A German expert who evaluated six Minnesota men who pleaded guilty to trying to join the Islamic State group has developed counseling plans for each of them aimed at keeping them off the path of violence. He has also trained 20 to 25 local probation officers in his techniques.

Daniel Koehler, who directs the German Institute on Radicalization and De-radicalization Studies in Stuttgart, sat down with a small group of reporters Wednesday to discuss his work. He was joined by the chief U.S. probation officer for Minnesota, Kevin Lowry. […]

Minnesota is the first place in the U.S. to try it. Koehler said the U.S. is 16 to 20 years behind Europe but can catch up quickly. Authorities in other states are now closely watching to see what happens in Minneapolis, he said. …

We aren’t allowed to dehomsexualize homosexuals, but it’s OK to deradicalize radicals. Check.

What a coincidence!
I say it can work better in Germany.

And, of course, I am also an expert.
Just ask me.

Bullets are a faster and guaranteed way to de-radicalize.

Maybe I’m just stupid, but wouldn’t it be easier just to not let them in? Or to let people into the US who like the country and who will be assets to their fellow citizens?

Hey, this could be the next big home based business.

Retrain muzzies at home. What could possibly go wrong?

Reminds me of "Clockwork Orange."

...and that is why deradicalization will always fail because they will take the welfare money and still work for the imam.Oh for the good old days when you could call a spade a spade...

Back then, that cute huge intelligent-sounding word was called "tribute."

Which provoked one of our most famous and respected historical national quotes. From Congress!!!

"Millions for Defense.
Not one cent for tribute!"

Where has it worked?

Nowhere.

They LIE! THEIR RELIGION DEMANDS IT. They have at least four lying tactics outlined in the koran.

Al-taqiyaa, al-tariya, al-kitman, al-muruna.

How has that worked in his country?

There are places in Germany where the police don’t even want to go.

Don’t lecture us.

Granted we have those areas too, but we’re nor telling others it’s an easy issue to resolve.

Dr. Beretta and I would be glad to “counsel” them. Inexpensive. One session. Bit of a disposal problem, but hey, there are dumpsters everywhere.

The horror is that Germany is telling women go in groups, wear tennis shoes, wet yourself, avoid Muslim refugee centers - instead of giving them guns and permission to kill would be rapists.
I assure you that a few dozen dead would be rapists would stop the mass sexual assaults by Muslim men, regardless of the language they speak.
But instead, Germany tells its people to be victims, training them to Stockholm Syndrome in advance. And killing feminism in the name of multiculturalist tolerance.
