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. …

It is not working in “Europe”, Koehler. You have egg on your face and don’t even realize it; better hope it stays egg and not blood.

Why certainly it can! We’ll use the same technique we used with the Nazis. 230 grain FMJ and it worked every time.

The only effective way to “de-radicalize” the terrorists, is to kill them.

It is impossible to take the jihad out of Islam.

The only solution is to remove Islam.

Anyone who thinks sharia will play nice with others is part of the problem.

So can deportation, firing squads, and a host of other remedies, and probably with better success rates on top of it.

It is not just deradicalization but foreign governments controling mosques and followers. These people simply do not want to tackle that dimension and that is why deradicalization will always fail because they will take the welfare money and still work for the imam

Why didn’t they deradicalize Charlie Manson, then? He never personally killed anyone.

Why would anyone want to “de-radicalize” someone? I’d just shoot the ISIS murderers and let the buzzards take care of their remains.

For me 10-mm Auto deradicalization works best. 100% compliance.

This is true:

1. Sensory deprivation tank.
2. 4-way hit of window pane.
3. Yes in surround sound in their native language.
4. Appropriate imagery to match #3 to project them into the Door.

De-radicalizing radical Muslims can work in US.

Navy SEALs have succeeded with many thousands of radicals, as have Predator drones, the US Marines, and various other groups within our military. If things go unexpectedly badly with our overwhelmingly young, healthy, and male “refugees”, I am confident that the appropriate military approach to de-radicalizing them would work just fine.

The staging area for deradicilization should be Eurasia, not here.
