“Deradicalization” programs are a joke to begin with. They don’t work. But in this case, that’s beside the point. The apparent fact that British authorities don’t dare to require these jihadis to participate in their programs is an indication of the weakness and impotence of the British state in the face of the advancing jihad.
“Convicted Islamic terrorists ‘refusing’ to be deradicalised in UK prisons,” by Aden-Jay Wood, GBN, August 9, 2022:
Convicted Islamic terrorists are refusing to be deradicalised in UK prisons, an investigation has revealed.
The investigation, carried out by chief inspector of prisons Charlie Taylor, found that almost all Islamic terrorists being held in separation units at UK prisons “refused to take part in purposeful activity”.
The report said that prisoners at the units, which are used to stop people radicalising others, are not willing to take part in education sessions.
It said: “Almost all prisoners refused to take part in purposeful activity, complete offending behaviour work or engage with others such as imams and psychologists.”
Following their refusal to take part in the sessions, prisoners have had limited “day-to-day interactions” with staff, with some staying in their cells for up to 22 hours a day.
This also led to a “lack of trust” in staff, which has “further impeded interactions,” the report added.
Prisoners were also offered two deradicalisation programmes but “given their well-established religious and political beliefs and the potential peer pressure from their fellows, this was too big a step for most prisoners.”
The report continued: “The expectation that men should address their offending behaviour by completing a formal intervention aimed at deradicalising their beliefs was proving unrealistic,” as quoted by The Telegraph.
Mr Taylor called on prison officers to set more “realistic and achievable” targets in order to help the terrorists “take smaller steps towards progression and behaviour change”….
