Saudi Jihad Rehab Program

(Saudi Arabia) Terrorists who have been captured and imprisoned in Saudi Arabia can now enter the new jihadist rehabilitation program to rid themselves of their extremist thoughts.

From ITN:

Prisoners who are soon to be released are encouraged to swap their weapons for crayons and express themselves through art.


Class leader Dr Awad Alyami says the centre provides a crucial link between prison and the community for the ex-Jihads.

He said: "They came from a dark side. They got into a lot of problems and they got into trouble for it. They went into jail for a period of time and now they are in a rehabilitation centre where we are offering them help to adjust to society."

Golly gee whiz! It sounds so wonderful. I'm feeling a little mushy, a bit wispy and oh so moist. I'm fully deluded. Just think -- the terrorists will trade their explosives and automatic weapons for crayons. What a fantastic idea!

Who would have thought that crayons would win out against martyrdom and 72 virgins?
