Well, not quite:
Saudi Arabia opens Luxury Rehab Center for Qaeda terrorists
Saudi Arabia is hoping to wean jailed al-Qaeda terrorists off religious extremism with counseling, spa treatments and plenty of exercise at a Luxury Rehabilitation Center in Riyadh.
"In order to fight terrorism, we must give them an intellectual and psychological balance... through dialogue and persuasion,"
"To treat the problem at its root, one should challenge jihadist thought with an enlightened philosophy, not just with other Salafist ideas that are only slightly less extreme,"
"There must be pluralism and an acknowledgement of the rights of others to be different."
In between sessions with counselors and talks on religion, prisoners will be able to relax in the center's facilities which include an Olympic-size indoor swimming pool, a sauna, gym and a television hall. During the day, the prisoners will attend seminars on religious affairs, aimed at steering them away from thoughts of jihad.
[A] total of 2,336 al-Qaeda prisoners have now been through Saudi rehabilitation schemes. The percentage of those who rejoin the deviant minority does not exceed 10%
Now, why didn't America think of this? A little swimming, some lectures by Chabad on the Seven Mitzvos Bnei Noah, and tasty gourmet meals!
