NOW on PBS | Terrorist Rehab? | Preview | PBS

http://www.pbs.org/now Can terrorists be rehabilitated with kindness? On Friday, May 22 at 8:30 PM (check local listings) NOW on PBS partners with best-selling author and journalist Robert Lacey (The Kingdom, Majesty) to investigate the surprising success of Saudi Arabia's approach to dealing with terrorists and extremists - without torture or water-boarding. Lacey was given extraordinary access to terrorist rehabilitation classes and camps that use "soft policing" tactics to be nice to the bad guys. Some call them "terrorist resorts."

Is this rehab program working? And can we trust the Saudis to protect themselves and us against the threat of Islamic extremism in the future? Watch this NOW on PBS report for a surprising perspective on terrorism you've never seen before.

live for nothing or die for something

I don't see anything wrong with rehabing these guys. USA or any other country should have no business to intervene. It is better than abusing them physically, sexually and discriminating them by not allowing them to practice their religious belief.

Well done to Saudi Arabia for helping these men to choose the right path instead of hanging them till death.

It is so not Islam but Saudis are doing a great job.

I hope we all work together to bring peace & not criticise others.

Saudi Arabia is the Third Reich of the Middle East. Just look at their 'soft-invasion' of Egypt. The takeover of Egyptian media.

Let's produce our own oil for F***'s sake!

He's a peaceful wolf ... lol ... It seems Jihad's are similar to Pirates which act on best interest of a country yet no visible ties to the country allowing the countries best interest to be confronted without official war being declared
