France to reassign jihad-inclined Muslim public servants to jobs that do not involve public contact
“Making it easier to reassign public servants that show signs of radicalisation to jobs that do not involve contact with the public.”
That’s one of the key elements of France’s new “deradicalization” program: not to try to change the jihadi’s mind, but just to move him out of sight. But what about his off-hours?
More on this story. “French prime minister unveils new deradicalisation programme,” France 24, February 23, 2018 (thanks to Blazing Cat Fur):
The French government unveiled new deradicalisation plans on Friday, including isolating extremists within prisons and opening centres dedicated to reintegrating former radicals into society….Other measures announced by Philippe include:
- Investments in psychological care for the children of returning jihadists. So far 68 children have been repatriated, most of them under 13.
- Tighter regulation of private Islamic schools, which have grown rapidly in number in recent years.
- More training for teachers to help them detect the early signs of radicalisation and debunk conspiracy theories.
- More investment in teaching students to separate fact from fiction on the internet.
- Making it easier to reassign public servants that show signs of radicalisation to jobs that do not involve contact with the public.
