China using conversion therapy to turn radical Muslims into happy communists
American Thinker ^ | 05/18/2018 | Ed Straker

Is being a radical Islamist something you are born with or a disease that can be cured?  China is betting on the latter, which is why it sends radical Muslims to brainwashing camps to wash away all their "Muslimness"...and turn them into happy communists!

Hour upon hour, day upon day, Omir Bekali and other detainees in far western China's new indoctrination camps had to disavow their Islamic beliefs, criticize themselves and their loved ones and give thanks to the ruling Communist Party.

"The psychological pressure is enormous, when you have to criticize yourself, denounce your thinking – your own ethnic group," said Bekali, who broke down in tears as he described the camp[.] ... Detainees who most vigorously criticize the people and things they love are rewarded[.] ...

Internees would wake up together before dawn, sing the Chinese national anthem, and raise the Chinese flag at 7:30 a.m.  They gathered back inside large classrooms to learn "red songs" like "Without the Communist Party, there is no New China," and study Chinese language and history.  They were told that the indigenous sheep-herding Central Asian people of Xinjiang were backward and yoked by slavery before they were "liberated" by the Communist Party in the 1950s.

Before meals of vegetable soup and buns, the inmates would be ordered to chant: "Thank the Party! Thank the Motherland! Thank President Xi!"

If you read the article, you will see that Bekali and all the Muslims being held were 100% innocent of any wrongdoing.

Of course.

Exit question: Do you think a program of repetition and self-criticism like this, modified to teach Islamists the joys of capitalism and Western freedoms, could work in America and Europe on radical Muslims?

The cure to Islam is one of two things.

Jesus

Bullet

If we don’t let them come here we don’t need conversion therapy. We need deportation therapy.

The Russian Soviets tried this for 75 years, on the surface it worked (unlike Christianity, the Koran actually encourages Muslims to lie about their faith to avoid persecution...until they work their way into positions of power where they can impose it everybody). However, as soon as the Soviet Union fell, radical Islam instantly returned as well.

While we are at it, can we consider deportation therapy for Communism? It is like prescribing Heroin for a Morphine addiction.

I think they call it a Doxie. There was a thread about a woman who was attacked by a pack of “Dachsunds”. Turns out they were something like this.

Conversion Therapy - i.e., bamboo shoots under the fingernails.

It looks like a pit bull with short legs. Did some moron take an unstable bread like a dachsund, and breed it with a feral bread like a Pit?

That person should be prosecuted for voluntary manslaughter.

Christians are also being sent to these camps. Apparently they aren’t newsworthy.
