The 18-year-old Iraqi refugee suspected of planting the Parsons Green ‘bucket bomb’ was reported to the government’s Prevent de-radicalisation scheme just months ago, it has been claimed.
Deradicalization programs are an abject failure. For any rehab program to work, there must be a willingness for the participant to change. Yet jihadis deem themselves to be heroes and zealously pursue martyrdom, which comes with plaudits of heroism and paradisal awards beyond this world.
Less than a year ago, France’s deradicalization program was declared a failure after wasting tens of millions of taxpayer euros. It was found that “deradicalization, either in prisons or the centers… does not work because the great majority of Islamic fundamentalists do not want to be deradicalized.”
Recently in the Netherlands, a “deradicalized” jihadist was also discovered to be spreading jihad messages to young Muslims.
Meanwhile, British police have arrested a third man in connection with the Parsons Green tube bombing.
“Claim: Suspected Refugee Terrorist Reported to De-Radicalisation Scheme Months Before Attack”, by Liam Deacon, Breitbart, September 19, 2017:
The 18-year-old Iraqi refugee suspected of planting the Parsons Green ‘bucket bomb’ was reported to the government’s Prevent de-radicalisation scheme just months ago, it has been claimed.
The teenager was being fostered by a couple in Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey, and was said to have been a troublemaker who was arrested just two weeks before the attack.
The improvised explosive device with a timer partially detonated at Parsons Green station on Friday morning, injuring around 30 people. Islamic State has claimed responsibility.
On Monday night, sources told the Daily Mail that the youth’s behaviour was so alarming before the attack he was reported to Prevent, which aims to deter potential extremists from terrorism.
The referral was reportedly made several months ago through Surrey County Council, which was responsible for placing the teenager with Penny and Ronald Jones, the elderly couple who cared for him.

On Monday, it was reported that the couple, who have fostered hundreds of children, were not warned of the refugee’s troubled past, although they were aware he had been in Islamic State-controlled territory.

It is not clear what authorities did to de-radicalise the man and if the alleged referral was acted on at all.However, the claim will raise questions about whether the authorities could have done more, after U.S. President Donald Trump said the attacker was “in the sights of Scotland Yard”….
