Somali Muslim Ali Harbi Ali, who murdered MP David Amess, is “said to have previously been referred to an anti-extremism programme called Prevent, which aims to stop people from going on to become terrorists.”
The inconvenient truth is that no Western program without a truthful understanding of the jihadist mindset could possibly “prevent” some Muslim youths from turning to jihad. Accordingly, deradicalization programs across the board have proven to be a woeful failure. Countless studies and investigations have uncovered jihad preaching and teaching emerging from the Internet and from foreign-funded mosques and Islamic centers. Meanwhile, British prisons have been dubbed “jihadi training camps.” These instruments of dahwah drill into young minds the rewards of Islamic martyrdom. Even the “support programmes” which are being recommended by police and security-focused agencies will prove to be useless against this appeal.
A whole new government approach is needed, including managing borders and diligently cracking down on the spread of jihad preaching, neither of which is Britain doing.
“MI5 ‘should have more control over Prevent,’” by Matt Dathan, Fiona Hamilton, and Jonathan Ames, The Times, October 20, 2021:
MI5 and counterterrorism police should be given a greater say on whether people at risk of radicalisation are placed on anti-extremism programmes, an overhaul of government strategy will recommend.
The role of community representatives such as teachers, NHS workers and religious leaders should be limited in deciding when an individual should be pursued, the independent review of the Prevent scheme is expected to say.
Sources familiar with the review have told The Times that it will criticise the multi-agency approach to decision-making as too soft on intervention.
Police are continuing to question Ali Harbi Ali, 25, a British-born Muslim of Somali descent, over the fatal stabbing of the Conservative MP Sir David Amess at his constituency surgery.

The panel, that assesses jihadists and the dangers they pose to society, should be composed of people who are NOT beginners, but EXPERTS on JIHADISM, people who have years of study on jihadic terrorism. They will know immediately the risk posed by a young Muslim who is toying with jihadism. A beginner will have NO IDEA what they are looking at. An ex-jihadist would be one of the best-equipped to assess the danger on the basis that ‘it takes one to know one’.

If this is what happens when you defund and replace the police with Prevent/social worker crime control, I’am supporting the POLICE. I’d like to see a legitimate study of the actual results from social counselors in converting criminals into upright citizens and how many go back to criminal lives?
