In a sweeping review of terrorism down the centuries, historian Michael Burleigh remarks upon Saudi Arabia's unique and enlightened approach to rehabilitating terrorists. "The Saudis stopped the spate of Jihadist attacks that hit them after 9/11 with a jail policy of killing terror by kindness. They taught tyro terrorists the error of their ways by bringing them together with Imams who point out that mass murder is un-Islamic heresy; while also re-connecting these alienated young men with the world of work and anchoring them in society by encouraging them to start families of their own."
