Germany’s deradicalization programs are under fire after a 21-year-old attacker on a Berlin Pride parade was enrolled — but wasn’t truly committed to leaving extremism. Experts reveal this isn’t new: programs helping people exit Islamist radicalization struggle when participants aren’t genuinely seeking change, especially as younger people are radicalizing faster through social media. These long, often seven-year journeys require deep commitment — and without them, what’s the alternative for those leaving prison? Successes are quietly fading into the background. Radicalization is fueled by personal crises and exploited by extremist groups offering belonging and simplicity. Yet, with looming budget cuts, organizations risk spending more time fundraising than helping — jeopardizing vital, long-term support for those trying to break free.
