Can terrorists be rehabilitated with kindness? On Friday, May 22 at 8:30 PM (check local listings) NOW on PBS partners with best-selling author and journalist Robert Lacey (The Kingdom, Majesty) to investigate the surprising success of Saudi Arabia's approach to dealing with terrorists and extremists -- without torture or water-boarding.

Lacey was given extraordinary access to terrorist rehabilitation classes and camps that use "soft policing" tactics to be nice to the bad guys. Some call them "terrorist resorts."

Is this rehab program working? And can we trust the Saudis to protect themselves and us against the threat of Islamic extremism in the future? Watch this NOW on PBS report for a surprising perspective on terrorism you've never seen before.
