This story explains how American children are being sent to Pakistan to be brainwashed in “Taliban-backed madarsa”:
A Pakistani filmmaker has launched a campaign to secure the release of 78 American teenagers from a Taliban-backed madarsa in the country and asked the US to step in to check students enrolment in radical seminaries to close ”the pipeline to jihad”.
…
Raza’s film focuses on Noor Elahi Khan, 17, and Mahboob Elahi Khan, 16, the two brothers from Atlanta who were forced to study at Jamia Binoria.
When he met them three years ago, the brothers wanted to take the ”first plane back to America”.
Three years later, the boys had been ”brainwashed” and said the madarsa had made them ”better human beings”.
The siblings, who were enrolled in Jamia Binoria, considered one of the most radical seminaries in Pakistan, in August 2004, were well into their high school years when they were sent to Pakistan by their father.
”I am grateful for the safe return of the two American children to Atlanta from a Taliban-backed madarsa but the mullah claims to have up to 78 more in his institution. The headmaster comes to the US once a year and personally recruits.
Be clear about how dangerous this could be. We cannot restrict the movement of American citizens who have not committed a crime. And these young men are going to come back and take up life in America. Will this life include recruiting other young men into Jihad? Will they be trained in the manner of explosives? I honestly do not know - they may just become devout believers in Islam.
What I do know is someone is very concerned for these children. Is it really a stretch to believe some Islamist parents would hand their children over to radicals to be ticking time bombs? If you are familiar with Palestinian propaganda that leads parents to send their kids to be suicide bombers, the concept is not all that hard to believe. Especially when we have reports of al-Qaeda recruiting children already:

I am sorry to straightaway comment that this observation is a stinking rubbish. Brainwashing is an altogether scientific subject and it is being experimented in developed world through specific 3-D electromagnetic induction with controlled periodicity on the subject. Brainwashing through religious teaching is a misconception which should be understood by the West that it is simply not there. (I would rather appreciate that writer has himself opined that they could become pious and true muslims with correct dogma embedded within their brains/minds).
At least I am not going to buy the above-cited idea. All sensible people would tend to agree with me (if not hundred percent, maybe, 60% plus).
I would however listen to logical reasoning if someone has different view.
