Ya know, if there was the discipline of the old place in use, I'd give money for this to happen.

A senior French politician has called for Devil’s Island to be reopened – as a prison for jihadis returning to Europe after travelling abroad to fight.

Nicolas Dupont-Aignan – who stood as a candidate for the French presidency in 2012 – believes that the former penal colony in South America would be a fitting place for ‘the madmen’ who have fought with radical groups such as Islamic State (IS) and Al Qaeda.

The island in French Guiana is notorious as the place where French army officer Alfred Dreyfus was unjustly held at the end of the 19th Century after being accused of treason, and as the location of the 1973 film Papillon, starring Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman.

Mr Dupont-Aignan – the founder of the right-wing DLF party and an affiliate to the UMP, the party of the former French president Nicolas Sarkozy – admitted the proposal would ‘cause a stir’, but insisted it had widespread support. It is the latest suggested solution for the problem of what to do with returning jihadis. In Britain, there have been demands for extremists to be denied re-entry into the country.

Referring to the official name for Devil’s Island, Mr Dupont-Aignan said he ‘proposes the re-establishment of a Cayenne detention centre which would allow us to permanently isolate the madmen’.

I say we find where the island of Atlantis disappeared to, and send 'em all there.

Wow, just wow.  Who would have ever thought of sending Muslim Terrorists to an isolated island prison?  What sort of DUmbass would it take to think that releasing those prisoners is a good idea?
