Groups like that typically have a core with a number of insane leaders they just have to be locked up, key thrown away, but most of the people around it are just… well, lost, really. These are people that really feel they’re thr good guy, trying to protect from what they’ve been taught is evil.
Show then they’re wrong. Show them that the evil doesn’t really exist but in their heads. You can talk with them, at least TRY to reason with them…
You can’t use reason to convince someone out of a position they didn’t reason their way into… I agree that should still be the first step, but I wouldn’t expect it to work for the majority of them. Cognitive dissonance is a bitch to overcome, especially if they aren’t willing to accept the possibility they might be wrong.
Tal with them.

What’s the alternative?
Jail them? Forever? If not, one day they’ll be free and angrier than ever.
Deport them? Where?
Ignore them? That doesn’t sound like a good idea either
The only real solution I see is reason with them. It’ll be hard, it’ll be stupid, bit I don’t see ma y other solutions
