It doesn't matter where in the world you are, the issue with forcibly deporting people is always the same: what do you do if the country you want to deport them to refuses to take them?

And the only answers I can see are let them go free in your country or keep them locked up indefinitely.

And it's kind if shitty to try to just throw the problem at another country.

Not really, if you just gather all the people you commit atrocities against, and send them to the middle east, you might get away with it. Hell you might even claim to be a bastion of peace and freedom.

Some more ideas:

Call the people you sent "civilized" against "barbarians"

Call them "the only democracy" in the middle east (you might need to overthrow some government in the nearby regions)

Commit more atrocities so more and more people go to your "solution".

That is true. The swedish government is pushing quite hard to overfill prisons, probably in a long term plan to force it towards privatization. So I would not be surprised if it is even part of the plan.

But, also, I think one strategy suggested is just paying them. Threaten with prison, see at what price they break.

Find a third country is also possible, but can be difficult for terrorist supporters.

It can be difficult period. Why should any country take immigrants your country doesn't want for any reason?

And "terrorist supporter" could be a very broad category. Are you a terrorist supporter if you support resistance against Israeli troops in Gaza? Because Israel and some of its allies would say yes.
