                    No, you're wrong. It shows that they know enough about their beliefs to know how to properly punish those responsible. Death is no punishment for these people, they choose it.

                          The beauty of it is, they aren't actually hurting anyone - you can't hurt someone who is dead. And yet, it will really put people off suicide missions. There will be no point if they won't get their percieved "reward". Could be very effective. Even if it only stops one terrorist attack, and saves one person's life, it will be worth it. :rose:

                                Hmmm, Not for me it isn't. I have scores of Muslim friends & clients and I don't hold them accountable for the lunatics at share the ethnic or religious background any more than they hold me accountable for the Timothy McVeigh's of the World. It's true that the Islamic extremists want to make you think it's about religion but for most I don't think it is. David

                                    That whole naked virgins thing cracks me up. Don't the islamofacists notice that their heaven is a whorehouse? Dave Huff Igor would you give me a hand with the bags? Certainly - you take the blonde and I'll take the one in the turban!

                                      :omg: Evidently, the Russians are going to bury the killed Chechen hostage takers in pigskin! Muslim jihad rebels believe they will ascend immediately to heaven as a result of their attacks. Howevr, being buried in a pigskin is supposed to prevent that. Obviously these guys are serious about sending a message [^] to terrorists. Cheers, Tom Archer Author - Inside C#, Visual C++.NET Bible

                                      I'm suprised they didn't feed them to pigs, ship what came out the other side back home, and charge the families for the cost of shipping.

                                        What a brilliant idea, should make terrorists think twice. I can't believe noone read this law and implimented it before. I wonder how one could secure a market in the pigskin market :~

                                        Russians have now patented pigskin as an anti islamic-terrorist device. :-D

                                          I don't think it will affect anything at all. The terrorists are merely costuming themselves in the religion. I doubt they have any real regard for it at all. They say Islam is a religion of peace, but every yahoo with a crate of AK-47s is declaring Jihads left and right. Go figure. Of course you know the terrorist leaders will come up with some story like, "Don't worry, little fanatic. Your soul can only be bound with pigskin if I bury you that way. The Infidel has no power over your soul. Now get going and kill yourself before I bury you in pigskin."

                                          "I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?" -xterm
