Yup. A loophole like "If you strap bombs to your chest and kill the enemy you can be buried in mohair jackets with porcupine quills and you will still go to heaven and enter into the Sacred Harem Of a Thousand Naked Virgins all at your service."

            IIRC a US general did the same on the Phillipines. Just once. No more muslim attacks under his reign Maybe a Urban Legend, though.

                                      :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 believe that the Russians did right. They have to explore every single way to prevent this from happening again. If this prevents another attack, nothing like it.
