An Israeli Rabbi has suggested hanging bags of pig fat on buses to deter would be suicide bombers from boarding the bus. I believe the idea stems from the fact that muslims believe pigs to be unclean, and if you die in an unclean state you won't go to paradise. Interesting idea, I hope they give it a try.

I saw that on the news. Unfortunately, the Hamas/Hezbollah/Al Aqsa Brigade/PLO response was, "It will be an exercise in futility." I guess they can get some sort of dispensation for touching the unclean meat as long as they murder enough civilians.

A deterrent might be to never bury the remains of the bomber(s), but to simply move them into the desert to be consumed by the wildlife.

or in addition to leveling the home of bombers family - leveling the houses of all their relations and forcing all these people to live in a pig pen for 1 year.

That I can see working. They are willing to die in pig droppings but not live in them. One wouldn't have to even level homes; just put pigs in each home might just do it. I suggest you forward this to the UN - you should win a Nobel Peace Prize!!! After all, Arafat did and your idea is much more likely to work.:)

if they can distort the religion enough to justify bombing a bus full of civilians I am sure a bag of pig fat can be easily cast aside

Absolutely!

But, can they also condemn their families to live among the pig junk?

Oh, never mind.

Allah trumps family.

:mad:

Say they were to start hanging dead pigs around on buses,
And this did deter them from boarding
And bombing them
Won't they just find another populated place
and bomb that?

And if you are concealing a bomb
and plan to detonate it off of your own chest
are you really concerned
About the outcome of your remains?
And where they end up or
what type of ceremony
is held over them?

Maybe everyone should start concealing Pork
and make it a new custom
to carry it on your person.......
That way zealots and crazies
And suicide Psychos won't know
Who's packin pork and where the
Pork might be?

Just a thought.........only spewing here

Time for your medication. :D :cool:

I may have had too much already~~~:eek:

I hate when that happens!

But, as Mae West once said: "Too much of a good thing is wonderful!"

So, it all depends on the medication...:cool: !
