Islam forbids swine blood or flesh. Muslims are repulsed by pigs. Here’s a question that I posed to the Department of Defense (but never received an answer):
If the body of a dead terrorist were to be soaked in pig’s blood and/or wrapped in swine flesh and then buried, would this act of desecration deny the terrorist entry into paradise?
I know this question sounds insane. But is it any more insane than the Islamic mind-set that believes heavenly rewards are awaiting those Muslim martyrs who kill themselves along with dozens of unsuspecting “infidels”?
Perhaps the only way we can terrorize the terrorists is by using their own insane ideas against them.
There is a story I read in the Wall Street Journal several years ago about this very same idea. It seems that during the U.S. military campaigns in the Phillipines during the early part of the 20th century, General John “Blackjack” Pershing was in command. His troops were continuouly attacked by Muslim fanatics using guerrilla warfare tactics. At one point, Pershing’s men captured six of these guerrillas. He had them lined up and with great ceremony, he dipped the firing squad’s bullets into a container of pig’s blood and then had five of them shot. The sixth was allowed to escape back into the jungle. Guerrilla attacks ceased almost immediately.
Could this same tactic work now? The U.S. military could publicize the fact that all ammunition used in our war on terror would be laced with some type of swine flesh.
Again, I know I sound like a nut case, but as I stated above, we’re dealing with insanity. At least insanity sounds more sympathetic than calling them what they truly are: Bronze age, barbaric savages.
Closed duplicate thread.
