I got this in an email today.  It's so crazy it just might work:

An Israeli friend recently informed me that the UK fought the Islamic terrorist attacks by burying the criminals with a pig. Apparently the Islamic belief is that if ones' body is buried with a pig (because they are considered unclean) their soul will go to hell. I did a little research into this subject matter and found it to be true. This got me thinking. If we put a baby pig on every airline flight then all suicide terrorists would abort their missions as they would not want their souls to go to hell. Additionally, if we drop shipped, oh say, 100,000 pigs into Afghanistan I think our recon and assault efforts may be more successful. Apparently Muslims dislike the very site of pigs A LOT! They are also adamantly opposed to alcohol, thus we spike their water supply with a few thousand gallons of moonshine, get them drunk and turn the pigs loose. The war would be over in a weekend.

why a pig? A big ol' can of lard would be enough. they wouldn't do it though, non-terrorists muslims would object

See the conspiracy theory comes into focus now. I recall a case this year of a civil suit to force airlines to allow pigs on planes. Remember the lady had the pet pig it was all over the news. It was intended to warm us up to the idea of pigs patrolling the airplanes for terrorists lol!! Pilots are too dangerous with guns lets just use some potbelly pigs!! [:D]

Yeah, the Jews will love that too.  They don't even want to fly over graveyards, much less (I'm sure) with pigs.

News story on the graveyards thing, expires two weeks from today:

Incidentally, a little less than a year ago, some shithead managed to convince a bunch of airline workers that her potbellied pig was a "service animal" and so should be allowed in the passenger cabin.  Here's the highlights:

Well, there's no regulations against me bringing a can of Spam aboard the plane, is there? I could just lower my seat-back tray, place the can on it for everyone to see, and set back to enjoy an uneventful flight!
