OT: Poetic Justice for Terrorists
 

Maybe you've heard this already, but...
What should be done to bin Laden and his Al Queda associates if they are caught alive? Executing them would just make them martyrs. Imprisoning them would just encourage hostage-taking to gain their release. Instead, they should be taken to a top US medical facility, and complete sex-change operations should be performed. Then they should be released back into Afghanistan to live under Taliban rule as women.

maybe we should just imprision them, and make all their meals pork. they can either starve, or be heathens.

Re: OT: Poetic Justice for Terrorists
 

Oh you are sooooooooooooooo cold. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif Sounds good to me, but while they are under going this sex change, give them nothing to eat but PORK. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

This is a good idea but does not quite go far enough. They could just refuse to eat the pork. There is a precedent for what you are suggesting, though.

They had a problem with Muslim 'mokers' (from which the English term 'amok' comes, I am told) when the Philippines were... 'acquired' from Spain. And there is a signifgant Muslim minority in the southern islands. Some of these guys would work themselves into a berserk frenzy and could not be stopped by the tactics that would work against your average fighter. The 'sledgehammer' .45 was introduced at this time as one way to cope with the frenzied 'mokers' since it hit them hard enough to actually knock them down. The way they finally convinced the Muslim extremists in the southern Philippines to stop resisting was to use their religious zeal against them. They would capture them alive (not easy but possible) and wrap them in the skin of a freshly killed pig -- then hang them up in a public square somewhere to die of exposure, thirst, and starvation. Since any contact with pigs was horribly polluting, and required all sorts of religious purification, it was a sure ticket to the Muslim hell to die in this state. As more and more 'mokers' were hung up in pigskins this idea of becoming a 'moker' became less and less appealing.

Maybe we should do something similar with Usama if we can get him alive. Wrap him in a pigskin and hang him up in a public square somewhere...

Y'know, not to be a party pooper--I do understand where y'all are coming from--but there's this little thing called the Geneva Convention. Not to mention that doing this sort of thing would make us no better than they are.

LL &lt;-- preparing for flames.

Re: OT: Poetic Justice for Terrorists
 

No flames. It's good to keep things in perspective. However, the Afghans are not signators of the Geneva Convention. They torture their prisoners, skin them alive, and when they get bored they just cut their throats. War is not about being polite, it's about winning. Cruelly and ruthlessly. The sqeamish always lose.

Re: OT: Poetic Justice for Terrorists
 

Yeah, no flames, except for the terrorists. They can burn in hell.

The suggestion is partly facetious, of course. This is a different era than the one where 'mokers' were disgusted out of their rebellion. It would probably only make the other terrorists angrier if you did this, but you can imagine it. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif
