<Chechen Terrorists to be Buried in Pigskin <<Gosh.. sometimes the Russians make really jealous...>>> I agree Hawk [again]. See Lazarus, the USA can even learn from Russia. I really don't believe though that an innocent contact with pig parts would stop a Moslem going to Valhalla or wherever their section of the sky is located. For example, some Moslems here accidentally ate pizza with bacon in it [due to a mistake by the pizza place]. They tried to score a free trip to Mecca to gain absolution [or whatever they gain by way of cleansing]. They were turned down and the local Moslem know-hows pointed out that it wasn't necessary as there was no intention and some very simple mumbo jumbo was sufficient for cleansing. I don't think wrapping people in pigskin will achieve much other than wasting some perfectly good pigskin. Which is no doubt useful for something. But the ignorant Moslems might be put off by pig fat bullets or Mummy-wrapping with pigs' intestines or something. The leaders [who as with all religions are real con artists] wouldn't be tricked by such a ploy - they know it's all about money, power, girls etc and they won't give up their status because of a bit of pig skin.
