A Threat of Pig Fat...
From the BBC News website. At the very least, the idea should score points for creativity:
Israeli police are to hang bags of pig lard on buses and in other public places to deter would-be Muslim suicide bombers, Israeli media have reported. ...
Rabbinical authorities sanctioned the plan to use the product - considered impure by Jews and Muslims - if it might save lives.
Officials hope the prospect of defiling their bodies with blown up pig lard might discourage would-be recruits.
And even more (?) outlandish:
The rabbi said if police do not enact the plan, tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews will arm themselves with guns capable of spraying liquid pig lard at suspects.
