#1 Because Islam has no clear org chart, fatwas are only as good as Muslims think they are. So someone should create an imaginary "media Mufti" web page, designed to be seen by the Muslim public, about a very senior and respected imaginary scholar, with tens of thousands of (computer generated) followers.

Whenever some fanatical cleric issues a "murder fatwa", the "media Mufti" could issue a counter-fatwa, calling the fanatical cleric "A worshiper of Satan, trying to lure Muslims to damn their own souls by killing other Muslims." And that the fanatical cleric is instead who should be killed.

And that counter-fatwa would be followed by hundreds of computer generated "dittos" supposedly from his followers.

This would probably scare the snot out of the fanatical cleric, and encourage him to STFU.
