#4 "It's their right to have the body of their relative," he added.

No it isn't. The dead body of a terrorist should be declared state's evidence in the commission of a crime. The corpse should be disposed of in a bulk process that makes the remains unidentifiable. Preferably a group cremation or something like it. [Insert roast pig references here.] The penalty for participating in terrorist activities is that your body will not be buried according to religious traditions. No memorial for family or colleague to revere and mourn over, diddlysquat. This is one significant way to begin attaching a price tag to terrorism. I'd like to see it become standard practice.

In this particular case where, they were able to trade live bodies for a dead one, I'd go through with the trade and then confiscate or exhume the body as needed for evidence in an extortion plot, which is what it is. And no whingeing about cruel and unusual punishment either. After all, the relations of bomb vest murderers don't ask for the chunks and gobbets of flesh afterwards. (And if they do, they should be denied as well.) The criminal is already dead and was involved in inflicting cruel and unusual punishment as a matter of habit. Family members should feel compelled to dissuade relatives they know to be involved in terrorism if only so that they may finally bury them properly.

#6 I'd say, mix with nuclear waste and store in a nuclear waste dump. That way, no one will ever be able to visit.
