"PRAY FOR MY MARTYRDOM"
Those words were uttered by a suicide bomber just hours before he was planning to blow himself up taking large numbers of civilians with him. This is hugely important because it shows that martyrdom is not an automatic process. If it was automatic, ie murder civilians and you'll automatically go to heaven and receive seventy-two virgins, why ask a colleague to pray for your martyrdom?
It occurs to me that if a person can pray for another's entry into heaven, he can equally pray for their entry to HELL. Personally I'm not into such concepts but two billion Christians, one billion Moslems and several million Jews are.
The important thing to remember here is that Christians, Moslems and Jews all worship the same God! And therefore - according to believers - God listens equally to all of them.
So here's my plan. Moslems are forever telling us how moderate they are and how they abhor terrorism, so they can participate in this plan along with Christians and Jews. But even if they're lying to us and they secretly approve of the murder of civilians, Moslems are outnumbered by two to one!

Fundamentalist Christians will have no qualms about praying to God and requesting that terrorists be condemned to hell. More moderate Christians might hesitate before wishing such a fate on someone, no matter how evil that person. Moderate Christians can simply ask God to apply his "eye for an eye" law as stated in the Bible, or simply ask God to deal with the terrorist as he sees fit. That in itself should be enough to strike fear into the heart of a would-be terrorist.
These sad creeps who strap bombs to themselves or who blow themselves up with car bombs do so because they have been brainwashed by evil hate-filled monsters. Christians and Jews should refer to such manipulators as Satanists, disciples of the Devil.
Remember, the thing here is to cast doubt on the certainty of martyrdom. Make it a touch or go sort of thing in the mind of a would-be bomber. If he believes that instead of seventy-two virgins he'll get seventy-two vipers, poisonous serpents that will bite him every day, all day, throughout all of eternity, he'll think twice before murdering innocent people.
Remember, it's all in the mind. They commit atrocities because they've been brainwashed to believe a particular fiction. They have become convinced that God - creator of the universe - wants them to murder innocent men. women and children. We must convince them that they have been lied to by "Satanists" and that the reward for mass murder is an eternity spent writhing in the flames of hell along with seventy-two poisonous vipers!
