#1 Flamethrowers will do that, though the proper word might be "melted".

#2 tu3031: I was thinking along the lines of George Orwell's "vaporize" from 1984.

#7 "grenade cup discharges"
Boy, that's a obsolete term. It's a early type of rifle grenade launcher, if I remember correctly. It was fixed on the end of a rifle, a mostly standard grenade dropped into it and it was propelled by a special blank cartridge. I didn't think anyone still used these things.

#9 After careful thought, I believe the need to "liquidate" Islamofascists is the right way to go. I've read somewhere that sonic waves, at the right intensity and frequency, will reduce all body cells to a slimey puddle, break the bones, and do other nasty things to the human body. Maybe this is what we need to do to these nutcases. Wonder how that fits with "Paradise" and the 72 raisins?

#10 The word "liquidate" sounds a lot less Darth Vader-y in Russian. It's the literal, direct translation of the word "likvidirovat", but I wonder what a more spin-friendly way to translate it might be. Neutralize?

#11 "special purpose police unit" -- commanded by Navin Johnson, I'm sure
