DENMARK LOSES MILLIONS IN HALAL BAN………

 

Halal just isn’t kosher.

halal fun

Comparing Halal to kosher slaughter is like comparing apples with oranges. Yes an animal is involved, but the similarities ends there.

Denmark set to lose millions following halal slaughter ban

RIYADH: RASHID HASSAN

Published — Sunday 23 February 2014

Denmark is likely to lose millions of dollars in trade and tourism revenues following its ban Monday on slaughtering animals in accordance with Islamic standards.

Halal (Islamically slaughtered) beef and poultry products are imported in large quantities by Saudi Arabia and neighboring Gulf countries. In fact, around 55 percent of Danish exports to the Kingdom are food-based.

The controversial decision is poised to have a drastic effect on the Danish market since the country is likely to come under a comprehensive boycott as it has on more than one occasion in the past.

The Danish government has already come under fire by religious rights groups in Denmark. Danish Halal, a nonprofit group, has described the ban as a “clear infringement of religious freedom.” The ban has also been branded “anti-Semitic” by Jewish leaders.
Dan Jorgensen, Danish food minister, responded to the criticism on Denmark’s TV2, saying “Animal rights come before religion.”

The decision effectively ends the sale of halal products, much to the anger of residents across the Kingdom.

    Since halal certification requires muslim employment, seems like a win/win situation for Denmark. Killing the Danish halal meat industry should inspire the certifying butchers and their local customers to leave Denmark to seek a weaker- more islamophilic society to invade. This should also inspire Saudis to get off their hindquarters and become self-sufficient. But we all are aware such blasphemy about self-sufficiency within the devout submission cult hasn’t gained traction in – what? 1400 years and isn’t likely to change within our lifetimes. Yet, one can dream.

  2. What will the Muslims do? Starve themselves? lol

    As World’s Kids Get Fatter, Doctors Turn to the Knife
    Obesity rates are soaring in Saudi Arabia and other wealthy Gulf states, leading to a boom in bariatric surgery on children.

    “RIYADH, Saudi Arabia— Daifailluh al-Bugami was just a year old when his parents noticed that his lips turned blue as he slept at night. It was his weight, doctors said, putting pressure on his delicate airways.

    Now Daifailluh is 3, and at 61 pounds he is nearly double the typical weight of a child his age. So the Bugamis are planning the once unthinkable: To have their toddler undergo bariatric surgery to permanently remove part of his stomach in hopes of reducing his appetite and staving off a lifetime of health problems.

    That such a young child would be considered for weight-loss surgery—something U.S. surgeons generally won’t do—underscores the growing health crisis here and elsewhere in the Middle East. Widespread access to unhealthy foods, coupled with sedentary behavior brought on by wealth and the absence of a dieting and exercise culture, have caused obesity levels in Saudi Arabia and many other Gulf states to approach or even exceed those in Western countries.

    Obama to Visit Saudi Arabia in March posted January 31, 2014 06:59 p.m.

    “President Barack Obama is preparing to visit Saudi Arabia in March for a summit with King Abdullah in a bid to smooth relations with the U.S.’s most important Arab ally.”

    Imagine “Me”chelle introducing her “let’s move” intiative (complete with Beyonce style gyrations) to the House of Saud to address their consumption issue.

  4. About time too. Any loss in sales to uncaring people will soon be made up by sales to people who wish food animals to stunned first.

    The human obligation to sentient animals at point of slaughter overrides “religious”
    cruel dogma, after all WHO are those sub human Muslims to lecture ANY living thing about the evils of cruelty – LOOK to YOUR record muslim filth.
