The Dutch Parliament Has Banned Kosher Meat Slaughtering

Written by Marty Roberts on June 30, 2011 – 4:56 pm -

Another step designed to make Europe Judenrein (again)…this time, a bit more subtle, but no less effective in terms of the end result…
The ban may have been directed against Muslims, but the Jews will suffer…

kosher meat

Our Creator’s goal, as expressed in the Torah, is for the Jews to live in the Land of Israel.
Once, inheriting Israel was considered a gift…It was a PUNISHMENT for he Jews to have to live in foreign lands, outside of Israel.
Today, the punishment is over…time for the Jews to come home…If we do not get the message on our own, the Master of the Universe sometimes nudges us in the right direction…

Spoiler for my friends, the Dutch Jews: It’s REAL easy to get kosher meat in your REAL home, Israel…Hint, Hint…


Dutch approve ban on animal slaughter



Holland’s parliament votes in favor of move strongly opposed by Muslim and Jewish minorities, but leaves loophole that may let religious butchering continue


Reprinted from ynetnews.com

The Dutch parliament voted on Tuesday to ban ritual slaughter of animals, a move strongly opposed by the country’s Muslim and Jewish minorities, but left a loophole that might let religious butchering continue.

The bill by the small Animal Rights Party, the first such group in Europe to win seats in a national parliament, passed the lower house of parliament by 116 votes to 30. It must be approved by the upper house before becoming law.

It stipulates that livestock must be stunned before being slaughtered, contrary to the Muslim halal and Jewish kosher laws that require animals to be fully conscious.

“This way of killing causes unnecessary pain to animals. Religious freedom cannot be unlimited,” said Marianne Thieme, head of the Animal Rights Party, said before the vote. “For us religious freedom stops where human or animal suffering begins.”

In a rare show of unity, the Netherlands’ Muslim and Jewish communities – numbering about 1 million and 40,000 respectively in a total population of 16 million – have condemned the proposed ban as a violation of their religious freedom.

“The very fact that there is a discussion about this is very painful for the Jewish community,” Netherlands Chief Rabbi Binyomin Jacobs told Reuters.

“Those who survived the (second world) war remember the very first law made by the Germans in Holland was the banning of schechita or the Jewish way of slaughtering animals.”

Uca Octay of Rotterdam’s Islamic University said: “We will have to import halal meat from neighboring countries or find another way to meet the needs of the Muslim population.”

Pain impossible to prove

The law said religious groups could continue ritual slaughter if they proved it was no more painful than stunning, but it was not clear how to do this. The Jewish community has challenged a study on animal pain used to support the ban.

“This is absolutely impossible to prove,” Jacobs said. “You can’t ask the animal how it feels afterwards.”

Britain’s Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks visited the Netherlands last week to lobby against the law, arguing that pre-stunning failed in up to 10 percent of cases and that caused more pain than the swift cutting of the throat by a razor-sharp knife.

Philip Carmel, International Relations Director for the Conference of European Rabbis in Brussels, stressed the upper house of parliament could still reject the law. “We believe the Dutch parliament and people, who have a history of tolerance, will see sense and make the right decision,” he said.

Dutch Muslims, mostly of Turkish and Moroccan origin, have complained they felt stigmatized by the planned ban, debated amid growing support for anti-Islam populist Geert Wilders.

A court cleared Wilders last week of charges of hate speech against Muslims. His Freedom Party has supported the ban.

“There was no reason for passing this law,” said Imam Mahmut of the El Tawheed mosque in Amsterdam. “This is a political decision. Who has the authority to determine whether the way of killing animals is good or not?”

European restrictions

European Union regulations require animals to be stunned before killing but allow exceptions for ritual slaughter, which the European Court of Human Rights has ruled is a religious right. Animal rights activists insist this is inhuman.

Carmel said the European Parliament last week rejected a bid by animal rights advocates to have kosher and halal meat specially labeled as coming from unstunned animals.

Luxembourg, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland ban ritual slaughter. Swiss animal rights groups and far-right politicians have called for a ban on imported halal and kosher meat.

Of the 500 million animals slaughtered annually for food in the Netherlands, only 1.2 million animals are slaughtered according to Muslim or Jewish traditions, Dutch statistics show.

Palestinians Let Their Humanitarian-Aid-Provided Meat Go Rotten..Then They Try and Sell It to the Jews

Written by Marty Roberts on April 9, 2010 – 10:26 am -

First, taxpayers’ money is used to supply “aid” to the supposedly hungry palestinians. Next, those in charge of seeing to it that the “aid” gets to those that need it botch the job…the meat designated for the hungry palestinians goes rotten. Not wanting to miss an opportunity to put their foreign aid to good use, not to mention an opportunity for corrupt palestinian officials to pocket a few bucks, the palestinians brilliantly decide to try and sell the rotten meat to the Jews. If we can’t eat it, at least it might make some Jews REALLY sick!! What more could you ask for?
A palestinian dream come true…
Unfortunately for said palestinian creeps…BUSTED!!! (by the Jews)

Seized Rotten Meat

Seized Rotten Meat..Destined by the Palestinians for Jewish Stomachs



Smuggling of stale meat from PA foiled



Poultry Council inspectors seize van carrying 1.5 tons of rotten beef from Palestinian Authority on eve of Passover. Meat originally transferred to Palestinians as humanitarian gesture from Brazil

The Poultry Council’s enforcement unit this week thwarted the smuggling of 1.5 tons of rotten meat from the Palestinian Authority into Israel. The beef was transferred to the Palestinians as a humanitarian gesture from Brazil, but after it went bad, they decided to try to market it in Israel.

The stale meat was seized Saturday night, after Poultry Council inspectors spotted a Toyota van making its way from Umm Reihan to Barta’a in the Wadi Ara region.

The inspectors, who were waiting to catch egg smugglers, realized that the vehicle was making its way to northern Israel with goods from the territories. “The vehicle appeared to be sinking as the merchandise was so heavy,” said Tomer Rahamim of the enforcement unit.

‘Gastric trouble avoided’

The inspectors ordered the driver to stop near a Border Guard base in Harish, and found 70 boxes inside the vehicle, carrying 24 kilograms of meat each.

The van’s driver said he was asked to transfer the goods from a truck which came from the territories to a truck on Highway 65 in Wadi Ara. According to Rahamim, “The driver said the truck waiting for him on the road was to market the meat in the northern region.”

The driver, a resident of the Arab town of Tayibe, was detained for questioning and will be indicted in the coming days. The rotten meat was handed over to the Agriculture Ministry and was destroyed. An examination revealed that it was transferred to the PA from Brazil.

“They took the good meat, and tried to market the meat that went bad. They replaced the old stickers with a new expiry date,” said Rahamim. “This meat is kept and transported without any veterinary conditions, and when it reaches restaurants and stores the buyer has no idea where it came from. I assume that had the meat reached its destination, many people would have suffered from gastric trouble during Passover.”

Members of the Poultry Council’s enforcement unit are working day and night to prevent the smuggling of eggs from the PA into Israel. Some 6,000 eggs caught on three different occasions this week have been destroyed.
