Most Easter Lamb This Year Was Halal
Karen Lugo | American Thinker | 22 April 2012
Americans have a long history of rejecting coerced religion. From the Pilgrims who came for freedom of conscience to the colonists who decided that the free exercise of religion would be featured first in the Bill of Rights, the American claim to liberty has had religious freedom at its core.
That was then. Now, American shoppers seem oblivious to the fact that a strict religious code — highly objectionable to many — is being imposed upon the processing of American meat products.
![]() |
Halal certification of American meat products has largely escaped notice. Costco is one of America’s biggest lamb distributors in the United States, and all of Costco's lamb is processed according to halal standards. I interviewed the corporate buyer for Costco’s meat, and he explained that Costco’s halal lamb wholesale purchases are not responsive to Muslim pressure; instead, they are driven by overriding economic factors.
To Costco’s credit, the big-box chain is one of the few honest outlets, and it does display the halal certification stamp on the back of shrink-wrapped packages. When most of the world’s lamb is produced and processed in Australia and New Zealand — and when most of those plants have abandoned the practice of separate slaughterhouses in favor of accommodating the uncompromising demands of halal markets — it is easy to conclude that most of the lamb sold, even to large Western outlets, is halal-processed.
![]() Halal Slaughter |
The controversial method of slaughter by slitting an animal’s jugular so that death occurs by "bleeding out" is often done without first stunning the animal. Halal certification commissions have declared that cutting the jugular of an unconscious animal yields meat that is haram (unlawful or not permissible) according to sharia-based regulations. These halal oversight committees in places like Britain now forbid stunning before halal slaughter.
It is not surprising, then, that Brits were disturbed when the Farm Animal Welfare Council published a report on halal slaughter methods in 2003 declaring that "such a massive injury would result in very significant pain and distress in the period before insensibility supervenes." Some research indicates that proper methods for ritual slaughter like maintaining sharp knives and taking care to make a deep cut do alleviate animal suffering, but supervision and accountability, thus far, are just talk.
Currently a bill is pending in the U.K. to at least require honest labeling when halal processing methods are used. Recent public discussions indicate strong support for full disclosure and show that British consumers are anxious to vote with their pounds sterling when purchasing food products.
In addition to animal cruelty concerns, it is important to contemplate that every purchaser of halal products pays a surcharge for the processing concessions demanded by halal certification. In fact, an entire Islamic cottage industry has grown up around regulation of halal processing, and it is no insignificant enterprise. Clerically imposed sharia law requires that "the abattoir (agent of slaughter) involved in the process must be under the 'close and constant supervision' of an Islamic religious organisation." Also, the range of foods inspected for conformity with halal standards now includes cereals, beverages, and chocolate.
Soeren Kern reports that France’s halal industry has more than doubled over the past five years and is now valued at €5.5 billion ($7 billion). The sector is now more than twice as large as that for organic foods, and industry experts expect the demand for halal to grow at more than 20% annually.
Kern also refers to a significant new study on the rise of Islam in French cities to show that halal is increasingly being used to assert a separate Muslim identity. He cites the 2,200-page report titled "Banlieue de la République" ("Suburbs of the Republic"), the result of a one-year research effort into the four Is that constitute the heart of the debate over French national identity — Islam, immigration, identity, and insecurity — to show that the Islamist lobby is using halal to impose aspects of sharia law on the non-Muslim majority in France and other European countries.
Societies that initially embraced ritual slaughter — Belgium, the Netherlands, France, and the U.K. — have learned how halal killing customs become a wedge to deepen the cultural divide. Concern for animal suffering, sanitation problems caused by mass ritual slaughtering, and institutionalization of the halal lobby have motivated pending legislative responses in all of these countries.
While much participation in the United States has been unwitting, consumers at least deserve to know when they are purchasing meat that has been halal-certified.
For many Americans, the political aspects of this imposition are significant, but the religious offense of learning that food products have already been blessed by an "allahu akbar" Islamic chant before the family even sits down to say grace is reason enough to say no to halal products.

Are you saying that Muslims do not really care about the state of animals...... because almost all of them are not vegetarians nor raise and kill the animals themselves?
And also that muslims do not hunt with arrows or guns because the hunted bleed out?
Perhaps you should visit the abbatoir and redefine instant death, whether it is a poultry bird or sheeps and cows. What does the Kooraan say about the instant death of an adult camel upon slaughter.
Enough of rubbish talk!

abc, you stated it - now PROVE IT!!! NAME these so-called "jewish scholars"
Jews are NEVER ever allowed in Muslim mosques ... and what pray tell would they be "prey"ing on?
The Qur'an is very specific in its hatred of Jews and it is this hatred of Jews that dictates the legal regimes, foreign policies, military aspirations, cultural mores, educational themes and even public health policies in Muslim countries throughout the Middle East.
"Egyptian Clerics call the Jews 'Donkeys' and 'Apes and Pigs,' and Say: Making Our Children Loathe the Jews Is a Form of Worship of Allah," from MEMRI, March 6
Egyptian cleric Abd Al-Rahman Al-Sawi: "In the Qur'an, Allah called the Jews donkeys."
Egyptian cleric 'Alaa Said: The (Jews) are treacherous. Allah, who created them, told us so. We must be resolute and fill hearts with hatred and loathing. By Allah, the hatred and loathing of Jews is a form of worship. When we make our children loathe the Jews, it is a form of worship of Allah. These are people hated and loathed by Allah.
Abd Al-Rahman Al-Sawi: "I want our children to be raised on this notion. When I give a child a toy, I give him a gun, not a football. Enough with the football. I give him a gun and tell him: Shoot, but don't shoot your brother. Shoot the Jews."
Jews are NOT allowed in the Cave of the Patriarchs where Abrahan and his wife Sarah are buried, or the Tomb of Joseph, or the Temple Mount - all Jewish holy sites long before any Muslim showed up with a greedy gream in his eye!!!

Well who is considered to be the greatest Jewish scholars of them all? An expert jurist and pretty much the author of Jewish law.
The Jews call him ram bam affectionately, the Muslims address him as ibn meimon.
The rest of the world knows him as meimonedes.
"Maimonides (known commonly as the Rambam) in the 12th century. Maimonides, one of the key commentators and jurists throughout Jewish history, ruled firmly that the Islamic Faith should not be considered idolatry: "The Ishmaelites [Muslims] are not idol worshippers at all, and it [idolatry] has ceased to exist in their mouths and hearts and they attribute the proper Oneness to God with no blemish. And if someone will say that the house they worship in is an idolatrous shrine . . . as their ancestors worshiped idols there—that does not matter. Those who bow towards it today, their hearts are dedicated to heaven [towards the One God] . . . and the Ishmaelites today, all of them, women and children, have ceased to believe in idolatry and their mistake is . . . in other things . . . however in attributing Oneness to God—they have no mistake at all."
It was he who made the judgement!
Do you know of a higher authority on the old testament??

Well Abc's " Jewish Scholar " was living in a Muslim-Country and he had left "Spain" to save his life.
Quote:
Although his writings on Jewish law and ethics were met with acclaim and gratitude from most Jews even as far off as Spain, Iraq and Yemen, and he rose to be the revered head of the Jewish community in Egypt, there were also vociferous critics of some of his rulings and other writings particularly in Spain.
[....]
During the reign of Almoravids, the position of the Jews was apparently free of significant abuses,[11] but after another Berber dynasty Almohads conquered Córdoba in 1148, they threatened the Jewish community with the choice of conversion to Islam, death, or exile,[10] although the historical records of abuses against Jews in the immediate post-1148 period are subject to different interpretations.[12] Many Jews were also forced to convert or to wear identifying clothing.[13] Maimonides's family, along with most other Jews, chose exile. Some say, though, that it is probable Maimonides feigned a conversion to Islam before escaping,[11] his forced conversion was ruled legally invalid per Islamic law when brought up by a rival in Egypt.[12] For the next ten years Maimonides moved about in southern Spain, eventually settled in Fes in Morocco, where he studied at the University of Al-Karaouine. During this time, he composed his acclaimed commentary on the Mishnah in the years 1166–1168.[14]
Quote End from Wikipedia]
Of course Morocco was another ISLAMIC country (as well as Egypt were he did) and NO WONDER that he did not write something "critical" of Islam, having learned his lesson by now. Just like with his "feigned" conversion to Islam he also could PRETEND that Islam does not worship a IDOL in his writings, even if he knew better. Some really brave and courages Muslims could try in the mosque, instead of facing Mecca, face the North-pole and remain "standing"!
So looks to me at least in his life-time he had lots of critics, and one would really need a lot of time to work out all the points of conflict. The issue is not Jews and their tradition, it Islam, and how it is in many points just lousy job of copy what is there, and mix it with some stuff to claim to be a "improved"
And before some Muslims gets the wrong idea, I am NOT a Christian, having officially left the faith. But I know plenty about the faith.

But they are fast in destroying civilisation as in Egypt, Temples in India, Buddha Statue in Iran, Twin Towers in US, Peace in the World, etc. They will kill non believers, attack muslims of other sects.
This will go on as long as Islam exists.

2. Idolizing a person to the point of killing anyone who says anything even slightly derogatory about that person = idol worship
3. Declaring a book (or any other object) to be holy and demanding a death penalty for violation of the code protecting that object = idol worship
4. Circling the stone in special clothes in order to perfom a ritual touching/kissing of that stone = idol worship
Obeying Muhammad is obeying Allah...4:80
Pledging allegiance to Muhammad is pledging allegiance to Allah; hands of Allah are with the hands of those who show solidarity with Muhammad...48:10
Obeying Allah and the apostle (Muhammad) is the highest achievemen...33:71
Muhammad is the only person to be obeyed or followed (blindly); Allah does not love the disbelievers...3:32
The believers should obey Allah and Muhammad, lest Allah nullifies their works (obeying Muhammad is obeying Allah)...47:33
You must not hesitate to believe in Allah when Muhammad instructs you to do so...57:8
Obey Allah and his messenger (Muhammad); the duty of Muhammad is to proclaim the message of Allah clearly and openly... 64:12
Believers must obey Muhammad and trust him; angels do...81:21
In a hadith narrated by Ibn 'Umar which at-Tabarani has related, the Prophet (Muhammad) says: "Allah, the Mighty and Majestic sifted through His creation and chose the Banu Adam from them. Then He sifted through Banu Adam and chose the Arabs from them. Then He sifted through the Quraysh and chose the Banu Hashim from them. Then He sifted through the Banu Hashim and chose me from them. I AM THE BEST OF THE BEST. Whoever loves the Arabs, loves them through love for me. Whoever hates the Arabs, hates them through hatred of me."
Ibn 'Abbas said that the spirit of the Prophet was a light in the hands of Allah two thousand years before He created Adam. That light glorified Him and the angels glorified by his glorification. When Allah created Adam, He cast light into his loins.
The Messenger of Allah (Muhammad) said: "Allah brought me down to earth in the loins of Adam, placed me in the loins of Nuh and then cast me into the loins of Ibrahim. Allah continued to move me from noble loins and pure wombs until He brought me out of my parents. None of them were ever joined together in fornication."
So, Abc, here is my advice to you:
Leave the idolatrous Muslim faith.
Become an atheist, an agnostic, a Bhuddist, a Jew, a Zorastrian, a Taoist, or follower of Y'shua the Messiah. Than at least then you will not be associating with the Allah Ba'al Zebub and his demonic partner in crime, THE ONE, THE ONLY, drum roll please - Muhammad!

Allah decrees ahead of time every bad thing that happens to the earth or individuals (57:22).
look up decees buddy
There is not a living creature whose hair is not in the grasp of Allah (11:56).
not a living creature, that means you buddy
No one can have faith unless Allah gives him permission. Allah will severely punish those who do not have the sense to believe (10:100).

A fatwa issued in May of 2011 by a famous and respected Imam in Morocco states the following:
"Since a good Muslim couple will meet again in Heaven, and since death does not alter the marital contract, it is not a hindrance to the husband's desire to have sexual intercourse with the corpse of his (freshly) deceased wife." -Imam Abdelbari Zemzami
In Egypt, a bill has just been introduced by the new Islamist parliament legalizing "farewell intercourse", affording a man a six hour window after his wife's death for necrophilic sex.

1) Eat no food that has been offered to idols,
2) Eat no blood,
3) Eat no an animal that has been strangled, and
4) keep from sexual immorality. (Acts 15:28-29)
Halal meat fails on these three grounds:
1) The meat is given an idolatrous blessing;
2) The halal throat-slitting procedure usually causes death by strangulation as the animal drowns in its own blood because only the jugular and trachea are severed; and
3) The animal is not bled out properly leaving the meat full of blood clots.
AND
4) If the animal has been molested by some horny Muslim, then the meat fails on ALL FOUR COUNTS.
The Halal procedure is inhumane. The animal dies a slow painful terrified death; therefore this method is very unChristian and anti-G_d. Throughout Muslim lands, 100s of millions of animals are slaughtered each year in this manner. And now this is being done in the EU and the US. It is time for all good Christians to become vegetarians. Its no wonder the Hindu don't eat cows.
