The cruelty and torture of "halal" slaughter in Gaza

The method whereby the cows were taken out of the van trunks was as follows: beatings with whips and sticks to force the cows to exit through the opening and pulling the cows with a rope tied around their necks from within the van. The van did not have a ramp so the cattle were in effect dropped from the height of about one meter hitting the ground, at times landing on knees or stomachs.

In the main Gaza slaughterhouse the cows was entered into a metal box from which only their head could be seen. Employees then turned the metal box upside-down bringing the cows' heads to a convenient position, with their legs turned upwards and their heads turned downwards. Sometimes this stage lasted twenty six seconds, during which the bull would shake its head violently while suffering in this unnatural position. The slaughter itself took part in several stages. During the first stage, lasting some two seconds, the slaughterer cut the main veins in the cow’s throat several times with his knife causing a deep slash. For a further eleven seconds, until the end of the clip, he repeated cutting the animal's throat twice more.

In other slaughterhouses in the Gaza Strip where there are no such metal boxes, and the slaughter is conducted in two main methods: a stab to numb and weaken the bull prior to completing the slaughter, and 'sawing' the bull's throat at length.

Satan needs sacrificial cats! Huntingdon, Que. Mayor Stephane Gendron says he deliberately runs over cats, SPCA investigates

Huntingdon mayor Gendron's car, with which he claimed
to run over cats, is adorned with Satanic symbols

Stephane Gendron, the mayor of Huntingdon Quebec, says he was joking when he claimed that he deliberately runs over cats with his car.

An aficionado of Satan who has the number 666 on his vanity license plate, Gendron may indeed have been joking.

But on the other hand, for someone who demonstrates a fondness for Satan, and who deplores Christianity and Israel, sacrificing innocent domestic animals to Beelzebub wouldn't entirely be a shock, would it?

The Dog Blood Libel

A bunch of reports are circulating about a dog that wandered into a Jewish religious court in Jerusalem being sentenced to death by stoning because it was supposedly the reincarnation of a deceased, cursed lawyer.

The BBC publicised the story ending it with their own fatuous comment that "Dogs are often considered impure animals in traditional Judaism." Evidently the genius experts at the Beeb don't understand the difference between Judaism, that doesn't take a detrimental view of canines and Islam, which does.

The story, as it turns out, was completely false. Jewish law explicitly forbids cruelty to animals and the rabbi who was accused by the media issued a statement saying there was no excuse for abusing animals according to Jewish religious law or otherwise. He added that workers from a local animal shelter had come to collect the dog from his courtroom that day.

But we probably won't hear the real story from the BBC.

UPDATE: Oh, look..the Beeb did eventually correct it, but not with nearly as much fanfare as they presented the lie. (Thanks to reader Ramona for the update!)
