They are extremely petty, use gang type, goon squad tactics, then shriek about being victimized.

Look for the halal union label.

Seriously, any religion that doesn’t allow bacon + chocolate is NOT one I would join :-/

Bacon... and chocolate... OM NOM NOM

My daughter lives in Coogee, a section of Sydney about five miles from the Lindt Café. She wrote me last night to say that that particular place was chosen because all of the major news networks are located on the same block, making it the perfect location for such an event if you wanted a lot of publicity. It would be sort of like taking hostages in some store across the street from the Rockefeller Center in NYC.

In kosher you bleed animals by beheading them. In halal you bleed infidels by beheading them.

That's not a bad idea! I invite you to start a "Buycott" on FR to show our support for Lindt the same way we supported Chick-Fil-A a year or so ago!

2 What is the main difference between Halal and Kosher?

8 One is a ritual sacrifice to glorify a false god and the other is more about what is permitted to eat, and a blessing for the consumer.

11 There is a host of differences. ... There are some similarities: ...

14 I know kosher meat, aside from being Scripturally clean, the animal is killed in a way that minimizes its suffering.

19 And halal killing maximizes it. Spiritually and biologically, halal is designed to put terror into meat.

My limited information focuses on the killing of the animal. Kosher butchers are required to use extremely sharp knives to minimize the suffering. Don't know if the cut goes through the trachea first or if it targets the carotid arteries along both sides of the neck. Severing the carotid arteries renders the animal unconscious in a matter of seconds, e.g. < 5, due to loss of blood pressure to the brain.

It is interesting to think back to ~70 A.D. and the Hebrew zealots holding out against the Romans at Masada. The 10(?) Hebrew warriors drew lots to slay their countrymen instead of falling into the hands of the Romans. The thinking is that they severed the carotid arteries on the necks of their compatriots/friends/family members.

Don't know about the conditions of the Kosher butcher's slaughterhouse. I do know that in American slaughterhouses, the livestock can smell the fresh blood, and that creates anxiety in the animals. American slaughterhouses use stun guns to the head (cattle) and carbon monoxide (swine) to render the animals unconscious before killing the animal. Poultry are electrically shocked unconscious before cutting their necks.

Hopefully some Freeper can provide details of the Halal butcher. I am under the impression that minimizing pain/stress in the animal is not a concern.

At Publix today I bought a container of Lindt DARK Chocolate Truffles as a Christmas stocking stuffer gift for someone.

After I brought them home and after two seconds of intense meditation, I decided I'd rather eat them myself...they are SO luscious and melt-in-your mouth.

If you decide to support the Lindt company with packages of these particular candies, you won't be sorry, believe me.

Intel has been worried for quite awhile about security since a sizable amount of its design work since 2000 has been done in Israel.
My personal opinion was this is why Abu Dabi bought Global Foundries, AMD’s old fab.

Actually Lindt has chocolate that is kosher - no bacon of course, but it is kosher:

So the Jews are cool with Lindt.
