Muslims around the world are celebrating Eid al-Adha, the feast of sacrifice, the second of two Islamic holidays celebrated worldwide marking the end of the annual pilgrimage or Hajj to the Saudi holy city of Mecca.

Across the world men, women and children prayed and sacrificed animals as part of the celebrations.

Eid al-Adha is the holiest of the two Muslims holidays celebrated each year. Photos from Pakistan show men in the street slaughtering goats, camels, cows and sheep as of the festivities.

As many as 10 million animals worth up to $3 billion are sacrificed during the festival, the Pakistan Tanners' Association says.

And the animal rights wackos? what do they have to say about this?

Same thing the feminists say about Islam's abuse of women, genital mutilation, and honor killings.

"We can't impose our values on their culture" or some such BS.

They're afraid to criticize those who fight back.

Did you see the photos of the animals being sacrificed? Did you see the abject TERROR in their eyes? The very uncomfortable way they were wrenched around and toppled to the pavement by tripping? Did you see the evil smiles on the faces of the butchers? It was as though they enjoyed the animals’ suffering. If there was a button I could have pushed to annihilate every one of those filthy creeps, I believe I could have pushed it. This was barbaric, just a total bloodbath, not humane slaughter at all.

I cringe when I see muzzlimes dressed in full regalia at my local kosher market. I could very well do without seeing them at all, let alone where I buy my food.

”My brothers and sisters. Today is a day for fighting back. If you see a human with a white turban and beard coming at you with a knife, there is a place you can bite him so that, as they say, will slow his appreciation of his promised virgins”

They really are smarter than the infidels. They have mastered time travel:

They have transported whole sections of the world back to the Seventh Century.
