"The next thing could be that Danish nurses are forced to go under cover as Muslim women in order to please Muslim patients." Martin Henriksen, Spokesman, Danish People's Party [DF]
One of the largest hospitals in Denmark has admitted to serving only halal beef -- meat that is slaughtered in accordance with strict Islamic guidelines -- to all of its patients regardless of whether or not they are Muslim.
The revelation that Danes are being forced to eat Islamically slaughtered meat at public institutions has triggered a spirited nationwide debate about how far Denmark should go to accommodate the estimated 250,000 Muslim immigrants now living in the country.
The halal food row erupted in July when the Danish tabloid Ekstra Bladet reported that Hvidovre Hospital near Copenhagen has been secretly serving only halal-slaughtered meat for the sake of its Muslim patients, for the past ten years. The hospital serves more than 40,000 patients annually, many (if not most) of whom presumably are non-Muslim.
Halal -- which in Arabic means lawful or legal -- is a term designating any object or action that is permissible according to Islamic Sharia law. In the context of food, halal meat is derived from animals slaughtered by hand according to methods stipulated in Islamic religious texts.
One such halal method, called dhabihah, consists of making a swift, deep incision with a sharp knife on the neck that cuts the jugular vein, leaving the animal to bleed to death. Much of the controversy involving halal stems from the fact that Sharia law bans the practice of stunning the animals before they are slaughtered. Pre-slaughter stunning renders the animals unconscious and is said to lessen their pain.

Halal: Meat must be killed in as painful a manner as possible or it’s unclean. Swell bunch of savages, Muzzies are.
Maybe liberal weenies might actually start caring about their Dhimmification.
Don’t discount the effort that goes into having to murder their non-Muslim minorities.
Why are you raging at me and repeatedly and falsely accusing me of saying Halal and Kosher are the same thing?
Lay off the rage, and nonsense.
Wait. What?
First of all, are saying that Jews are satanic? And secondly what is this kosher surcharge paid for with public funds of which you speak?
Kosher tax (antisemitic canard)
Is it a slow day over at Stormfront or did you get bored re-reading your copy of Mein Kampf?

I blame Denmark for cowardice
First I am not raging
Second this is not nonsense
Third you need to learn how the muslim brotherhood gets their money for jihad and why halal is so dangerous

Thanks for the info.
Rage at someone else unless there is something specific in my posts that you disagree with, but don’t make up nonsense that isn’t in them.
Yeah, post 80 had some good info.
Public funds do not pay for kosher certification. Kosher is not satanic Many companies will pay for kosher certification for other reason than just making their foods accommodating to Jews. It has become common practice for many companies to put casein (a milk protein) in many products that you would never think would contain milk. There are people who have serious food allergies to milk and really heavily on these certifications when choosing products to avoid getting ill. (serious milk allergies can even cause severe respiratory problems ) Having a kosher label helps sell product to people like this and it is just another reason why many companies will pay to have them done.
It's just not about avoiding milk as some also use this to avoid meat products (again lots of companies put meat products into things you would never think would contain them - if you are vegan you avoid these products and looking for kosher makes it easy to avoid)
Kosher and Halal are NOT the same. Halal should be avoided at all cost as it supplies money for more jihad .

Funny, **I** was under the impression that Judiasm worshipped the same God Christianity does. Whereas Islam is a developed variant of a tribal moon-god somehow wedged into the Abtahamic religions tree. . .
Euro-weiny dhimmitude
For the 7,692nd time.
You can’t have BOTH open borders and a generous welfare society.
Pick one American progressives/liberals/statists and Danes.
It’s really not very complicated.
The jihadists ought to have meatballs stuffed down their throats.
Far better to ban Muslims and keep your Danish or Swedish meatballs as the case may be
I don’t think that particular scripture supports your assertion. The context is to not lead One’s brother into sin by either being too observant or not enough.
Muslims often buy kosher.
