Poland may have banned "ritual slaughter", but kosher and halal meat more than bear comparison with our own meat
production practices.
Do the Middle East's ancient indigenous Christians eat halal meat? If so, then there cannot be anything wrong with it in principle.

Israel,
meanwhile, is now so desperate that she is importing Russians who refuse
on principle to eat kosher meat.
Oh, well, at least they are
not Arabs, eh...?
To be fair, Israel cannot import Arabs since her substantial Arab minority already presents a substantial demographic threat to Israel's future as a Jewish state.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about Israel's treatment of the Palestinians, but I also understand why Jews might want some patch of land on Earth where Jewish culture predominates, considering their historical experiences as a minority in other people's countries.
I don't see what Jewish culture predominates when people are being flown in who refuse to eat kosher food. They also insist on taking their IDF oaths on the New Testament alone.
ReplyDeleteThey are being imported solely because they are ethnically Jewish-Israel also brings in large numbers of US Jews each decade.
ReplyDeleteThe aim (like the aim of their discriminatory treatment of Israeli Arabs which I deplore) is to counterbalance the perceived demographic threat to israel's existence posed by the rapidly-ballooning Arab minority.
It may not work-but I hope the world's Jews do always have somewhere they can call home.
Are they ethnically Jewish? I doubt it, and I am not the only one. All that matters to the Israelis is that they are not Arabs.
