Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Norway’s agriculture minister: “We cannot stop serving pork because Muslims have moved to Norway”

Jan 31, 2014 10:05 pm By Robert Spencer

Sylvi Listhaug is right: “Those responsible for food in public institutions should put pork on the menu, and then make sure that those who do not eat pork can get something else.” Again and again we see that wherever Islamic law and practice conflict with Western law and practice, it is the latter that gives way. This is in part because the West has a tradition of compromise and self-sacrifice, and Islam does not — so only one side is even willing to bend. But to give up one’s own identity to accommodate an authoritarian, supremacist culture that considers itself superior in every respect as a way of ordering society is, in the final analysis, nothing short of suicidal.

“‘Don’t stop serving pork for Muslims’: Minister,” from The Local, January 31 (thanks to Menis):

Norway’s agriculture minister has called on the country’s prisons, hospitals and nursery schools to serve more pork, claiming that the meat is being pulled off the menu to avoid offending the country’s Muslim minority.

“We cannot stop serving pork because Muslims have moved to Norway,” Sylvi Listhaug, a politician for the right-wing Progress Party, said this week.

“Those responsible for food in public institutions should put pork on the menu, and then make sure that those who do not eat pork can get something else,” she said.

Bjørn-Ole Juul-Hansen,  the managing director of the Norwegian meat industry association, told NRK that public institutions in the country were now serving pork less often, although he could provide no statistics to back up the claim.

“Our members feel that many public institutions, nurseries and municipal catering departments often opt out of pork in the interests of a small minority,” he said.

Willy Haugen, who controls the catering for Oslo’s prisons, admitted that pork is only on the menu on average once a fortnight.

“There are practical reasons why pork has been downgraded,” he told NRK.

      Where I live in the north of England it’s very hard to buy non-halal meat apart from in supermarkets, and even there I can only be sure I’m not eating muslim cruelty meat if I buy pork.

      Which makes ME want to fire up the grill and barbecue the Koran.

    Mister Spock, We have been on this planet three days and we have not spotted any signs of intelligent life are you certain your readings are correct.

    Yes, Captain Kirk.
    The ship’s sensors detect these life forms much more highly evolved than on Earth.
    It seems they have intercepted our communications Captain.
    They know that we have the Saudi Ambassador on board.

    Mister Spock are you trying to say that …
    Yes, Captain Kirk they are afraid that we are Islamists.
    THEY ARE CLEARLY AVOIDING US.
    — fascinating.

    McCoy go down there with pork chops and tell them Islam means peace

    In order to cleanse my aura from the influence of Quranic energy I like to meditate while sitting inside a circle of bacon rashers. My wife is vegan so she likes to use “Not Bacon”. Once inside the circle one can feel the negative Quranic energy dissipating, and one feels safe and secure from primitive tribal supremacism.

    The REAL scandal is the horrific animal abuse now being imported into thousands of slaughterhouses across Europe (i.e halal).

    In the UK, it is ******ILLEGAL***** for an indigenous Brit to kill an animal by any other means other than when the animal is stunned unconscious. If this is not adhered to then the person can rightly face justice.
    HOWEVER – this rule does not apply to MUSLIMS! The law makes special rules for their animal torture.

    • Alice111 says

      Feb 1, 2014 at 7:36 pm

      I suspect they kill the animals in such manner to hone their skills for the enemy.

    Death by a million cold-cuts !
    The jihad to make sharia compliancy mandatory in every nook and cranny of western culture includes making halal meats sacrosanct .
    This requires halal abattoirs for the islamic ritual slaughter/ sacrifice, an abattoir run by muslim men only and the slaughtered animal blessed by an imam in the name of allah.A lucrative islamic business that is growing exponentially in the west to satiate the appetites of devout muslims .
    Are you aware that islamic ritual animal slaughter forgoes for pious reasons the more caring western technique of stunning the animal , the sacrificial islamic slaughter requires the animal to be conscious while its throat is slashed, thus the animal thrashes in pain and alarm, bleeding to death . the most benevolent most merciful of ritual anuimal sacrifice !!!!

      According to a report by the Farm Animal Welfare Committee a calf can be in agony for up to two minutes when killed by the barbaric ‘halal’ method. Try holding your breath for two minutes – use a stopwatch – and you will begin to understand exactly how long this is.

      The recommended that the UK Government withdraw the dispensation given to Jewish and Muslim people to slaughter animals without stunning.

      The Government ignored them.

    Though observant and very religious jews will not eat any pork or otherwise non-kosher products, they have never, ever insisted that non-jews do the same, or are obligated to do the same ( they aren’t), and this is never understood or screamed out. For non- jews, there is no ‘foul’ for eating pork. Enjoy and be at peace.
    That message should be screamed out and understood for what it is and means.
    That it isn’t is why we allow the tyranny of Islam to digest all others and why we fail to stop the mad stupidlty of allowing their tyranny to go unchallenged.

    Norway’s small Jewish and Seventh-Day Adventist communities do not eat pork as well. But they send non-pork meals with their children to schools, not depending on the government. Let the Muslim community do the same. I am a vegetarian and always provide myself with veggie food. I don’t make a big deal about it. I don’t feel that the government should cater to my needs. Let the Muslims do the same!

    As soon as any halal meat option is introduced, the islamists will work towards an exclusion of all non-halal meat. They demand separate utensils, food preparation surfaces, refrigerators, and ovens. Most establishments don’t want the double expenditure and submit. Next up is a move to force out non-muslim kitchen staff.

    Those responsible for food in public institutions should put pork on the menu, and then make sure that those who do not eat pork can get something else.

    I for one am excited about this. No way should The Other White Meat be relegated cuz the Moslem don’t like the stuff, that it’s irreligious or whatever. Hypocrites, I’ve been running a BLT stand at the end of my driveway way out here in the country. My neighbor axed why, that anybody could make it at home in their kitchen and that my prices were high. But then a Moslima pulls up in a $40,000 minvan and purchases ten to go. The neighbor then set up his own BLT stand, competition and all that, but unfortunately his stand somehow caught fire in the night so we’re back to the discreet BLT game.

        The telling thing is that she even had to mention the issue at all, and she did have to, and at considerable political and personal risk. The Scandinavians represent the worst form of modern body politic.

        Deep in the minds of every Dhimmi is the knowledge that they should fear Moslems, and act accordingly. This is why the Moslems have been on a stunning run for the last decades, success after success. They incrementally co-opt their host Infidel nation’s society and culture, step-by-step.

        Meanwhile, here I am peddling BLT sandwiches to Moslems wrapped in plain brown paper bags.

      I had a Muslim student who tried to eat pork when he could get away with it. Said he loved it, and it was OK to eat it if he didn’t know the difference.

    Cannibalism is prohibited in Islam.
    Muhammad raped the wives after murdering their husbands.
    Muhammad had sex with a 9 year old baby girl.
    Muslims are forbidden to eat pork.
    It might be a descendant of their prophet.

    Cannibalism is prohibited in Islam.

      Here is part of a comment made by a certain “Jameela” a few years ago:

      “Muslims obey Allah and will not eat a “cursed” jew {swine}, as we know the flesh of the swine is permeated with parasitic jew worms that control the minds of the jew’s christian slaves. Also, the pig has human qualities, as pig skin is used in pig-to-human skin graft transplants for burn victims. Allah identifies the jew’s to be the JINN in the following Verses of the Qur’an and He identifies the christian’s partially-eaten, jew corpse god to be a JINN slave Messenger, sent to the Children of Israel and NOT the Children of Adam {non-jews}.”

      I don’t know how many Muslims think like this, but I have heard from a seemingly ordinary Muslim woman that pigs are “actually” people and I got the idea that she meant pigs were actually transformed Jews. So I suspect there is more to the general Muslim claim that they don’t eat pigs simply because they are “unclean”.

    So the Norwegians will try to not outlaw pork in compliance w/islamic law, but will outlaw all criticism of islam, if they haven’t already done so.

    There’s a Slovakian checkout girl at the Aldi supermarket a few miles down the road.

    She works as hard as any on the males and as Aldi staff multi task, even the managers, she’s often hauling a pallet trolley, sorting the appalling dishevelment customers leave, shelf stacking, turns up on her bike in thick and thin of all weathers, is chatty and friendly and an all round asset to my country.

    The area a couple of miles further south has its contingent of clustering muslims and her disdain although forcedly polite is palpable.

    She once mentioned the untidy, ill mannered and pushy rabble who travel to infest the store with a slight wink of the eye and I knew exactly what she meant.

    One day I watched as a Pakistani couple emptied the place of its special offer oranges, leaving not one for other customers and her smile said it all.

    I asked rhetorically, why do they need so many and she replied, the ten kids they claim child credit on at home.

    Following on she spotted my salami filled pizza’s, grinned and noted, at least they won’t be depriving you of those.

    Most lamb is now halal here and unless free range, which the Pakistanis won’t stump up for, so is the chicken.

    So that did it. No more lamb and no more battery chicken with all the varieties of pork produce taking it’s place.

    It’s actually saved money as Aldi is a German firm and their traditionally pork derived produce is both cheaper and quite delicious.

    If I get the rare takeaway it’s either our fish and chips from an English chip shop or I look for the Arabic squiggle on the window denoting halal. If there, I walk by.

    Horrifically most have that mark of animal cruelty so no more KFC or Macdonalds who seem to have gone along with this enforcement of Islamic food standard on an unsuspecting public.

    In a way its been a good turn. KFC is usually stale fat soaked horridness and Macdonalds are nowhere near as good as they used to be.

    My anger at this imposition and more to the point, my fellow Brit’s acceptance is now gone.

    I’ve signed petitions and asked stores why, all to no avail.

    My protest now is avoidance but you can bet that if a significant number followed suit this abomination would end.

    Norway’s agriculture minister: “We cannot stop serving pork because Muslims have moved to Norway”
    …………………………………

    Sure you could—just a bit more dhimmitude…

    As noted, it is not Jews or Seventh Day Adventists of vegetarians who are pushing for a ban on pork.

    Just remember the recent story from Malaysia, where pious Muslims are trying to get the sale or serving of pork banned altogether.

    They want to impose that on the West, as well.

    More:

    Norway’s agriculture minister has called on the country’s prisons, hospitals and nursery schools to serve more pork, claiming that the meat is being pulled off the menu to avoid offending the country’s Muslim minority.
    …………………………………

    Why should the mere presence of pork “offend” Muslims? Because they want to impose Shari’ah norms on *everyone*, Muslim *and Infidel.

    More:

    “We cannot stop serving pork because Muslims have moved to Norway,” Sylvi Listhaug, a politician for the right-wing Progress Party, said this week.
    …………………………………

    I hope other Norwegians agree—but given the degree of dhimmitude in Scandinavia, I won’t count on it…

    More:

    Willy Haugen, who controls the catering for Oslo’s prisons, admitted that pork is only on the menu on average once a fortnight.

    “There are practical reasons why pork has been downgraded,” he told NRK.
    …………………………………

    And that is because Norway’s prisons—like those everywhere—are full of violent Muslims…

    I will eat, worship, dress, speak and basically live the way I want. No one will dictate my life. I don’t care who’s offended. If they don’t like it go somewhere else. Just leave me and my family alone. May sound harsh but I am pissed about how one group tries to change others from their own cultures.
