Sweden: Angry parents manage to stop halal in school

Nov 19, 2014 9:48 am By Nicolai Sennels

Al-Alali_Halal_Islamic_Chicken_Stock_CubesThis is an example for all parents to follow: Via 10news.dk

In Sigtuna, halal slaughtered chicken has been served at local schools for some years now — without informing the families. Since this came to the attention of the parents, protests from parents steadily escalated, and now the municipality has decided to remove halal meat from the schools’ menu. …

The chicken comes mostly from Denmark and is slaughtered according to the Swedish animal rights rules …

“In the beginning, the complaints concerned lack of animal welfare. But then the municipality informed people that all the animal welfare rules had been followed. This was also accepted by those who complained, but then the complaints started focusing on the religious aspects,” says Henrik Josephson at the municipality’s communications department.

An anonymous mom says it’s wrong to force her son to eat food that the family does not eat for ethical reasons, and emphasizes that her children should have as much right to eat non-halal as those who wish to do so.

What about spiking record crime rates, murders, thefts, hate crimes from the Islamic supremacist colonizers overrunning your country?

    I guess those things don’t matter enough, but the cruelty to chickens does matter enough to get it stopped? Really, Sweden?

      Every fightback / pushback by the resident non-Muslims of every non-Muslim country has to start *somewhere*.

      And in each country the “trigger” will be different.

      Because countries are different. You shouldn’t complain or poke fun at your fellow non-Muslims in another country because they begin their fight over something that *you* think is trivial. Just be pleased that they’re fighting back, and encourage them!

      These Swedish parents – and I’ll bet it was dads, uncles, aunts, grandmas and grandpas as well as mums – got annoyed about something to do with Islam; they decided they didn’t want it; they got together; they kicked up a stink, and…they *won*.

      **Now they know how to do it**. Now they know that they *can* win.

      What they need now is encouragement, to identify *other* places where they can push back against Islamisation. Let *them* pick their battles, now they know how to do it. And when they do…when they pick their *next* target, start their next campaign…encourage them.

      • Salah says

        Nov 19, 2014 at 11:47 pm

        As an Egyptian myself I will proudly add:
        These Egyptian parents … got annoyed about something to do with Islam (the Muslim Brotherhood rule); they decided they didn’t want it; they got together; they kicked up a stink, and…they *won*.

        Make no mistake, rejecting the Muslim Brotherhood rule is a subtle rejection of Islam itself. It will take more time, but the open rejection of Islam is slowly but surely coming!

          Salah, thank you for your post. It was the reaction of the courageous Egyptian people to the Muslim Brotherhood and his US backers (Obama, Clinton, Ambassador Patterson) that gives me hope.

          I hope one day the Egyptian people can throw off Sharia for good, and Islam, and live in Liberty. Then Egypt will prosper and live in peace.

    • amnexis says

      Nov 19, 2014 at 11:54 am

      I’m from Sweden, I demand deportation already, and have been doing so for a couple of years to be exact.

      People are waking up now; welcomed news yesterday was that UAE listed a bunch of swedish pro-islamic organisations as terrorist and parts of the Muslim Brotherhood. The debate is starting to catch on now.

      We also have lots of other immigrants, arab christians and kurds and so on.. they have been physically attacking IS-supporters here aswell, so now we have the middle east-conflict imported and we all can view it up-close and cosy…

      Sweden is going to need help in a near future.

    Good luck with that complaint about sneaking halal food into Swedish school lunches. The Muzzies will riot and burn cars over that removal, too. You see, it’s “racism,” even though slaughtered chickens don’t have a “race.” Or an ideology. Or face Mecca five times a day. Try explaining that to a Muslim, and you’ll risk having your head lopped off.

    • Jay Boo says

      Nov 19, 2014 at 11:35 am

      Are these schools funding Islamic owned and operated businesses or all these halal vendors non-Muslim.

      If they are Muslim owned shops then we must ask ourselves “do we really want to buy our chicken from Muslim men who marry their own cousins and have child brides”?
      Who knows where those chickens have been.

    What is it about Islam that gets everyone talking about rights.

    All of a sudden the state has a religious opinion – and is stepping in to tell you what and what not to believe about it. And even feels it should select food for everyone to eat that is in compliance with this religious belief.

    This is a precipice that the Muslim world has already stepped over – and what a disaster that is – in fact – it has led to its citizens pouring out into the non-sharia complaint lands.

    And Muslims don’t call the Islamic world the ‘Conquered Lands’ [Dar al-Islam] for nothing. This Islamic rule was imposed on them – and wherever they go – feel it is their solemn duty to impose it on others.

    So that everywhere Muslims amass – the other people find they are saying – “I feel – I have the right – not to want that!!”

  14. Dr. Reno says

    Nov 19, 2014 at 3:26 pm

    The fundamental issue is NOT what food, what school or even what Sweden because that is N-O-T how Islam works. The Koran is very specific and absolutistic, i.e., “convert or die,” there is no third choice.
    Further, violence (of any kind) is permitted in the name of Allah, even the murdered who kills a baby or a family because the victims are not Muslim will STILL get his 72 virgins, absolutely.
    These issues with non-Muslim against Muslim are very old and have always been life or death and it’s good news that we in the West are finally discovering their intentions are not about peace or love… you cannot become a one-religion (Islamic) world by being nice to people and I say, good going Sigtuna, a small start but a good one.

  15. Kepha says

    Nov 19, 2014 at 6:20 pm

    Sorry, folks, but Uncle Kepha strongly suspects there’s the usual European moral inversion in this, with people straining at gnats and swallowing camels.

    When it comes to Islam, too many people are sooooooo hush-hush about the fact that it is Muslims who pummel and rape their daughters, nieces, whoever and import a poisonous, hate-filled ideology to their streets; but it’s let’s be oh-so-high-and-mightily ethical about the way a chicken is slaughtered. Or, never mind that destroying a human child in the womb is either a young woman’s expected rite of passage, “hygiene”, or something like changing one’s underwear; but pour out those rivers of lamentation because a chicken has its throat cut and is drained of blood while someone intones a prayer!

    As a Christian, I do not see any religious significance in the way an animal is slaughtered, and see such rituals as ways to keep Israel distinct until the coming of the Messiah. As for Islam, I believe it a blasphemous, utterly misleading religion. But I utterly refuse to throw verbal rocks at people who still have scruples about what they eat and how they slaughter it if that’s the chief issue at hand.

    Swedes, if a gang of yoots pummels and rapes your womenfolk and your authorities won’t do anything, Uncle Kepha will be very understanding should you beat those yoots black and blue with axe handles; force those yoots’ imam to swallow a lump of pork fat; or some Sunday you throw rotten cabbages at your Islam-enabling clergy and clergyettes (who would make Martin Luther and Olaus Petri roll over in their graves); or even if you chop a hole in the ice of Stockholm harbor and throw in one of your more obnoxious leftist politicians. But if it’s only some halal butcher winning a contract with an institution, I could care less.

    • dumbledoresarmy says

      Nov 21, 2014 at 1:17 am

      You should read what Barnabas Fund has had to say about how halal is being used as an instrument of Islamoforming of societies.

      For one thing, where halal meat becomes the unlabelled norm, Muslims – it has happened in Uganda, and in Tanzania – end up with a *monopoly* of the entire non-pork meat trade, virtually from field to table.

      Are you okay with that?

      Did you read the part Mr Spencer bolded: “her children should have as much right to eat non-halal as those who wish to do so”.

      THAT’S the point.

      Why should I or anyone else have to eat halal whether I want to or not (irrespective of the reasons why I might not want to eat it; I might for example be less worried about the slaughtering method, than about the Muslims removing jobs from Infidel meatworkers, or I might be – very realistically – worried about where the money paid for that “halal certification” is going…like, to dawa and/ or jihad).

      And whatever happened to consumer choice?

      If halal becomes the unlabelled norm, non-Muslims end up having to eat it whether they want to or not. And Muslims *know* that; they *know* they are compelling us to conform to the sharia of Islam. And that feeds their triumphalism.

      Why should halal be big-noted? why should halal get in everywhere, like cockroaches?

      By contrast Jews living in diaspora – in the USA, Canada, UK, Australia – have been here for centuries and in all that time have *never* demanded that *everything* in the shops be officially certified kosher. They have instead quietly created their own little kosher department and separate supply chain, so to speak, and those who want to keep kosher have been able to do so, without demanding that everybody else in the nation also conform.

      In *Israel* of course most things are kosher – because that’s the Jewish state, where their culture is the dominant culture. But outside, they wouldn’t dream of demanding it… but Muslims *do*.

      If in any non-Muslim country Muslims – a numerical minority – succeed in arranging things so that halal – not only meat but a whole slew of other mainstream foodstuffs and other goods – is the unlabelled norm, with all the suppliers paying a fat fee *every single year* to be “certified halal”, then what has happened is that the minority is compelling everybody else to do things *their* way. And that is *not fair*.

      Further: Islam is a total system. Every bit of it is connected to every other bit.
      There’s no such thing as just a little bit of sharia. This halal food certification racket is just like the sharia finance racket and the public “prayer rooms” racket and the proliferation not just of behijabbed but of face-masked women. It’s about Islamoforming the host societies, seemingly -inconsequential bit by bit. Read Malcolm Gladwell, “Tipping Point”, the chapter about the Power of Context.

      These Swedish mums deciding they *don’t* want halal, is actually incredibly important. If they can make their point and stand their ground, it is a pushback against Islamisation. Just as the French burqa ban – IF IT IS ENFORCED – is of critical importance. It all matters. It doesn’t matter, in a way, *which* bit of Islam is resisted, because in the end, every bit of Islam is attached to every other bit; and because Islam *uses* context to project power. Deny Islam its ability to Islamoform – whether through halal or the face veil or the minaret (as the Swiss have done) – and you have begun to resist.

      • Kepha says

        Nov 21, 2014 at 6:03 am

        According to the man who taught me Chinese, in his part of the Loess Plateau of northern China, the non-pork meat trade was also largely in Muslim hands back between the two world wars–even though Muslims were in a clear minority. In my own travels in parts of the Golden Triangle, where Chinese halal was common, and in certain quarters of Taipei, Kaohsiung, and Taichung in Taiwan, eating halal beef noodle soup did not make a Muslim out of me. By the same token, I did not become a Rabbinical Jew from eating in kosher delis in my own country.

        As I said, I sense in this protest the same kind of post-modern moral inversion that has damaged the Western world far more than Fatso Ding’s Noodle Shop or Hussein’s Kebabs ever could. Indeed, the chief reason why Islam is a threat at this point is because too many Westerners are more concerned about how a chicken is slaughtered than about their own future.

    Bravo – Good on ya ! Put a stop to this nonsense before they go any further. In Malaysia these extremists have even forced water bottlers to put a halal certificate on EVERY bottle of mineral water. Administration funding is thereby required to QC-test the plain water for <500 ppm of canine or porcine DNa. The food factories thus certified will be forced to employ religious testers (ensuring them a comfortable living) or the factories themselves must be muslim-owned preferably.

    For too long Europeans have been stupid enough to allow them to dictate their religious terms to the majority of Christians. Just take a trip to Malaysia and stay there for a while to witness the degree of Islamic regulation in every aspect of food-processing and marketing.

    All this in a country that inherited a Westminster type of administration

    The inhumane and cruel method to kill animals in ritualised form is inimical to the traditions of Europe. The good and decent tradition, of not inflicting prolonged pain on animals, is one of the main features of a decent civilised society. Why? Because we show compassion not just those who can speak, but to the defenceless and the speechless.

    This butchery has now gargantuan in scale. We are now being fed Halal slaughtered meat against our knowledge.Our once civilised society has reverted to ritual animal sacrifice, and is quite literally swimming in an ocean of blood, as animals are slowly bled to death.

    How did this happen? How did we allow it? Why is the RSPCA, an organisation that is up in arms over a few badgers, is silent while halal slaughter is all around them?

    History will judge us, and we will be found wanting, for we once were civilised, and knew good from evil.

  21. GeoffM says

    Nov 22, 2014 at 6:25 am

    At last.

    The same happens in the UK. Muslims demand Halal and the authorities give it to everyone, mostly on the quiet.

    If muslims have the right to halal then non-muslims have an equal right to non-halal food.

    If i had kids in school I would demand it and any refusal would be a breach of human rights and equal treatment laws.

    Do not eat halal, do not buy halal and do not trade with any muslim business’s.
