Colorado: Muslim workers fired after walking off job over prayer dispute, Hamas-linked CAIR steps in

Jan 1, 2016 3:05 pm By Robert Spencer

“There has been a desire among some employees to go in larger groups of people to pray. We just can’t accommodate that. It backs up the flow of all the production. We’re a federally inspected, USDA inspected plant. We have to ensure food safety. We have to ensure the products we produce meet consumer expectations.” No, you don’t, as you’ll soon learn: you have to make sure Muslims are accommodated. Everything else takes a back seat to that.

In reality, Muslims can make up missed prayers at later times, which makes it clear (as does the involvement of Hamas-linked CAIR) that this is simply an Islamic supremacist endeavor to secure special privileges for Muslims, such as we have seen on many other occasions. The objective is to reinforce the principle that wherever Islamic law and practice conflict with American law and practice, it is the latter that must give way.

“Cargill: Tried to resolve issues before firing Colorado Muslim workers,” by Emilie Rusch and Jesse Paul, Denver Post, December 31, 2015 (thanks to David):

Cargill Meat Solutions said Thursday it tried to resolve a workplace prayer dispute with Somali workers at its Fort Morgan meatpacking plant that led to the firing of about 190 employees.

The workers who lost their jobs were mostly immigrants from Somalia, and their termination came after they failed to report to work for three consecutive days last week to protest what they say were changes in times allowed for Muslim prayer.

Cargill says, however, it makes every “reasonable attempt” to provide religious accommodation for all of its employees at the Fort Morgan plant without interrupting operations.

“At no time did Cargill prevent people from prayer at Fort Morgan,” said Michael Martin, a spokesman for the Wichita-based company, which is part of the agribusiness giant Cargill Inc. ” Nor have we changed policies related to religious accommodation and attendance. This has been mischaracterized.”

Cargill also said while reasonable efforts are made to accommodate employees, accommodation is not guaranteed every day and depends on changing factors in the plant.

“This has been clearly communicated to all employees,” Martin said.

But the [Hamas-linked — Ed.] Council on American-Islamic Relations, which is representing more than 100 of the fired employees, said Thursday that messaging from plant supervisors has not always been so clear.

On Dec. 18, the Friday before employee protests began Dec. 21, “the workers were told: ‘If you want to pray, go home,’ ” CAIR spokesman Jaylani Hussein said.

“To these employees, that is what it is. Maybe Cargill never changed its policy, but to these employees, they feel whatever the policy is, or how it is implemented, there was a change put in place,” Hussein said.

Cargill provides a “reflection room” at the plant where observant Muslim workers are allowed to pray, something that has been available since 2009.

Hussein said depending on the season, the workers pray at different times of the day, typically taking five to 10 minutes away from their work. The time was carved out of a 15-minute break period or from the workers’ unpaid 30-minute lunch breaks.

Many of the workers banded together and decided to walk off the job in an attempt to sway plant managers to reinstate the prayer policy.

“They feel missing their prayer is worse than losing their job,” Hussein said. “It’s like losing a blessing from God.”

On Dec. 23, Cargill fired the holdouts who had not returned to work, citing a company policy that employees who do not show up for work or call in for three consecutive days will be let go.

“It’s an unfortunate situation that may be based somewhere in a misunderstanding,” Martin said. “But the policies have been in place, and we go over the policies for all people who are newly hired to the company when they are hired.”

All of the terminated employees worked the second shift on the plant’s fabrication floor, where chilled beef carcasses are broken down into smaller cuts and packaged, Martin said.

Of those involved, “fewer than 20” employees walked out in the middle of a shift, he said. About 160 failed to report to work, and 10 resigned.

Before the walkout, Cargill employed roughly 600 Somali workers at the Fort Morgan plant. More than 400 still work there, Martin said, and accommodations are still being made to allow Muslims to leave the floor in small groups to pray.

“There has been a desire among some employees to go in larger groups of people to pray. We just can’t accommodate that,” Martin said. “It backs up the flow of all the production. We’re a federally inspected, USDA inspected plant. We have to ensure food safety. We have to ensure the products we produce meet consumer expectations.”…

    Question: What describes an innocent, peaceful muslim? Answer: one who is not trying to kill or convert you. Those are usually dead ones. The rest are actually waiting their turn. Quran, 8:12,”I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.” Surely, this cannot be a formula for an individuals spiritual struggle, can it? I guess Donald Trump is right and the others aren’t!

    It is pure propaganda to continually tell Americans that Islam is a religion of peace. Islam is only peaceful when it is not on the attack to subjugate us infidels. To even defend ones self from that attack places Americans in the position of being accused of racism Islamophobia and hate. These hateful words are screamed by the left-leaning press about anyone who objects to ‘em.

    Ted Cruz recently fell for this line of propaganda by trying to differentiate Islamic Jihadists from Innocent, peaceful muslims. He’s wrong, of course! It can’t be done, but, he is running for high office and can’t be seen as not standing squarely for all citizens. That’s sad. Ted should really stand up for Americas Constitution and the rule of law as it applies to all Americans. To those who do not wish to comply and assimilate, he should invite them to leave America and return to their squalid, violent Islamic homelands. They have no business being here. Fat chance of that!

    Quran, 9:14, “Fight against them so that Allah will punish them by your hands and disgrace them and give you victory over them and heal the breasts of a believing people.” To injure and humiliate Infidels (non-believers) has the blessing of Allah but, it is ‘ordered’ as a means of punishing non-believers and healing the hearts of Muslims as well.

    How should non-believers (Christians and Jews) react to these violent teachings from the “religion of peace?” First, Christians and Jews must not be afraid to stand up for, and defend, the Bible and the Torah, and themselves. Second, clergy must seriously enact the biblical command to go forth and preach the Gospel. A few protestant denominations do this with vigor but many others, recognizing the change from Christianity to secularism, and afraid to contain it, must return to Christianity by example. Protecting sexual predators, hopefully now weeded out of the Catholic Priesthood, didn’t help them, and neither did the several evangelical TV preachers caught in adulterous positions by which their authority, and livelihood, was lost.

    Quran, 9:33, taken from the final chapter of the Revelations of Allah, tells muslims that Allah has made Islam superior to all religions and in fact, sets in motion the need for Jihad, the expansion by military means to dominate all people and all other faiths of the whole world.

    Europe is nearing the completion of its Islamization. Except for the odd spasms of Islamic violence, predicated upon alleged insults to the Prophet and Islam, the transformation is going according to plan. Not by military invasion as of yore, but by assimilation and over production in host countries, like cancer cells invading its host body. For Europe, the process has been slow, deliberate and methodical. For America, it is being hurried along by Obamas invitation to Syrian Jihadists to throw their roots down here, in our soil, to prosper and multiply.

    Quran, 25:52: Therefore listen not to the unbelievers, but strive against them with the utmost strenuousness.” To “strive against” means Jihad. Islam means submission. Our politicians and preachers had better do some soul searching and do what’s right. There can never be a “peaceful, innocent muslim.” It just ain’t gonna happen!

      Hello George — Thank you for the long comprehensive dose of reality about Islam. You mention two verses in Taubah (Chapter Nine) of the Qur’an.

      Here is a link at Citizenwarrior’s superb collection of information about Muhammad’s violent mind — which he cleverly disguised as words of God: http://www.citizenwarrior.com/2010/09/qurans-last-word-on-non-muslims.html

      That post centers on Taubah being the 2nd to last chronologicallyand thus abrogating earlier Suras which had peaceful intent for non-believers.

      Also highly recommended by me is “The terrifying brilliance of Islam”, which acknowledges Muhammad’s genius about constructing a web of control that seemed to welcome people in, but then made it impossible to leave, while also insuring Islam’s survival and growth.

      Newbies who have not yet discovered the brilliant counter-jihad expert David Wood can get an abundantly cited 25 minute ride on Allah’s express train to Hell by going to http://www.answeringmuslims.com, and entering “Three Stages of Jihad” in the search box.

      For a brief, lucid, superb answer to the question asked by clueless /privilege-guilt / moral relativist Americans — “If Islam is violent, why are there so many peaceful Muslims?” — watch David’s five minute masterpiece “The Jihad Triangle”.

      Send links to both of those videos on to everyone you know who is still mentally in the gentle fairyland of illusion about Islam — including your own elected officials — even Democrats. Pissing them off is better than doing nothing at all !

      Yes, Islam is not a religion of peace and it is a fact that Muslims in the West are much more likely to commit religious-based terrorism than members of other religion.
      1) “Muslims account for only about 1 percent of the U.S. population but account for about half of terrorist attacks since 9/11. That means Muslims in the United States are about 5,000 percent more likely to commit terrorist attacks than non-Muslims.” — Mark Krikorian

      trump does not go far enough with his suggestion to close borders to Muslim immigration. There are already over 3 millions of Muslims among us, number of Muslims and mosques had tripled since 9/11/2001 as we are great full for their teachings up a lesson on 9/11/2001.

      Since Obama had come to power over 650,000 Muslims had been admitted and their number is accelerating fast as Obama wants to islamize America… Islam itself is a HATE speech against humanity that results in creating new “soldiers for Allah” every day. Therefore this HATE speech is NOT protected under the First Amandment of the US Constitution and mosques all or USA (some 3,000 of them) should be sued in US courts of law, which will expose this totalitarian, supremacist and imperialistic ideology of Islam which is incompatible with teh US Constitution and the Universal Declaration of Human rights.

The dummy and otherwise compromised judges will cut the legs from under the company. And as a fall back, the Justice Department is there to see to it that it happens.

    Sounds a bit like the two Somalian truck drivers who were fired in 2009 after they wouldn’t deliver alcohol because it was against their religious values as practicing Muslims.. They were awarded $240,000.

    More Somalians, but no hand-outs this time.

    Was the meat they were processing halal? If it wasn’t, then why were they processing it?

    If it was, then why are we eating it?

    Why come to the land of the infidels if it’s not Hijrah as outlined below?

    The rulings about travel to disbelieving countries (Dar ul-Harb) for purposes of trade are broadly detailed. If you are able to assert your faith, while not supporting the disbelievers, then this is permitted. Indeed, some of the Companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him) travelled to some countries of disbelievers in search of trade, among them Abu Bakr as-Siddiq. The Prophet (peace be upon him) did not prevent them from this, as Imam Ahmad points out in his Musnad and elsewhere.

    If you are unable to assert your religion or avoid supporting them, then it is not permitted to venture amongst them for trading purposes. The subject has been addressed by the scholars and the relevant support for their position will be found in the Prophet’s Ahaadeeth. Allah has required all believers to uphold their faith and to oppose the disbelievers. Nothing is allowed to undermine or interfere with these obligations.

  7. Westman says

    Jan 1, 2016 at 3:58 pm

    This is a dominant factor in the low productivity of Islamic nations: breaking up the day with more trips to prayer than meals.

    Imagine the progress of the West if all the great inventors and scientists kept breaking up their thoughts and concentration to go declare themselves a slave and then return to work with that mentality. We would still be in the dark ages.

    Muslims have been pulled out, reticently, of their malaise by the developments of people who gave them artificial sunlight, automobiles, aircraft, radio, tv, toasters, laundry machines, telephones, automated fine-woven fabric, modern medicine, etc; none of them devout Muslims. Find one Muslim who isn’t using one of these developments.

    Yet, too many long for that simple (fabled) past that is more like a Lion that kills, gorges, and then lays about, praying intermittently, until hungry again. This is the mentality of mercenaries, of which ISIS is a prime example.

    Supposedly Allah wanted 50 prayers a day but Muhammad whittled it down to 5 – because it didn’t work for a stable primitive society. It still doesn’t work for a stable modern society because, it isn’t really individual prayer – it’s groupthink that disrupts a business, a street, and sometimes an entire city.

    • Pere LaChaise says

      Jan 1, 2016 at 5:10 pm

      Precisely, Westman.
      I would add that these Saracens give religious observance a bad name with their arrogance. Granted, meat packing is a nasty business and I sympathize with workers in the industry, but there are other battles to fight there. The urge among Saracens to prostrate en masse is abhorrent and should be discouraged as purposefully disruptive and counterproductive.
      I am not necessarily a fan of Cargill and assume that they more or less abuse and exploit their workers. Perhaps these Somalis are pushing back in the only way they know how, as Mohammedans. Victims of that backward culture would lack political, social and spiritual identities beyond the hive mentality malformed in them by imams in village mosques.
      We should be realistic and recognize that these workers possess a social development hundreds of years behind that of their Latino competitors, and we should pity them to some extent. But by all means, the nefarious influence of CAIR must be resisted at every level among us who are already slaves to Allah.

      • Pere LaChaise says

        Jan 1, 2016 at 5:19 pm

        I mean to write, “NOT already slaves of Allah”, of course.

        And to add that every nation that has received an influx of Saracens is forced to accommodate them with special considerations to their oh-so-delicate sensibilities, which amounts to the imposition of Islamic supremacism. It is precisely parallel to the reaction of privileged Southroners at the recent a,ing down of the flags of the Army of Richmond which have passed for so long as Confderate Standards by the history-challenged. The fragility of Southron sensibilities was invoked many times but then roundly laughed to scorn and I think, consigned to oblivion in the mainstream here.

        We ought to apply the same scorn to the delicacy of saracen supremacists as we do white supremacists.

    I would have been given the door . I am there to work ,not pray. but for Obama and these bleeding hearts for allowing muslims to do what they want when they want are reaping the consequences of their actions ,Imagine being afraid of being called islamophobic . Give me a break Hey, tell them ,It’s work or get out .that/s all.

      I also would have been fired for such behavior and would never have been successful later, in my own business, if I had attempted to waste this much time.

      An additional way to look at this would be that these particular folks are bringing a hunter/gatherer mentality that lets the women do all the gritty, continuous work. The prayers are a way to escape from the unwelcome work hours of drudgery, while satisfying the prayer requirement, and can easily be extended beyond the alloted break periods.

    I’m an atheist and I never got any special down time to meditate my hatred for ignorant and violent religions. So I’m especially irked about these accommodations for this bigoted and hateful religion, Islam It’s reverse discrimination. If I’d asked for special consideration for my atheism I would have been forced into a psychiatric evaluation or squeezed out of a job. But companies must bend over backward to appease a violent political faith system that is a flagrant human rights violator and a threat to world peace. I encourage all agnostics and atheists to stand up and demand equal treatment, they should also have a special time during work to contemplate the madness of religion and the virtues of rational humanitarian thought. It’s fair.

    No company should have to compromise their productivity and performance for any religion. If you wanna put your 7th century paganism ahead of your company’s welfare then go to an Islamic country where this pathetic ignorance is the social norm.

    Someone had the courage to fire these people. That is a very good sign! It takes an enormous amount of courage, because now the company must face the wrath of CAIR and be willing to defend themselves in a legal entanglement. God bless them for standing up and saying NO to these outrageous, arrogant, Stone Age demands being made in the modern workplace. People, I urge all of you to keep fighting Islam. Fight at the local level, in your towns, your neighborhoods, your workplaces, and your children’s schools. Say no to their demands for special accommodations (prayer rooms, foot baths, halal or special foods). Look at your kids’ textbooks and other materials – what is being taught? Is it OK, or is it Left wing indoctrination about the “religion of peace?” Understand that it is not the horrific bloody terrorist attacks that will take down the US, but rather, it is the “jihad of Civilization” described in the Muslim Brotherhood’s own document (found by the FBI in a 2004 raid) that will bring about our demise. This involves the slow but steady chipping away of our American way of life and replacing it with sharia, in the courts, schools, workplaces, and everywhere, until Western civilization has been completely eradicated in the name of Allah. Stay strong, my friends. We must fight using all legal means while there is still time. Time is running out.

    They quit. No unemployment compensation either.

    CAIR is not a labor organization, nor are they representing ALL the employees as a qualified labor organization. Their tax status requires that they themselves not discriminate in their own hiring. I wonder if the same applies to whom they represent. Surely they have no interest in representing non-Muslim employees of the plant.

  15. traci94 says

    Jan 1, 2016 at 5:58 pm

    This is unfair on many levels. They are not fired for their religion but for not doing the job they are hired to do. Their (Muslims) rights should end when they start stomping all over the rights of others. The company has the right to hire workers who will get the job done. I think everyone should read the job requirements and the amount of breaks allowed and then have to sign a form saying he or she understands the rules. I guess I’m just to reasonable though. It just makes sense to me that their rights would not supersede the rights of others and that they would have to do the job they are hired to do.

    As news entertainer superstar Bill O’Reilly said a couple of years ago, moderate Moslems are normal people just like other Americans who just want to take care of their families and be left alone. He recently noted that he studied history, taught history, and now writes a couple of history books a year, so he would know.

    The non-Muslim world is expected to accommodate Islam, anywhere, anytime. Never is it the other way around, so supremacist and ungracious is the spiritual fascism which is Islam.

    This in and of itself makes Islam extremely annoying but a risible element in all this is that Islam is the worst religion ever created by man. So, you have the worst expecting accommodation from its betters. Disgusting but oh so Islamic.

    Risible too is to reflect upon all the head banging by Muzzies five times a day and going on for many centuries now and for what? To show submission to an imaginary Allah who was simply Mohammed’s alter ego, his metaphorical hand puppet? The cosmos cares not a whit about this head banging and if a moral higher power exists I am certain it doesn’t either. So all the head banging, every last bang, has been for nothing——and making it all the more laughable is that it’s done with asses in the air. Perhaps the end of Islam will come not principally by way of crushing it but rather by mocking it out of existence. After all, evil deserves to be crushed but it also deserves to be mocked to death. Mock away I say.

      The non-Muslim world is expected to accommodate Islam, anywhere, anytime.

      And the Infidel world does. The only exception to this is the Hindus, and even they tie one hand behind their back.

      … but a risible element in all this is that Islam is the worst religion ever created by man.

      As exemplified by the fact that, according to the Islamic scriptures, their demigod the Holy Prophet ran a protection racket (that still operates today), was a mass murder, had his critics murdered, was a thief, a rapist, a pedophile, a sex slaver… you know the list.

      … all the head banging by Muzzies five times a day and going on for many centuries now and for what? … The cosmos cares not a whit about this head banging and if a moral higher power exists I am certain it doesn’t either. So all the head banging, every last bang, has been for nothing.

      Well, the cosmos may not care, but I do. All that nothing includes great progress towards taking over the world. That’s something.

        Jan 1, 2016 at 9:14 pm

        “Progress,” APF, only if ignoramuses and appeasers aplenty let Islam have its way. Knowledge is power and when you look at people like Obama, McCain, Cameron, May, Kerry, Merkel, Pope Francis, et al. you can readily see that Islam’s “progress” at taking over the world is facilitated not first and foremost by Islamic doctrine but rather by ignorant excuses made for Islamic doctrine.

        In short, the problem ultimately is not Islam but ignorance of Islam. As Ayn Rand noted many times, evil is not the real issue. Rather exculpation of evil by the ignorant is. Never truer than in our time I would argue.

          ” ignorant excuses made for Islamic doctrine”

          Correcto mundo!

          One of my least favorite, current examples being “radical Islamic terrorists”

          It’s all the rage, you know.

          Soon, I think, even Hillary and Bernie will begin to parrot it.

      By law you must hire Moslems. It’s called EEO and Affirmative Action. The latter is an illegal law, but those are manifold nowadays. So we must hire Moslems to repay them for the suffering and humiliation we put them through on the cotton plantations in the antebellum South.

    It is shocking that the US even accoodate this savages and Mr Obama want to import more of them. I think it is part of american ‘values’ to import savages and destructive force into their country. This what I always here from CNN (criminal news network).

    Hopefully, the company made it clear what was expected and the consequences of the employees’ failure to comply. This should have been checked by lawyers.

    Since the workers were fired for failure to show up, the workers should not have a case.

    So civilised compared to the Somalian and Sudanese imports to Australia. Ours just like to go and riot in the streets in cluster bombs of about 200, and wield knives, swords and baseball bats and demolish cars and anything else in the street. Perhaps we could send ours over to the US? Ours clearly already have knife skills. They could replace the ones that were fired and continue on with production. Is it acceptable in the US meat industry to hack away with a machete? Our very own Sudanese and Somalian “butchers” have mastered that skill too.

      They should be forced to work in American pork meat production plants. I’d hire them. The other white meat. As a respect to my new Aussie Moslem workers, I’d run video loops of Gallipoli to enhance their experience on the job.

    I wonder how much of a tax break this company got for hiring the Somali immigrants. I’m sure there must be an AMERICAN who needs that job… Next they’ll be bringing in workers on H2 visas like agriculture.

    Maybe it will be American corporations who will eventually be responsible for ending muslim infiltration of their country, since muslims are far less productive than non-muslims.

    The more we give, the more they will take if there is a decided effort to change things to a certain desired outcome. Good deceived hearts permit more of this and incrementally lose freedoms over time without noticing. It is indeed like alcoholism, insidious. Slowly, the perception of reality is changed from realism and actions based reality to tolerant freedom losing get alongy feely goody utter nonsense for the American Constitution and way of life. Most people basically strive for what’s best for other Americans freedom as well as their own. The POISON that is Islam and Communist thought control mixed with Socialism must be ERADICATED !

    Is Cargill putting meat safety at risk? Aside from the prayer issue, I see a conflict in hiring such religiously observant Muslims to handle meat
    destined for kufr consumption. Knowing other observant Muslims will not be eating this non-halal stuff, what is their incentive to follow hygienic procedures?

    They should move to saudi arabia, and work at a camel pee drink factory. They can pray there.

    Pat Condell summarizes nicely why people shouldn’t hire Muslims. He says race is not an issue, since Indian hindus are not treated the same as muslims.

      Well said. Praying en masse in public, in the schools or at work should be outlawed, no matter what the “religion”. No special rooms, no foot baths, no blocking the street or corridors, no wailing and no call to prayers. The separation of Church and State means that religion is a private matter to be practiced at home or inside a Church. Just as public fornication or the use of even legal drugs in the street or in restaurants is forbidden.

      In most places workers are legally entitled to a ten or 15 minute break every 4 hours, no one is entitled to more because of their race or religion. Employers should provide contracts that explain working hours, job duties and any dress codes in advance and require a signature. Providing some groups with special privileges is intolerant and discriminatory to everyone else.

        Separation of Church and State is NOT a concept found ANYWHERE, repeat, ANYWHERE in your constitution. Your personal wishes are not what the US constitution is now, or have has been, based on. Get used to it.

        • linnte says

          Jan 3, 2016 at 12:58 pm

          Dear Western Canadian, take your own advice. Especially as you say it doesn’t even show up as a “concept”. There are other documents which appear co-commitant with the Constitution also, that define separation of church and state. Given that the Constitution gives all people freedom of practicing their own religion, by the people and for the people, it is impossible that the Constitution supports a solely Christian regime.

        • Western Canadian says

          Jan 4, 2016 at 8:26 pm

          “Given that the Constitution gives all people freedom of practicing their own religion, by the people and for the people, it is impossible that the Constitution supports a solely Christian regime.”

          And since I never said or implied that, your comment is pathetic. Feel free with the ‘other documents’, or STFU.

        • Western Canadian says

          Jan 4, 2016 at 8:33 pm

          “Feel free with the ‘other documents’, or STFU.”

          \Should be ‘feel free to quote the ‘other documents’ or STFU!!!’

          And islam is a ‘religion’ that seeks to destroy all others, so calling it a religion, is a suicide wish.

    • Elleblue Jones says

      Jan 4, 2016 at 5:03 am

      How about unrealistic expectations. I don’t have a problem with any religious tradition. Many persecuted religious groups have sought refuge in the US and found it. They still manage to maintain their religious beliefs and assimilate into the prevailing culture. If some Muslims can’t manage this then perhaps they need to look to their motives and actions as the main obstacles to their success here.

  32. Edgar Allen says

    Here’s a fatwa that proves they can delay prayer till after work

    “But if you try hard to join the congregation, but are not able to do so because of the situation you mentioned, and you cannot find suitable work or study, which will allow you to pray in congregation, there is nothing wrong with you completing your work or your studies that you cannot do without, then catch up with the prayer before the time for it ends, either individually or together in congregation with one another, if you are able to do that. ”

    If you Muslims don’t like it go back to your own countries and do what you want there don’t try to change life in America it won’t be tolerated you’re just a new generation of crybabies grow up and get jobs live your life leave other people alone simple as that.

    Islam is not a religion. It is an evil political totalitarian way of life. It must have NO RIGHTS under the US constitution or its first amendment!

    “They feel missing their prayer is worse than losing their job,” Hussein said.

    Obviously, they don’t, otherwise they’d change their job voluntarily.

    • linnte says

      Jan 5, 2016 at 1:30 pm

      Excellent point! At least THAT’S what I would do if my prayer or anything else was most important. This point of yours is a perfect example of how Muslim refugees will covertly attempt to change our values.
