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

Belgium and France seized dozens of sheep to prevent illegal slaughter for Eid al-Adha

Aug 8, 2020 1:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

This story illustrates the fact that many Muslim migrants have a vastly different set of values from those that most people hold in the West. Mass migration has brought their value system to Europe and North America. The illegal slaughter of animals in open view is not a practice to which Westerners are accustomed.

Belgian authorities seized about 70 sheep to prevent them from being illegally slaughtered for the Islamic Eid al-Adha holiday. The Islamic holiday began on July 30 and ended on August 3; the animals were seized shortly before the festival. This year marked “the first year in which a new law banning the slaughter of animals without stunning came into effect in Wallonia, with police saying the change in law could explain the rise in the number of seizures compared to 2019…..France has also had issues with the illegal slaughter of animals during Eid, and in 2018 police seized 32 sheep in the suburbs of Paris that were being hidden in the garage of a local pizzeria.”

Days ago in France, a Muslim filmed himself slaughtering sheep in his bathtub for Eid.

As globalists continue to advocate for and implement suicidal immigration policies, practices such as the open slaughter of animals and worse will become increasingly commonplace.

“Belgium: Dozens of Sheep Seized to Stop Illegal Muslim Eid Slaughters,” by Chris Tomlinson, Breitbart, August 4, 2020:

Belgian authorities seized around 70 sheep in total in the provinces of Brabant and Hainaut, preventing the animals from being illegally slaughtered for the Islamic Eid al-Adha holiday.

The seizures came shortly before the Islamic festival, which took place over the weekend in the two Wallonian provinces, and police say the seizures this year were far higher than the year before.

This year is also the first year in which a new law banning the slaughter of animals without stunning came into effect in Wallonia, with police saying the change in law could explain the rise in the number of seizures compared to 2019, La Dernière Heure reports.

The new law, which came into force in September of last year, allows for individuals to request permits to slaughter animals at home but, in practice, many municipalities outright refuse to grant them as it is impossible for them to determine whether an animal was stunned or not before slaughter.

The animals seized by the authorities were eventually taken in by a local horse shelter in Steenkerque, which took in 65 sheep, and a shelter in Bousval, which offered to take 16 of the animals….

    Where is PETA? I have heard not a word of condemnation from these worthless blowhards. I guess they are afraid of losing their funding from Soros and other masochistic idiots.

      PETA does condemn inhumane Halal slaughter:

        Thanks GI, I had not seen this before and I stand corrected.

      • Kepha says

        Aug 9, 2020 at 3:04 pm

        PETA goes after anyone who eats meat and, presumably, wears leather.

        If this were only about people wanting to butcher their own mutton, I’d say to let libertarian principles prevail. But it’s the way Islam is all for butchering people over every imaginary slight that worries me.

      • gravenimage says

        Aug 9, 2020 at 3:31 pm

        Thank you, Ray.

        Kepha, this video refers specifically to Halal slaughter, not all meat eating. As for Libertarianism in this case, I might agree if not for the humanitarian and public health aspects of this–would you *really* want your neighbors mass slaughtering animals in their driveway?

        And you are right that many Muslims have said openly that cutting the throats of animals is practice for beheading humans.

        • Kepha says

          Aug 9, 2020 at 6:58 pm

          I did some ancestry tracing and found kosher butchers in the family tree a few generations back (yes, I’m a Mischling). I’ve also known people in the American heartland (which begins ten miles outside the Capital Beltway) who hunted, and gave my wife and me some venison that they’d skinned and dressed themselves. I’ve known rural people in both the USA and the Far East who did their own butchery of hogs and poultry. Hence, drawing a knife across a sheep’s throat sounds a lot like practices that harmless people have engaged in– much as I can’t agree with the Islamic creed and much Islamic practice.

          As for neighbors slaughtering animals in their driveway, there was a landmark US Supreme Court case Church of the Lukumi Babalu Aye v. City of Hialeah, FL. It affirmed that a city ordinance forbidding home butchery was aimed at a Santeria group supported by Afro-Cuban immigrants (some of them didn’t feel “liberated” by the Communists, either), and violated their Free Exercise of religion rights. I’m no big fan of Santeria, but I can see how their right to sacrifice a goat or chicken in the back yard protects my right to see homosexuality and a whole raft of other behaviors as sinful. In the USA, the First Amendment also allows the Muslims to engage in halal slaughter of quadrupeds and poultry.

          I also understand that the EU has plans to go after kosher slaughter, too. Believing as I do that M’schiach has come, the laws of kashrut aren’t something to which I adhere. But I also think that interfering with a generally harmless community’s practices is governmental overreach.

          If Europe wants to tame Islam, it would be better advised to engage in massive deportations of the Yoots who trash neighborhoods and other people’s cars.

          Kepha, here is a horrific video of a Muslim mob in Gaza abusing and slaughtering animals in the streets:

          https://matzav.com/watch-horrific-videos-emerge-of-animal-slaughter-in-gaza-for-their-eid-holiday/

          There are also hideous videos of Muslims in Gaza running through the streets, showing off their bloody hands and clothes. You may be fine with this savagery in our own streets; I myself am not.

          Aug 10, 2020 at 5:50 am

          @Kepha, the Lukumi Babalu Aye case involved a statute prohibiting specifically a “ritual or ceremony”. A law of general application governing the treatment of animals would be Constitutional.

          Also Kepha, you continue to point your judgmental finger at people, now “a raft of other behaviors”, forgetting that you have three fingers pointing back at yourself. Your attempts to cast misjudgments at others do not fool anyone; to the contrary, you appear to be trying to distract from judgment of your own sins.

      • curious says

        @gravenimage, thanks for the PeTA link.

        PeTA used to draw attention with some really brazen tactics, e.g. throwing fake blood on people wearing fur. I wonder if a splinter group might consider throwing some pork blood on Muslim slaughterers at Eid. It might not even need to be real pork blood; the story itself would draw attention to Islamic cruelty, helping people to see what Islam says and does.

    Think of the bathtubs that have been spared from blood and …. And also spared are new renters who might worry about the history of the bathtub.

    Hmmm. There have been movies about the history of hotel rooms – why not a movie about the history of bathtubs?

    What do you say to a man who kills sheep for the love of Allah? “Am I next?”

    • gravenimage says

      You aren’t wrong–Muslims have openly admitted that cutting the throats of animals is practice for beheading humans.

        It likely desensitizes them – completely.

    Terrorizing an animal while killing is in humane. Stunning the animal so it does not feel the pain is decency. Most of mankind has come out of the dark ages. Muslims still live in a barbaric society.

    They kill humans they kill goats. One cannot loathe Muslims deeply enough.

    • tim gallagher says

      Aug 9, 2020 at 12:49 am

      I agree, OTTER. Islam is endlessly barbaric, vicious and cruel (sadistic is probably a better word). Islam’s attitude towards every aspect of life is sickening and backward. I cannot fathom the way that many people tell us this vile belief system deserves to receive respect. I guess they must be people who know absolutely bugger all about the evil ideology. I’m with you, I loathe Islam. I can find nothing good in it and Islam’s vicious treatment of animals is typical.

    they then should ONLY kill there own children
    yes I sick
    but think how sick these people are
    if not stopped this will be the norm
    and your children will be up coming adults part of this cult

    Import savages into civilised communities and you end up with savagery, rapist dogs, etc. all due to Islamic barbarity. The only answer is to get rid of them.

    • Savvy Kafir says

      Aug 9, 2020 at 4:36 pm

      I agree. The West needs to be made 100% Muslim-free, before it’s too late. There should be zero tolerance for this barbaric ideology, and for anyone who embraces it.

      And the longer this savagery goes on, the less I care about how we achieve that goal of zero Muslims in the West. If governments won’t deport them, Islam-savvy patriots should motivate Muslims to “self-deport”.

      I find your post offensive to dogs. Dogs are not savage rapists. Only muslims are.

  10. Marigold says

    The Belgian authorities are not doing enough.They should go much further and make those caught illegally slaughtering animals a crime punishable by a term of imprisonment to stamp out this disgusting barbaric practice once and for all.Islamic practices like this will ensure that Muslims can never assimilate in Western Societies something they have no intentions of doing anyway.
