Halal Food Fight and Worse in the U.K. due to Sharia, الشريعة الإسلامي

For the uninitiated, all of us infidels, ”Halal (Arabic:حلال, ḥalāl; means lawful or legal) a term designating any object or an action which is permissible to use or engage in, according to Islamic law. It is the opposite of haraam. The term is used to designate food seen as permissible according to Islamic law (Sharia, الشريعة الإسلامية).” (Wikipedia)

Got that? Apparently they don’t in the formerly Great Britain where a classic food fight is in progress pitting Christians against Muslims. Like so many other Christian-Muslim battles, tugs of war, especially in the U.K., the Muslims are winning.

The terms ”Great” Britain and ”United” Kingdom are fast becoming anachronistic for many reasons, not the least of which is England’s huge influx of Muslims from all over the globe, Muslims who have since been flexing their Islamic muscles. The latest field of battle is the arena of halal-approved foods and if it’s true that we are what we eat, Brit infidels will soon be converting to the religion of Allah, not without some resistance, however.

“A Christian organization in Britain has launched a petition campaign aimed at defending the right of those who for religious, moral or other reasons do not want to eat meat slaughtered according to Islamic law (shari’a).”

Still, the Nehemiahs maintain the quaint notion that infidel Brits should be entitled to eat what they want rather than eat what Muslims want them to eat.

What’s this world coming to? Operation Nehemiah thinks it knows: “It argues that the mainstreaming of halal across the world constitutes part of a global Islamization drive:” http://tiny.cc/ti3ro

To be crude, “No sheat, Nehemiah sherlocks!”

The halal issue came to light in the most unlikely of British places, the House of Commons, when lawmakers discovered that, unbeknownst to them, they had been scarfing down halal poultry for an unknown period of time.

As Seinfeld might say, “Not that there’s anything wrong with that” since halal dietary laws are little different from kashrut or what we call Jewish kosher food. The sticking point, the sticky wicket, as Brits say, is that the chefs in the Commons’ eatery failed to inform their customers that they were the subjects of a P.C. movement as well as being the subjects of Her Majesty.

As Conservative MP from East Yorkshire, Greg Knight, indignantly objected, . . .
