World Business: The Huge business of Halal 15/01/10

World Business: In Islam, the word halal stands for all that is permitted under Islamic Shariah law and estimates suggest around 70 percent of the worlds 1.5 billion Muslims follow Halal food standards. But food is not the only product where the halal label gets the tills ringing these days.

NO - WE DON'T WANT THE EXTRA COST OF HALAL CERTIFICATION - JUST LABEL ALL RELIGIOUSLY SLAUGHTERED MEAT IN PLAIN ENGLISH PLEASE!

I DON'T WANT THE PROFITS TO GO INTO ISLAMIC AIMS!

I DON'T WANT MONEY GOING FROM MY COUNTRY TO SHARIA BONDS&DINARS

I DON'T WANT INDIRECT TAXES - ZAKAT - 1/8 of which funds Islamic Freedom Fighters ie.TERRORISTS!

THE NON-MUSLIM MAJORITY WANT NORMAL MEAT - NOT HALAL RELIGIOUSLY SLAUGHTERED MEAT.

Why resort to outdated 7th Century Peasant slaughter practices in 21 Century?

What about the huge business of NON- HALAL? There are more of us who don't want to eat it than there are that do. Who is listenening to us???????? People power is what we need, don't buy meat unless you know it's origin and slaughter method - most supermarkets now sell unlabelled halal meat. Voice your opinion or soon you will have no opinion !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MrTStrike]

Halal is nothing than pure satanic evil. These animals are slaughtered in the name of SATAN. No god would want you to kill an animal in this way in his name, only SATAN would.

Blood evil demon bastards.

I am free-you are ignorant.

What sort of Vegan accepts that sentient creatures be slaughtered?

The animals killed in slaughterhouses are bred specifically to be eaten you moron.

[denfriend]

Stop being so racist and sanctimonious. All meat is a dead animal. Do you think animals killed in non Halal slaughter houses do not suffer? ALL animals are capable of experiencing fear and pain, they are sentient creatures, just like us.

Don't support violence-go Vegan

[tegarac]

people make slaughtering thausens years elektrocution is onley 50 years in praksis.

[Kumajirourizu]

@akochingus If dying by slaughter is bad, then isn't dying by electrocution worst?

You are obviously ignorant of how & why the slaughter is carried out; it is not to torture the animals, instead the slaughtered animals died quicker than being electrocuted. (>.>)

[keltow]

Go to hell with your halal..

Quality standards ? These people are brain damaged!!!
