Barack Hussein Obama’s declared BFF*, Recep Erdogan, Prime Minister of Turkey, is slowly moving the once secular state toward an increasingly Islamic fundamentalist one.
*BFF – Best Friends Forever
Even without that Arabic music and writing, you can tell this happened in a Muslim country. BNI posts examples of Muslim animal abuse all the time, starting with barbaric halal slaughter, dog poisonings, cat skinnings, etc.
UPDATE: According to some translated material (h/t Alan K) about this horror story: The video clip is of young Algerians setting fire to the donkey to the tune of Song of Songs “Rai.” Laughter from the boys can be heard.
The Humane Society of Algeria is investigating the case and checking the identity of the boy who burned the donkey alive. Apparently their main concern is not punishment of the boy but of making sure public opinion doesn’t hurt the international reputation of Algeria.
It is noteworthy that Arabs are subjected to severe condemnation in America and Europe because of their brutal treatment of animals, such as from a broadcast of a young Egyptian man throwing a dog off the top of a building.

Kosher – requires the animal be slaughtered quickly and humanely, strictly forbidding cruel slow methods like strangulation.
Halal – requires the animal be bled out in agony while sick people who get off watching that kind of thing have a “festival.”
Kosher – requires the blood be drained cleanly from the *carcass* of the humanely killed animal, removing toxins released from cells into the bloodstream at the moment of death from the meat.
Halal –leaves the meat *filled* with toxins released at the moment of death because the blood is removed while the animal is dying and therefore is not present in sufficient quantities to remove those last toxins.
Kosher – contains little to no cortisol or norepenepherine (two stress chemicals that are similar enough from mammal to mammal to cross species) because the animal to be killed is treated well before it is put down and is generally not frightened as it is put down (because in a truly kosher slaughter situation, animals cannot be slaughtered in a sequential fashion, as the waste of one could contaminate the next, so they are not exposed to the “scent of death” the way non-kosher culls are)
Halal – animals watch other animals die during the blood letting festival, smelling their fear and raising their own stress. These stress chemicals “marinate” the meat in hormones known to raise levels of aggression and violence in nearly all mammal species (including human).
Kosher – requires cooking the cleanly drained meat completely, cooking any remaining stress chemicals into oblivion.
Halal – allows for a surprising range of cooking methods, including even some “tar tar” dishes (raw or nearly raw), allowing for the spread of disease and chemicals and hormones that were not removed by the idiotic slow bloodletting practice and half-measure cooking.
Kosher – the spinal cord is sectioned thus cutting off pain to the brain. Therefore, no suffering or terror.
Halal – spinal cord left intact.
British journalist and broadcaster, Jeremy Clarkson, may regret joining the debate on whether burkas should be permitted in Britain in his own inimitable style. The outspoken presenter provoked a flurry of complaints after telling viewers of Top Gear on Sunday night that he had seen a Muslim woman wearing sexy underwear beneath her burka.
Note to the reader: This is the first article in a three-part survey of “Denying Islam’s Role in Terror.” The other two parts, by Teri Blumenfeld and David Rusin, look at the specific phenomenon of denial in the FBI and the U.S. military, respectively.
|Please Help: Hindu Human Rights Activists Need iPads and Cameras|
Namaste HAF Supporters,
Do you have used, functional iPads or digital cameras that you’d like to donate?
If so, we can use them! Hindu human rights activists working on the ground in countries of concern – such as Bangladesh, Malaysia, and Pakistan – need iPads and digital cameras to document and communicate their life-saving work.
These activists cannot afford to purchase their own equipment. Your donation will go a long way in helping the lives of Hindus who face serious human rights violations.
Please note: 1) iPads are preferable to cameras. 2) iPads must be unlocked. If your iPad is not unlocked, please do not send it.
If you would like to donate an iPad or a digital camera, please contact Jay Kansara, HAF’s Associate Director, at firstname.lastname@example.org (202) 223-8222.
