Muslims Now Demanding Special Muslim Welfare... The Details Will Infuriate You According to recent reports, a Somali womens advocacy group in Minnesota has started demanding that the city provide halal food within their food bank for needy Islamic citizens. Halal is food that is permissible to eat under Islamic law. Adding a Halal shelf to the food bank would mean that taxpayers were paying more to accommodate Muslims. The commissioners office has ignored Isuroons requests for review and the community needs to respond to let the public known what has transpired, the group said in a statement. We want to make Commissioner Peter McLaughlin and the public know that we are serious about our need for an Ethnic Food Shelf which provides halal and appropriate nutrition for our community. Surprisingly, the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan area has a large Islamic population, the majority of which stem from Somalia. The area is also home to a terrorist recruitment center, and several of its residents have traveled to the Middle East to join ISIS. And although the group is larger compared to other cities, the Islamic population still represents a small minority. What do you think? Should Muslims on Welfare be allowed to dictate their diet?
