Pork Soup, Anyone?

French dhimmitude has taken a blow today, albeit a minor one...

In March I did a post about "Identity Soup."

The pork based soup, which is inexpensive to make and regarded as a traditional country dish is served in many French soup kitchens, free to the poor and accompanied with a glass of red wine and any clothing the impoverished may need.

French police had been gunning to shut the free kitchens down for some months, citing that the fare was not halal, and therefore discriminatory .

Ever hear of "beggars can't be choosers?"

Last month French dhimmi-cops banned such soup kitchens entirely, tacking on that Jews were also being discriminated against, as well as Muslims. Today, a French appellate court overturned the ban, ruling that since the soup kitchens were serving those seeking their help they were not being discriminatory.

In other words, they are a privately owned and run charity organization. They can serve whatever the hell they like, and if you want halal, go to a government welfare office. (I would say get a job, but we're talking about the French economy here...)

Have you ever heard of Jewish folk complaining about the food in soup lines, schools, ect? Have we heard of entire public schools in the UK converting to the cruel practice of halal slaughter to service a handful of Muslim kids?

From al-Reuters:

The mayor of Paris condemned the ruling and urged the police to appeal the ruling.

"Faced by this initiative which stinks of xenophobia, I want once again to express city hall's desire to fight all forms of discrimination, racism and anti-Semitism," mayor Bertrand Delanoe said in a statement.

The food handouts are organized by a nationalist group called Solidarity of the French (SDF). It says its "pig soup," which uses pork fat for stock, is country fare much loved by French traditionalists.

"No-one has ever been able to prove that anyone has been refused soup or clothes on the grounds of their religion or race," SDF lawyer Frederic Pichon told France Info radio after Tuesday's court decision.
