The world’s largest halal food certification company is the Islamic Food and Nutrition Council of America (IFANCA), based in Park Ridge, Illinois, an affluent suburb of Chicago. IFANCA’s symbol, a crescent alongside an “M,” can be found on different baby formulas, including ones made by leading brands Similac and Gerber, their Crescent-M dwarfing the O-U kosher hechsher sitting next to it.Read the whole article. Its interesting. Then maybe drop a line to your whole email list and your MP/CongressCritter.
Those seeking kosher food – even those seeking halal food – or anyone else who uses these baby food products may be shocked to find out that IFANCA is linked to international terrorism and bigotry.
IFANCA is working with the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) to create a national halal standards and accreditation body. In 2007 and 2008, ISNA, which was co-founded by Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) leader Sami al-Arian, was named by the United Sates Justice Department as a co-conspirator in the financing of millions of dollars to Hamas. Just this past September, the Canadian government stripped ISNA of its tax status in Canada for the financing of a Pakistani terrorist group.
IFANCA is an active member of the Council of Islamic Organizations of Greater Chicago (CIOGC). Other members include: the Mosque Foundation (MF), which has held fundraisers for individuals and groups associated with PIJ and Hamas; Islamic Relief (IR), which has been associated with al-Qaeda financing and that was named by the Israeli government a front for Hamas; Helping Hand (HH), which partnered with a Pakistani charity at the same time that charity delivered close to $100,000 to the residence of the head of Hamas, Khaled Meshaal; and the Muslim American Society (MAS), which has used the internet to propagate materials degrading women, cursing Christians, and calling for the murder of Jews and homosexuals.
I've been pretty consistent in saying that Lefties are a greater threat to Canada than Islamists, but I see no reason to give the head chopping terrorist pricks a bunch of free money.

Keep in mind, there are still Chinese-made products for parents to buy for their children whether to eat or play with. If not giving a crap about their personal safety is routine, one can imagine who completely they don't care about funding terrorism.
ReplyDeleteHi Osumashi. I'm just chucking a bit of sugar in the Jihadi's gas tank. Any time the truth is inconvenient to guys like that, its good to bray it far and wide.
ReplyDeleteThe Chicoms are another, different bunch of bastards. I'll sugar their gas next time the opportunity comes along. :)
3.3 million hectares of arable land in China is unusable due to pollution.
ReplyDeleteGood thing we're not letting our pets eat snacks that come from China, eh?
Yeah, the more we hear out of China the more I think they are going to collapse before Europe and the USA, and much, much harder. There's only so long you can go on pissing in your own drinking water before something bad happens.
