FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Your average person would never torture a dog. They would be appalled by a dog being neutered without anesthetic or put down in a violent way. They would consider dog’s intelligent and, of course, able to feel fear and pain.

By our own standards, pigs are more intelligent than dogs. Why then do we allow them to be castrated without anesthetic and gassed as part of the slaughter procedure?

We know they feel pain and fear!

So, how do you justify the cruelty?

The Reality of Dairy

 

If you think dairy is happy cows in green fields you couldn’t be more wrong.

Just today, a dairy farm was exposed for violence against cows and calves: routinely kicking, stabbing, shoving, dragging and leaving dead calves out in the open to rot in front of the cows.

If you think this only happens in non-western countries, you couldn’t be more wrong. This is happening on a farm that is a major supplier of dairy in the UK.

Even in the most benign cases, calves are ripped away from their mothers, cows are impregnated yearly, most often by artificial insemination, milked until they are worn out and then sent for slaughter, male calves are primarily shipped off for veal and females suffer the same fate as their mothers.

KEEP THIS IN MIND

Each year approximately 500-700 Palestinian children, some as young as 12 years old, are detained and prosecuted in the Israeli military court system. The most common charge is stone throwing (2025 Defense for Children Palestine).

After committing over 1,000 violations of the ceasefire agreement, Israel has decided to totally collapse the agreement, resuming its killing and destruction spree with the massive bombardment of Gaza, again raining death and destruction on the Palestinian people (dated 19 March 2025 from the Permanent Observer of the State of Palestine to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly and the President of the Security Council).

Most of the Israeli hostages were freed due to peaceful negotiations.

Not armed conflict.

Palestinians were told not to celebrate during the release process of Palestinian hostages under threat of being arrested.

Within a two year time period, 30 Ukrainian children suffered amputations.

Within a two month time period, 1000 Palestinian children suffered amputations.

There are more child amputees in Gaza than anywhere.

The question is not, do you condemn Hamas?

The question is, do you condemn the Balfour Declaration?
