Recently, bikini-blogger and Islamophobe extraordinaire, Pamela Gellar issued a warning that the Butterball Company is supporting international terrorism by providing \u201cStealth Halal\u201d Turkeys to American families.<\/p>\n

Gellar states on her website:<\/p>\n

Across this great country, on Thanksgiving tables nationwide, infidel Americans are unwittingly going to be serving halal turkeys to their families this Thursday. Turkeys that are halal certified \u2014 who wants that, especially on a day on which we are giving thanks to G-d for our freedom? I wouldn\u2019t knowingly buy a halal turkey \u2014 would you? Halal turkey, slaughtered according to the rules of Islamic law, is just the opposite of what Thanksgiving represents: freedom and inclusiveness, neither of which are allowed for under that same Islamic law.<\/em><\/p>\n

Geller also calls on those who share her viewpoint to boycott the company.<\/p>\n

Of course Gellar doesn\u2019t realize that Butterball, a global company, is catering to their international market, which includes 10 Muslim-majority countries such as Saudi Arabia and Iraq.<\/p>\n

Here is a statement from Butterball\u2019s international website<\/a>:<\/p>\n

As an international turkey provider, we have the expertise in serving different countries and different customs, and will work with you to meet any and all product needs. We have met the requirements for the following certifications: USDA Approved, Russian Approved, Halal Certified, and employ a Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HAACP) food safety system with Good Manufacturing processes. From great customer service to new product innovation to the proper certifications, Butterball has the experience you need to get our great tasting turkey in your market.<\/em><\/p>\n

There are approximately 8 million Muslims in America, and the vast majority probably do not care if their Turkey is halal certified. But of course many Muslims, such as myself, do enjoy eating halal Turkey and spending time with close friends and family during Thanksgiving. Ironically, most Muslim-Americans feel that Thanksgiving is very similar to the Islamic holiday of Eid-ul-Adha, where another type of animal (a goat or lamb) is shared over the dinner table with family.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a recipe for preparing that \u201cStealth Halal\u201d Turkey.<\/p>\n
