Racist Soup

The latest addition to French cuisine. From the BBC:

Charity groups with far-right links serving pork soup to homeless people face a crackdown by French officials.

Protesters have accused the groups of deliberate discrimination against Jews and Muslims, who do not eat the meat.

Strasbourg officials have banned the hand-outs and police in Paris have closed soup kitchens in an effort to avert racial tension.

The charities have defended offering what they call traditional cuisine to French and European homeless people.

The groups, operating in cities across France and neighbouring Belgium, are not formally linked but are associated with a small far-right organisation called Bloc Identitaire.

    This situation merits some thought.

    This shows that the standards for right-wing racist agitation have declined precipitously…instead of Krystallnacht we have pork soup for the homeless. I have a hard time believing Hitler would have approved this program.

    Be fair. My local discriminates with its beer and scratchings … re your next post, did you see that Mannlicher (Austria) have sold a large number of 0.5 sniper rifles to Iran. Not good news for Iraq or Afghanistan.

    HS50 Steyr-Mannlicher .50 calibre rifles can pierce body armour from up to a mile, shoot down helicopters and penetrate Humvee troop carriers that have not been fully reinforced.The weapons are highly accurate and fire a round called an armour-piercing incendiary, a bullet that the Iranians manufacture. There are fears in the Pentagon that some will reach insurgents fighting allied forces in Iraq.
