Australia's largest sheep meat exporter, Roger Fletcher, says the reputation of Australia's meat export industry will be severely undermined if animals continue to be slaughtered without first being stunned.

Thanks for the story, Animalib.
"Princess Alia bint Al Hussein of Jordan has written to Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, saying stunning does conform with Islamic law, and should be compulsory."

that would soooooo cut into their profits, G Girl and that is all they care about, I mean c'mon they feed chicken feces to the factory animals, they don't care about them or the people they poison with the rotting flesh.

AGAIN WELFARE TACTICS. IT IS barbaric enough these animals are being killed for food to start with. but to slaughter them with them awake and aware of the horror is downright prehistoric and unacceptable.

RELIGIOUS PEOPLE ARE SOME OF THE WORST MONSTERS ON EARTH. WHAT THEY DO IN THE NAME OF GOD IS OUTRIGHT BARBARIC AND AGAINST GOD.

Actually the article got it wrong, "Princess Alia bint Al Hussein of Jordan has written to Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, saying stunning does NOT conform with Islamic law, and should IS NOT compulsory." Is what she said.

Personally, I could care less what faith one belongs too and what they feel they need to do in the murdering of animals!

You're right Sheila, in any regard, it will tear into profits and that is what we want as we know these hideous things in the name of money, religion, and so forth, are going on!

Faith is about love and Caring unless one is a Satanist!

Any faith that proposes the hideous murder of animals whether it be Jewish, Christian, Islamic, what have you, are all fools!

Thank you,
