Campbell's Soup is going halal to please enemy-funded crowd

To practitioners of Islam, halal (the Arabic word for “lawful”) is important. Halal works for Muslims in ways comparable to that of kosher for Jews. And halal is catching on, accounts The Stir. Campbell’s Soup will soon produce halal-approved varieties marked by the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). Campbell’s goods in Canada could be the first to bear the ISNA insignia.

Campbell’s soup halal has Warhol ’spinning in his grave’

There is no small amount of controversy surrounding the move toward Campbell Soup halal-certified goods. According to The Stir, the ISNA has accepted ties to the fundamentalist organization Hamas, which is classified as a terrorist organization by numerous nations, such as the United States. The ISNA has an interesting donor. The Sunni Wahhabi sect funds the group. Based on Wikipedia, Muhammad ibn Abd-al-Wahhab was the 18th century scholar who founded the crowd which advocated “purging Islam of impurities.” Muslims ought to “always oppose infidels in each and every way” and “hate them for their religion… for Allah’s sake.” That is what a recent Wahhabi publication found by the NGO Freedom House study, advised. The American iconic Campbell’s Soup can painting had been done by Andy Warhol. This is why The Stir thinks he could be spinning in his grave now.

Campbell Soup being boycotted on Facebook

There generally isn’t a whole lot of troubles with the kosher foods in The United States that are typically common. However, what are perceived by some as all-too-apparent links to terrorism have germinated various grassroots movements, like the Facebook crowd “Boycott Campbell Soup.”. When Campbell claims that “a Halal mark does not change what is inside the can — it means only the ingredients used to make the soup have been reviewed by the largest non-profit, religious, educational, and non-political Islamic organization in North The United States,” what groups like Boycott Campbell Soup hear is tacit acceptance of enemy activities in the name of corporate profit. What Campbell Canada calls a “commitment to diversity and extraordinary, authentic nourishment for all,” others call an affront to freedom-loving peoples.

Campbell’s Customer Reaction Center, which can be contacted at 800-410-7687, is ready to take phone calls.
