Raging bull shot dead in Hebron

Published Tuesday 27/04/2010 (updated) 28/04/2010 16:37

Bethlehem – Ma'an – A bull escaped Tuesday from a butchery in the West Bank city of Hebron, injuring people and ramming cars.

Civil Defense forces were called to the scene, and attempted to coax the bull by surrounding and redirecting it elsewhere, but failed.

Palestinian Authority police intervened. They tried surrounding the animal without success, and ultimately shot it dead.

I would escape from a butchery too! Wouldn't u? It sounds like a bleak ending...no doubt the animal was wounded in the ramming of cars and just as shocked and injured as the people.

What a sad demise for a formidable beast. All to satisfy these people's apetite :(

Sherezade, you should be able to answer this, you're so full of bull

A sincere question, since the bull was killed by a rather unusual means, bullet instead of knife, is the meat Halal? and permissible to eat

this was a zionist Bull looking for 72 balwztinian virgins. since the bull found none we conclude his rage was justified.

Well I'm not an expert but if the executioner recited the proper verses and prayers prior to the kill - it should be halal.

Suha/Malta

Why would a Jewish bull be looking for 72 Palestinian virgins, that would be like pursuing the Holy Grail, which we know is merely a fable

Nour/Palestine
To be Halal, shouldn't the slaughter be by a knife, instead of a bullet?

Anyway, for those that aren't too observant and eat a bit of pork now and then, it wouldn't really matter, just as long as he grilled up nicely

Was probably the most humane and swiftest method to deal with it. The bull was out of control and distressed too no doubt.
I am quite sure he would not go to waste.
