There isn't much to bring the Jewish and Islamic faith together but they have found one thing that they can agree on, an inhumane way of slaughtering animals.
Kosher and Halal meat requires that the animal to be turned into food for their plates must be killed with a single slash to the throat and then left to bleed out until it dies which is contrary to the EU laws which requires livestock be electronically stunned prior to slaughter.
While stunning before shooting a bolt through its brain is barbaric enough, slitting the animals throat and leaving it to die in agony is ruthlessly heinous and cruel so the practise is rightly banned under animal welfare reasons.
Islamic and Jewish religious groups have been up in arms as the EU brings more of it's nations under its ruling and have labelled it Antisemitic and Islamophobic.
Hate to disappoint you but it has nothing to do with hating Jews or Muslims and everything to do with the massively vile and nefarious way that you treat animals destined for your dinner plates.
If you don't like it, there are plenty of other things you can eat which doesn't involve killing living things.
