HaAretz on Meat

The fishwrap HaAretz, in its non-stop campaign to occupy the moral high ground and humiliate the Netaniyahu government has found a new item to pound home Israeli cruelty. Under the local animal rights movement attack, the government had agreed to restrict the import of live animals and instead to buy frozen meat. I don't understand how that will reduce the slaughtering of cattle or the total of animal suffering, but anyway, there was a 100 calves shipment from Hungary and some of them died on the way. It cannot be on purpose because each death means monetary loss to the owners. Today's fishwrap harps about the cruelty of the Agriculture Minister and by extension, the evil government. HaAretz assumes the mantle of protector of "the rights of those who cannot speak". This time they mean animals.

BTW, I never buy fresh meat but frozen Polish meat. I did not realize that it was the moral thing to do. It also costs less.
