France's "racist" soup kitchens to shut down

[Dr William Pierce]

Link

The temperature on the street had dropped to minus three and the homeless stood in knots of two or three, blowing on their hands to relieve the bitter cold, as plastic bowls of steaming soupe au cochon were prepared.

"Hot wine?" asked the elegant blonde woman behind the table. But before anything could be served, the police arrived flourishing an order from the local authorities in Strasbourg to shut down the mobile soup kitchen.

The scene has been repeated all over France in recent weeks after complaints that extreme Right-wing groups have been serving "racist" food.

As a result of the closures, hundreds of homeless people will go hungry. The groups giving out the soup say it is nothing more than traditional French cuisine.

Angry protesters retort, however, that they are deliberately offering ham sandwiches and soup made of pork to discriminate against Muslims and Jews who cannot eat the meat for religious reasons. The groups behind the soup kitchens are not formally linked, but they are associated with an ultra Right-wing organisation called Bloc Identitaire.

Officials say the groups are not breaking the law. In Strasbourg and Nice, however, food handouts have been banned on the grounds that they could lead to "public disorder".

In Paris, police have stopped the serving of pork soup at major stations on "administrative grounds" - because the soup kitchens have not got the correct papers - to avoid racial tensions. Fabienne Keller, the Mayor of Strasbourg, said: "Schemes with racial subtexts must be denounced."

Chantal Spieler, the blonde serving soup in Strasbourg as president of the charity SolidaritÃԠ’Ô� ’Ãâ┚¬ ’ƒÃƒ¢Ã¢”š¬�Ã…¡ÃƒÆ’ƒâ┚¬Ã…¡ÃƒÆ’”�Å¡© Alsacienne, was defiant.

"For as long as there are people who are hungry and cold I will disobey this unfair decision," she said.

Even Lhaj Thanmi Breze, president of the Union of Islamic Organisations in France, disagreed with closing the soup kitchens, although he regretted that they were serving pork.

Looks as if France may have learned something from the riots

French court rules pork soup kitchen not racist
Wed Jan 3, 2007

PARIS (Reuters) - A French court ruled Tuesday that an organization with far-right links can continue offering pork soup to the homeless, rejecting police complaints that the food distribution was racist.

Police banned the soup kitchen last month, arguing that the handouts discriminated against Jews and Muslims who do not eat pork on religious grounds.

The administrative court said the distribution was "clearly discriminatory," but could not be stopped because the organizers offered to feed anyone who asked for help.

The mayor of Paris condemned the ruling and urged the police to appeal the ruling.

"Faced by this initiative which stinks of xenophobia, I want once again to express city hall's desire to fight all forms of discrimination, racism and anti-Semitism," mayor Bertrand Delanoe said in a statement.

The food handouts are organized by a nationalist group called Solidarity of the French (SDF). It says its "pig soup," which uses pork fat for stock, is country fare much loved by French traditionalists.

"No-one has ever been able to prove that anyone has been refused soup or clothes on the grounds of their religion or race," SDF lawyer Frederic Pichon told France Info radio after Tuesday's court decision.


And if a poor muslim is in need of clothing, give him a soiled bed sheet that has been donated from the aids ward of the local hospice!

Au contraire, if White people are hungry they will eat what we feed them. The problem is the Semites believing they are better than Whites. A starving person doesn't have a right to dictate what is on the menu.

So just shut up and eat it Muhammad or go without. In fact, they have lots of camel and goat meat back in rag-head land; why don't you go back there, it's where you belong.

Amen to all comments above.
Give the food to the White brethren "hand over fist" especially the unemployed young white males. Food is food. Wrap the pork sandwich in pages of the Quran just to say this is the West! Eat that Pork like everyone else or shut up and leave!!!

It is a waste of White time to think otherwise!

Do the Jews think a soup kitchen is an airline where they can order a kosher meal?
