Swift agrees to Muslims demands for prayer times

OneNewsNow - The founder of a messianic Jewish ministry says it’s outrageous that a meatpacking company has caved to the demands of Muslims who wanted to take breaks to coincide with an Islamic religious period.
Earlier this week 300 Muslims walked off the job at a JBS Swift & Company meatpacking facility in Grand Island, Nebraska, and marched on city hall, complaining that they were denied time to pray at sunset during their month of Ramadan. But two days later the union announced that the company agreed to accommodate the Muslims’ demands.
On Wednesday the president of the local United Food and Commercial Workers Union said management at the Nebraska plant had agreed to temporarily change the timing of the second-shift lunch break to accommodate workers wanting time to pray at sunset during the Muslim observance of Ramadan. The company says the arrangement will be in effect for the remainder of Ramadan — through the end of this month.
Jan Markell, founder and director of Minnesota-based Olive Tree Ministries, says this is not the first time Muslims have foisted their religious demands on private companies.

Swift agrees to Muslims demands for prayer times
Get ready for it America, it’s coming just as sure as you are reading this. Islam has made some serious inroads regarding their consumption of America, the Islamic hordes are preparing to take this nation, and this is the 1st move we’ll see, their demands for prayer times, times that don’t conform to American work standards. They want times that conform to the teachings of a false prophet, an individual that was a pedophile and a practitioner of bestiality.
Great Britain has succumbed to Sharia Law, Revealed: UK’s first official sharia courts and we are next on their list folks. The religious freedom that the Muslims seek here in America is nothing more than the 1st attacks on OUR way of life. Muslims, and ALL that practice this cult of hatred will NOT even begin to attempt to conform to the American way of life. Instead they demand, they DEMAND that America conform to them.
“We have had a little bit of this experience in my home state of Minnesota, [at] the Hormel plant in Austin…,” she shares. “The exact same problem took place down there. And not only that, this is going on all over the country. This is not localized to just one or two or three meatpacking plants.” In fact, a similar incident happened recently at a Swift plant in Greeley, Colorado.
We are seeing it more and more. American businesses are giving in to the demands of these people. 300 of them walked off the job? Great, here is the perfect opportunity to hold an open job fair and hire Christian or Jewish Americans that are in need of jobs.
Recently a Tyson plant in Shelbyville, Tennessee gave in to Muslim demands for a holiday observance, Tyson drops Labor Day holiday for Eid al-Fitr.
Where does this end? At what point do WE draw a line and say NO MORE? If these members of the fanatic cult known as Islam aren’t stopped, and stopped soon, America will succumb to Sharia rule as well. The time to fight is NOW, if we wait until the courts, Congress, the Senate and yes, even the White House are taken over by the Islamic hordes, then it is too late, we are lost forever, and the America that once was will never be again.
Islam, and it’s worshipers, have NO business in this nation. Yes, I know, we are a nation of tolerance, and we believe in freedom of religion, but there is NO religious organization in this nation today that dictates these terms, Submit or Die, none other than Islam. I can’t speak for all, but when I am threatened in such a way, I take that as a call to arms in defense of my family, the Christian faith and this nation.
In MY opinion, anyone that doesn’t see it that way needs to be expelled from American soil, along with the Islamic cults that have declared war on the American people.

Time to boycott these bastards….and send the Islamics “Packing” {pun intended}
Preaching to the choir Fred. This is going on in many businesses across the US. Look at the Somali cab drivers, alcohol, pets. Look at the prayers in airports. Look at colleges and foot bathes. On and on.
Slowly but surely the US is going the way of the UK and others.
I cry when I think about it.
We’ve got a President who attends the Iftar dinners, praises Muslims, says Islam is peaceful. Bend over and get screwed for them, that’s what he and others do.
We have Obama who is if nothing else a Muslim sympathizer, funded by Palestine groups illegally.
We have Keith Ellison the first, but not the only one and certainly not the last one in Congress.
Where can this go but downhill.
I read where Sharia Banking will soon be part (or should I say a bigger part) of US finances since our own institutions are falling apart.
God help us.
Everything is coming together for TPTB (the powers that be). Their 100+ year quest for world domination is on the verge of happening…guess all of us “conspiracy theorists” will be rounded up first..oh, well..so be it!
Bout time for “give me liberty, or give me death”….sigh
Surely they’re not handling PORK at that meat packing plant!? Sorry… but that’s the first thing that popped into what passes for my mind theses days.
Got a little tidbit on my Morning Coffee this morning about a PUBLIC school allowing MUSLIM students prayer time. My question: Do the Christians get prayer time too?
We need to start hitting companies that do this right in the wallet. If enough people start letting them know that they are going to loose a TON of business, maybe we can start putting an end to this nonsense.
Years ago, a locally-owned video store in my neck of the woods put a sign in the window basically saying that concealed weapons were not allowed on the premises.
I called every gun owner I know and we proceeded to flood the store owner with phone calls as to why we wouldn’t do business with him. After a few days of this he took the sign down. THEN we deluged him with calls again saying we STILL weren’t coming in because he had the nerve to put up the sign to begin with. A few days later he put an ad in the local paper apologizing for putting the sign up.
If we could think of a way to do something along those lines on a national scale, any business that is even thinking about doing something like this will sit up and take notice.
You can contact Swift at:

Just tell them you will not buy their products and tell others not to buy their products. Boycotting is so rewarding. They will and can go under, and we get our message to them across.
As for the prayers in the public school, a group of Christian parents should get together and sue for equal rights. If the Muslims get to pray, the Christians get to pray.
First things I’d care to point out:
1. When Muslims are “victims,” they are specifically labeled as Muslims.
2. When Muslims are “suspects,” they are specifically labeled as “youth” or other euphemisms, as in the continuous car burnings in France.
Plus: SWIFT? Don’t they package PORK amongst other meats?
Well, as a matter of fact, yes, Swift DOES produce pork. What do you surmise might happen NEXT for Swift? Held hostage to remove pork from their product list? And further, aren’t those TRUE Muslims going straight to HELL for even HANDLING pork?
An excellent post and thanks for letting the blogworld know about this massive disparity. Where the UK is already a fallen power and subject to naught but ridicule, but for a few folks like me, you and those on the Right, the US is primed to follow in footsteps.

The libtards say we cannot “offend” them in order to prevent more terror attacks. I rather die than live like that.
It seems to me that (MOST) liberals have lost their minds and cannot even use their brains for anything but ways to appose
We The People!
As for the Swift meat packing Co. & other companies, caving in to the demands of muslims…I have been reading about the Airports and Colleges putting in foot baths, etc.
We The American Christian people need to get to praying and then put feet to our prayers by being proactive. We must draw the line in the sand!
And another thought, We had better hope that Obama DOES NOT GET IN THE WHITE HOUSE!
God help us if he does,
When the rag finally comes off the bush in this country its gonna get real ugly real quick and make the War Between the States look like a Sunday social.
Boycott, boycott!! The move is on!! After reading that the UK has caved to the sharia court, I was appalled!! Heard that Detroit has something similar in the works!!!
There’s an old saying, “If you want to really hurt someone, go after there money”. One would have the guess, is that what is happening here?
Bin Laden said that he would crush our economy, is he doing what he said he would and are we allowing it to take place?
Muslims are multiplying at an unbelievable rate here in the USA. Since 911 they are everywhere, more than I have ever seen. In our schools, our factories, and now even in our Government. A man with ties to Islam may just be elected President.
They are now starting to make their move into the American way of life and no one in our Government seems to be willing to do what needs to be done.
A prayer room here, a foot bath there, a demand here, a demand there. Arab companies and families buying up every part of America they can get their hands on and all while we, everyday Americans set and watch.
It is truly a sad situation for us that love our country so much.
Not once have I heard any one ask McCain, Palin, Obama, or Biden what their plans are on dealing with this intrusion into our society.
Yes, I am ashamed of my Government for allowing this to take place. Please remind me once again why our troops are dying?
