^^^ What's up with these Saudis? The Malaysians have made it clear that there was no pork DNA in those chocolate bars. This is a very bad precedent. Now anyone can blame and spread rumors about their (better performing) competitors that they are not halal-compliant (without any proof) and can get away with it.

Well, this is Politics and Society sub-forum of "Other". Religion is, by and large, politics. Besides, what is discussed here is not religion per se, it's human stupidity of hanging on to outdated superstitions.
There is a continuation to this story, so, Balthazar, it's not really trolling from you
‘Cadbury jihad’ in Malaysia puts choc bars on pork test in S. Arabia

Honestly, all humans have traces of pork in them - we have probably about 90% of common genome. Should all good Muslims commit suicide now?

The pig DNA probably came from the gelatin, which is used as a galling agent and added in small quantities to chocolates. But I don't understand the need to make so much of a fuss about it. Eating the pig-derived gelatin is not the same as eating pork.

goog to know what jihad means :
Jihad is just an arabic word that means resistance,rebellion and/or protest.We have many kinds of jihad that include Jihad-bil-nafs that is resistance against our ego inside us another one is Jihad-bil-ilm that is to fight and strive for getting education or educating others(not by force of course) another one we have is jihad-bil-maal that is to fight against the lust of wealth and provide and stand for the poor.

Technically all Muslims and Humans in general are part pig if you count part pig as atoms that were part of a pig during their lifetime.
Circle of life, bitch!
Circle of life, bitch!
So by that definition you can eat shit and drink urine since they are part of humans, right? Don't take me wrong here I'm not insulting you or anything just want to show you the major flaw in your logic here

I was referring specifically to the Cadbury "incident".
Your silence when Muslims are victims of hate crimes and threats of violence is deafening. Why is that?

1. I am against hate crimes and violence.
2. The Cadbury incident does not classify as any of the above. If anyone is a victim of a hate crime, it is the Cadbury's company and its employees.

Will point out the obvious - Jihad means "struggle" not some sort of violent holy war. All Muslims are involved in numerous Jihads, by definition.
The only threats of violence seem to be directed at Muslims - with EDL supporters calling to "Burn all the rag heads" - God bless the EDL. Or Allah bless the EDL, that would probably irritate them more.

All those acts accomplish is making Muslims look more violent and barbaric to the west. Surely on some level these thugs realize this?

Yes... definitely. The London beheading was a prime example.

I am more worried about all the palm oil that gets stuffed into products. I've already stopped buying quite a lot of items, and the list is growing.
Why?
Just a small selection:

I use palm oil and coconut oil every day in large amounts. My blood lipid panels are off the chart good. Tropical oils are some of the best fats for your body.

Anyway, UMNO's mishandling of that incident was one of the many reason why the lost the Malay support in Selangor(urban Malays,which care didn't for the UMNO's racial politics) and why they are currently being rejected in Selangor.
It is good to hear that the urban Malays are more progressive when compared to those living in the rural regions. But in democracy, the latter will be definitely having a stronger voice, thanks to their numerical superiority.

false advertisement, bad business practice, obviously this company need to be shut down, if you advertise a product as Hallal or Vegetarian or Bio or what ever and you make people pay premium for it, and then you are found guilty there is no other definition to it, this kind of practice can result in death if someone has some allergic to something and he carefully buys a product that is advertised as free of the substance in question ....

Malaysian Muslims declare jihad on Cadbury over pork-laced chocolate
Enraged Muslims in Malaysia have called for a holy war or Jihad to be waged on Cadbury after traces of pig DNA were picked up in their chocolates. As a result of the complaint, the company has pulled two of its products from Malaysian shop shelves.

I don't know whether I can trust Wikipedia in this matter or not, as Wikipedia is a bad source for politics-related topics. Here is one example from Wikipedia, for the stories which I have mentioned:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cow_head_protests
Unfortunately every single thing in that page is true.What the article didn't mention was they were universally slammed by the general public (by even by most Malays) about their shameful behaviour,they were lambasted by every single media and news outlet save for two UMNO controlled ultranationalist newspaper/television station.When confronted, they claimed that they were ignorant on the significance of cows to the Hindus.Yes, those yahoos rather be called stupid (which everyone did) instead of being bigots(which they still are).
Anyway, UMNO's mishandling of that incident was one of the many reason why the lost the Malay support in Selangor(urban Malays,which care didn't for the UMNO's racial politics) and why they are currently being rejected in Selangor.
BTW, the reason why the police didn't unleash their dogs(figuratively speaking)was because the protest was relatively peaceful(no matter how abhorrent it was) while the HINDRAF(which really was pushing their luck, the methods were getting progressively unnerving and subversive) rallies weren't(there were claims that agitators were implanted to provoke conflict, something both side accused the other of doing).
