3. Who is banning halal slaughter?
12 Real Reasons Behind Halal Slaughter Bans in Europe (Geopolitical – Economic Analysis)
How was Europe’s “Halal Policy” shaped between 2020 and 2050?
3.1 Why European halal slaughter bans are important
In European countries in the last 10 years:
- Belgium (Flemish Region) → halal slaughter is prohibited.
- Netherlands → de facto ban + strict restrictions
- Denmark → banned
- Sweden → complete ban
- Norway → effectively banned
- Germany → no exceptions — stun required
- Poland → 90% restriction (limited export permits)
- Switzerland → complete ban
- Austria → practically impossible
These prohibitions:
- Economic pressure on Muslim society,
- food addiction,
- cultural erosion
- obstacle to worship
- And it is used as a tool of “covert assimilation”.
Now I will explain the 12 main reasons .
3.2 Reason 1: European Animal Welfare Directive
The EU’s post-2020 policy:
“Each cutting procedure will be performed by stunning beforehand.”
This clause appears to be about “animal welfare,” but in the background:
- lobby of large meat factories,
- the desire to increase cutting speed,
- cost reduction plans,
- policy of eliminating the influence of religious groups
there are.
📌 Objective: To push the religious sector out of the industrial system.
3.3 Reason 2: The Jewish Lobby’s Efforts to Protect ‘Shechita’
Jewish section (Shechita):
- He doesn’t use stun like halal.
- The knife cuts in a single stroke.
- It has a 2,000-year-old tradition.
While halal was banned in Europe, the Jewish community was officially protected:
📌 “Traditional practices of religious minorities shall be preserved”
— EU Article 52/EC 2015
This clearly shows the following:
The ban is against Muslims.
There is an exception for Jews.
3.4 Reason 3: The Strategy of the European Meat Cartel
In Europe, 12 large companies control 87% of the total meat market.
These companies:
- Disturbed by the growth of the halal market.
- They cannot meet halal requirements.
- They want to seize control of halal production.
For this reason:
📌 Ban halal production → Force Muslims to rely on imports → Let corporations control imports.
3.5 Reason 4: Cultural Warfare Under the Mask of “Animal Rights”
EU reports are clear:
“Halal and kosher slaughtering is incompatible with European cultural heritage.”
This is not “animal rights”;
it is a cultural assimilation project.
To destroy the Muslim identity:
- headscarf ban
- Freedom to burn the Quran (!?)
- cutting mosque funds
- prohibition of halal meat
They are being carried out together.
3.6 Reason 5: The Politics of Islamophobia
Halal slaughter for right-wing parties:
- anti-refugee sentiment
- election materials
- populist propaganda
- The “strong Europe, weak Muslim” narrative
It is used as such.
These bans generate political capital.
3.7 Reason 6: The European Academy of Sciences’ Distorted Reports
According to the reports of the EU Scientific Committee:
“Halal slaughter causes suffering to the animal.”
“Stunning is safer.”
But these reports:
- written with deliberate examples
- Muslim scientists were excluded.
- The document from 2012 was found to be incorrect.
- A revision was requested in 2018.
- In 2021, it was admitted that “the data is insufficient.”
However, the bans have not been lifted.
3.8 Reason 7: Europe’s Demographic Concerns
Europe is afraid:
- The Muslim population is growing rapidly.
- 20% of the EU will be Muslim by 2050.
- Halal food is a mark of identity.
- Halal market → community formation
- Community → political power
Well:
📌 Banning what is permissible = breaking the power of the community
3.9 Reason 8: The Rising Power of the Halal Economy
The halal market is now:
- food
- fashion
- tourism
- logistics
- finance
- technology
and became a trillion-dollar giant .
The EU wants to control this.
By banning halal slaughter:
📌 They are trying to take over the “halal certification industry”.
3.10 Reason 9: The Hidden Interest System
When halal slaughter becomes independent:
- Muslim-owned grocery chain is growing.
- Muslims are building their own economy.
- non-interest economic growth is emerging.
This is upsetting the EU’s financial giants.
📌 A halal market means interest-free money flow.
3.11 Reason 10: The Political “Legitimate Power Vacuum”
Türkiye, Malaysia, and Indonesia are strong halal countries.
The EU wants to become the “country that monitors halal.”
Because:
📌 Ban halal slaughter → Only control imports → Make it an EU standard.
3.12 Reason 11: Lab Meat Lobbying
Investment between 2020–2030:
💰 $11 billion
(Bill Gates, Tyson Foods, JBS etc.)
These companies want:
📌 Let’s ban animal slaughter, and let people eat lab-et (a type of meat).
When Muslims resisted this, they targeted halal.
3.13 Reason 12: The “European Identity” Project
European cultural identity laws state the following:
“European values are based on a Christian-Jewish ethical heritage.”
In this context, Islam is defined as an “external element”.
Halal prohibitions are also used within this identity construction.
3.14 Conclusion: Europe’s Halal Ban is Not a Technical Measure, but a Geopolitical Operation
These 12 points show that:
👉 This ban is not about “animal protection.”
👉 This ban is a “political, economic, cultural, and demographic” move.
👉 The goal is to weaken the Muslim community , gain control of the halal market , and
complete cultural assimilation .
The system we present in this project — Besmele Knife Technology + IoT + AI + Blockchain — invalidates
the technical justifications for all these prohibitions .
