Absolute Load of BULL >:(
Feb 17^th, 2016 at 6:56pm

Quote:

A third of meals provided to Australian troops will now be halal-certified following a series of new changes.

Ration packs available to servicemen and women in the field will now need to be more diverse, including kosher, vegetarian and halal options, in an order approved by the Deputy Chief of Army Major General Rick Burr.

Four of the 12 of the menu options will be halal-certified.

The changes have been pushed through in order “to meet ADF’s (Australian Defence Force) commitment to providing an inclusive working environment”, The Daily Telegraph reports.

There are less than 100 Muslims serving in the ADF and the decision to spend money on halal rations has angered some of the military’s 60,000 full time and reserve servicemen and women.

Why would it anger them?

They don't sound like the sort of people we want in our military, if they become emotional over such trivial things.
