My friend, the Eid al-Adha animal sacrifice festival is horrendous…and it is happening in just 48 hours.
In fact, as we speak, millions of cows, goats, sheep, and even camels are en route in a mass caravan. By boats, trucks, and now ‘death trains’, they are crammed into unhygienic and unsafe transport units.
They suffer in the unforgiving sun, often succumbing to severe dehydration and exhaustion.
Their final destination is Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh, and the epicenter of an animal sacrifice that will leave blood flooding the streets.
And despite the current restrictions of the pandemic, nothing is standing in the way of slaughtering these animals… the festival will proceed.
