Israeli Troops Raid Zoo in Gaza
2004-05-21
EFL
A headless ostrich, dead chickens and a peacock littered the ground at a zoo Friday after Israeli troops raided a Gaza neighborhood. The zoo’s owner said soldiers demolished cages and pens, killing some animals and setting dozens more free.
Practicing for the Fish’s compound.

Same thing as last night, only with slightly different spin...

#12  AC-Our other dog is Lili - 6 yr old poodle with the soul of a Rottweiler, with a taste for raw sirloin. Obviously not into animal rights, she is happy to aid our cat, Martin, in destroying all lizzard nests in the yard!

#11  Well, Mucky, my own animal companion, Roswell the Atomic Poodle, apparently disagrees about animal rights.
He doesn't say so, obviously, but he fancies himself the very Nimrod of poodle-dom. Specifically, he is fond of chasing, and sometimes gleefully killing, the local ground squirrels and other furry pests animal friends.
Underneath his peach curls, he is still a predatory beast, after all, and a truly ruthless killer. He only weighs 7 pounds himself, but he might as well be T-Rex itself if you are unfortunate enough to have been born with squirrel or mouse DNA.
He has long since wiped out the squirrel colony that used to inhabit our property; females, infants and all. In the minds of some, this is possibly akin to genocide (or is that pesticide?) but others refer to it as "nature."
He is a little slow now at age 13, but he still picks off the occasional straggler or scout from neighboring colonies.

#10  Can you imagine how the Stepford sister networks would cover this and how the left would react if our GI's were involved in this operation some how. I can see the drunk from Mass now '..this is an outrqage perpetrated all the way up the chain of command to the President. This zoo massacre was conceived by Bush in Texas back in January along with Cheney's guidance. An immediate investigation should be called".

#3  Oh-oh, ". . . a tiger. . .unaccounted for."

Can you hear the headline in the next fdew days. "The escaped tiger just ate my four chickens. The Tiger has to be a spy for Masaad!"

Sam - A pony, several dogs, and a few dozen parrots were among the survivors.
Probably included some pups, but I can find nothing about baby ducks.

#2  Oooh, those Zionists! They are invading upon the revelation of the glory of Allah, Most Merciful, Oft-Forgiving, All-Powerful, Peace Be Bestowed by Him! Those animals were simply living their lives, slowly learning the Truth of Allah, Most Merciful, Oft-Forgiving, All-Powerful, Peace Be Bestowed by Him, and the Zionist infidels have destroyed the chances of them realizing the truth! We of the Religion of Peace decry this outrageous and obvious Zionist attempt to sabotage Islam by eliminating or converting the harmless little animals of this harmless little zoo!
