Default Palestinians Kill Endangered Turtle

Rare turtle slaughtered in Gaza | Video | Reuters.com

Palestinian fishermen catch and kill a giant sea turtle, thought to be a Leatherback, an endangered species.

The rare giant sea turtle caught on a beach near Gaza City was slaughtered and eaten by Palestinian fishermen who said its blood was an aphrodisiac, among other therapeutic qualities. A Reuters cameraman said the fishermen collected the giant turtle's blood and gave it to children suffering from trauma and adults with back problems.

The Palestinians believing turtle blood will help ailments is about as accurate as the believe in Thailand that unprotected sex with a virgin will cure AIDS

Some africans think the same thing. Sad.

Personally, I think they know its BS just a conveniant excuse to have sex with a young girl.

Ahh, yes-when all else fails make accusations of racism. Nothing so espouses tolerance as accusing others of intolerance in spite of any real evidence to support it.

On that same note, this is quite the conundrum for a jew hating animal lover. The antisemitic branch of PETA is in a real pickle over this.
