HILARIOUS (& Sad): New Age Chick Wants Camel Milk Dairy (to Feed Somalian Muslims in U.S.)
By Debbie Schlussel
The story of Millie Hinkle’s quest to start a dromedary dairy (camel milk diary) is a hilarious and sad comment–on so many levels–of the sad state of affairs in our country.
It’s got everything: a nutty new age Southerner who wants to pander to Muslims by importing their backward ways and cuisine, and tens of thousands of extremist Muslims who’ve invaded America and you wonder how many are here legally (and which boneheaded bureaucrats let them in).
Here are the important–and very entertaining–parts of the story. (In the past, I’ve written about uncivilized Middle-Eastern Muslim delicacies like camel milk ice cream. I’m just glad it, and the camel milk itself, aren’t kosher. Blechhhhh.)
As you read this, ask yourself, which would be more profitable for Millie–a camel milk dairy for Somalian Muslims . . . or a one-way ticket travel agency for Somalian Muslims, like Shirwa Ahmed, headed back home to do their terrorist biz? That’s not to mention the 20 or so Somalian Muslims that were just indicted for Al-Qaeda activity.
RALEIGH, N.C. — Millie Hinkle first tasted camel milk in the United Arab Emirates about 10 years ago. She had no idea the salty drink, still warm from the camel and served in an ornate bowl with a side of walnuts, would become an obsession.
“It has taken over my life,” said the 57-year-old practitioner of natural medicine as she cruised down a tree-lined road here in her white SUV emblazoned with a camel.
Ms. Hinkle has drained her savings, slashed the number of hours she spends at her day job and started a company called Camel Milk USA. Her goal is to bring the milk, reputed to have healing and aphrodisiac powers, to the U.S. where it’s been hard to get mainly because camels weren’t listed in rules governing the sale of milk.
In April, Ms. Hinkle won initial approval from the National Conference on Interstate Milk Shipments, a nonprofit group, to market the milk. Now, she’s awaiting approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration on some final details.
But there are several humps to overcome before camel milk is widely available in the U.S. . . . Camels don’t much like to be milked. Camels can be cantankerous and persuading them to give up their milk can be part chore, part art.
Where is PETA when you need them?
Camel milk is a centuries-old staple for nomadic tribes across the Middle East and Africa. It is also drunk by elderly men to enhance virility; by the sick to treat a variety of ailments; and by those who believe it has magical properties.
Translation: The Middle East has no shortage of Junk “Science” (and want for Viagra). That’s not news, if you’ve been paying attention to decades of terrorist attacks, conspiracy theories, and uber-paranoia emanating from that region. Take it from an evil Zionist from the great Satan America (me).
Like I said, it isn’t kosher, and I haven’t tried it. But I’d bet there ain’t nothin’ “licious” about camels or their milk.
In a 2006 report, the United Nations recommended camel milk as an area for Middle East economic development, saying that $10 billion in global sales “would be entirely within the realm of possibility.”
Yeah, that’s the ticket: Once we wean ourselves off of oil, let’s help give our Middle Eastern buddies another revenue source to fund their terrorist attacks on us. Typical U.N stuff.
Here’s the money quote about this airhead:
Ms. Hinkle, who dons flowing white pantsuits and dangly gold earrings, sometimes tears up when talking about her quest. “I have to try to do what I can to help the most people,” she said. “And for me this is it.”
She said she was interested in becoming a physician as a young woman, but after being “poisoned” by lawn pesticides decided instead to study natural medicine. She opened her own clinic about 20 years ago in Raleigh, called Natural Health Resource Center. Here, from a second-floor office, she says she fields emails and calls from people who want camel milk as a health remedy and immigrants who crave the drink.
She gets a phone call almost every week from Abdirizak Mohamuod, a Somalian man in Minnesota who sells dried fruits and ethnic food. He says he has at least 70,000 Somalian customers in Minnesota who would buy it. “We would like to get the milk as soon as possible,” he said.
Um, yeah, how many of these 70,000 Somalian Muslims in Minnesota are here legally? And why are they here even if they are here legally? Do we have such a shortage of homegrown Somalian Muslims imposing their Islamic/sharia will on Target (where they refused to ring up pepperoni pizza), kidnapping, gang-raping, and forced-prostituting women, shooting up neighborhoods, and radicalizing each other to the point they fly home (like Shirwa Ahmed and the 20 Al-Qaeda indictees) to become homicide bombers?
Her drive sent her before the National Conference on Interstate Milk Shipments, a nonprofit, industry-backed group formed in 1946 that oversees drafting of certain regulations that are then sent for FDA approval. She put together a proposal asking for camels to be included under the milk rules. The FDA recently gave tentative approval to cover camels, as well as reindeer, llamas, moose and donkeys under the rules.
Ah, donkey and llama milk–that’s what America is missing!!
An FDA spokesman said, “We wanted to improve the science basis in the definition” of milk coming from hooved mammals to include “species that may not have ‘true hooves,'” such as camels.
True hooves or not, looks like somebody–all these multi-cultural New Age idiots–needs a kick in the face.
Get a clue, America. If we make it easier and more comfortable for extremist Muslims who embrace violence and terrorism to live here, they’ll keep coming in droves.
Do we really want our country to be so backward that it’s “just like home”?
This camel milk thing is just the latest data point–the latest symbol–on the journey toward exactly that.
“They’ll keep comming in droves”
Our government under the Bush “The War on Terror” imported these people here. 70,000 Somalians didn’t come here via the Rio Grande, or by raft out of the ocean, or simply through osmosis, they were delivered onto our shores, and neighborhoods courtesy of the US governmnet. They didn’t even have to purchase the plane ticket to get here.
The pathetic thing about this is, there is still a debate about all the illegal migrant workers from Mexico and how they should or should not be allowed in this country. What’s the point in a discussion about Mexican’s when our government imports by the thousands Muslims from every corner of the globe?
I also love the fact that now MN has such a large population of those peace loving Muslims from Somalia they also now have a HUGE gang problem there from the same self loving trash we brought over here on the tax payers dime.
To top off the absurd, now we have to import camels as well. Why is it that every third world backwater s-ithole on the face of the planet believe that the most vile and disgusting thing one can consume will give the male member of said society a better hardon?
Makes me wonder what Obama has got growing in his garden there at the white house.
