If you’re planning a trip on Nepal Airlines, don’t tell PETA. The animal rights organization is bound to be plenty upset after hearing that Nepal Air has developed an unusual way of tackling some pesky maintenance and mechanical problems. Instead of hiring better mechanics, the airline is sacrificing live animals. Yes, folks in a move with Old Testament overtones, Nepal Air has, according to Reuters News Service, sacrificed two goats to appease the Hindu sky god Akash Bhairab.
The goats were slaughtered in front of the aircraft, but not presumably not in front of the passengers.
Did it work? Something did. Shortly after the goats croaked, airline official Raju K.C., (no relation to the Sunshine Band) said, "The snag in the plane has now been fixed and the aircraft has resumed its flights.”

Is PETA the only organization or group of people that would find this cruel and absurd? I guess the "lunatic left" is the only part of ideological spectrum that finds animal sacrifice to solve real world problems a bit archaic.
what makes PETA "lunatic left" and not "lunatic right"?
what makes PETA lunatic?
