The red is blood...and you can see the cows in the back ground waiting for their death.
Yes, this is hanging cow, freshly slaughtered.
So in Islam, they celebrate the angel coming to stop Abraham from killing Isaac. They do this by sacrificing cows and lambs in the streets, then eating it. I saw little girls this morning carrying bags of meat to their family members...Nothing like giving dead animal to someone you love!
I can't be completely sarcastic, although I do find it disgusting and barbaric. A lot of the meat is also given to the poor, so there are good intentions behind all the killing. But aren't there supposively good intentions behind war too?

Oh, this post gave me a good chuckle. Not because the cows and lambs were slaughtered (very tragic) but because I can't get the image of you witnessing it out of my head. Quite the cultural adventure you're on...
