Forgive my ignorance Livia but arent the kosher slaughter rules very similar to Halal slaughter?
I really am not sure of the differences.
But i do know its not good to leave the blood in everybody agrees with that.

edit: DanaC i felt a little harsh with my comments as far as you were concerned your points were very valid a few posts above yours werent.
