[Avodah] kashrus of milk

[Elliott Shevin]

I've been called on the cynicism of my post, and must apologize for shooting from the hip. My reaction stems from the fact that AFAIK, cows here in the U.S. used for cholov Yisrael and other milk are one and the same. The original post raises several questions for me. 
 
Does the pronouncement apply only to Israel, or is it global? 
 
Are the veterinary practices referred to occur in EY only, or are they common worldwide? 
 
Is the pronouncement alleging that the practices it refers to render a cow insufficiently viable 
to be kosher?
 
The right set of answers might mean there's no cholov Yisrael (even de jure) outside EY. Elly
