Is Baby Circumcision Genital Mutilation?


Foreskin man is causing outrage in parts of the United States this morning, and while I have no problem with religious practices per se, I would object to a female spokeswoman telling the world what can be done with my foreskin before I was able to speak up for myself. 

I've sometimes wondered if the 'unshakable bond' between the United States and Israel had something to do with the semi-automatic circumcision in both countries but if anyone can illuminate me on the matter I'm open to learning.

Lucas Koerner - Secondly It Is Violently Opposed

So few Israelis speak up for the truth one would think it's post Weimar Germany with neighbours being wheeled off to the concentration camps to keep them quiet. The silence from Jews around the world is unconscionable and so I applaud young men like Luke who get out of the comfort zone and stand up for basic human values. His arrest gets rougher towards the end of the video clip.
