Circumcision ban worst attack on Jews since Holocaust: Rabbi

European Jewish leaders furiously condemned a German Court's ruling outlawing circumcision as the "worst attack on Jews since the Holocaust" yesterday and demanded that Chancellor Angela Merkel's Government intervene to protect the practice as a religious rite.The damning remarks came amid growing European Jewish and Muslim outrage over a ruling by a Cologne court last month declaring the circumcision of young boys could be considered a criminal offence because it caused bodily harm and infringed a child's right to integrity.

Yesterday, Moscow's Chief Rabbi, Pinchas Goldschmidt, the president of the Conference of European Rabbis, who made the Holocaust comments, added: "I see no future for Jews in Germany if the ruling is upheld".

His remarks followed a strongly worded statement from European Jewish and Muslim community leaders which underlined that circumcision was fundamental to both faiths, and demanded that the German Government intervene to grant the practice legal protection.

  • I hope they ban these fucking Sabbath elevators in the US. Because of some silly jew religious thing, our elevators automatically stop on every floor during sabbath. What a fuckin inconvenience to the rest of us normal people this is. What if there is an emergency? It doesn't matter. They are Jews and because of the holocaust, we have to tolerate this dangerous religious ritual. Maybe not as dangerous as mutilating your child but still another jew annoyance that we cannot say anything about beca More..

  • There must be a reason we're born with it... Every male deserves a say in what's being done to his privates. Let children reach a decision making age and have them decide if they want to have their dk sliced.

Starving of 1 million women and children to death after capitulation after WW1, cutting off Saarland and Elsass-Lothringen from Germany, occupate the Rheinland in the 20ies, mutilating Germans in Danzig by the poles and forcing germany into war, bombing hundred of thousands of civilians in WW2, splitting Germany in half, forcing Germany to let the turks invade them, forc More..
