German court rules religious circumcision on boys an assault

[Zanza]

The Ministry of Justice has proposed the following new legislation:

The personal custody of the parents also includes the right to consent to a medically unnecessary circumcision of a male child that can not understand or decide by itself if this circumcision is conducted according to the medical art. If it is against the child's best interest (e.g. medical counterindication), it may not be conducted.

In the first six months of the child's life, a "specially qualified person" (e.g. a Jewish Mohel) may conduct the operation. After that, only physicians are allowed to. Furthermore, anesthesia may be required in individual cases.

Sounds reasonable.

One step closer to Eurabia.

I'm sure that idiots will still rage hard against circumcision.  And just the fact that the US exists is enough to anger them anyways.

Anyone know why South Koreans cut their kids? They don't strike me as tribal.

[Barrister]

USAian influence from the Korean war?  Influence of modern Christianity?

It's only South Korea, so I'm guessing American influence.

Yeah, it's telling that in Europe, the stronghold of this practice is the Former Yugoslavia.

Telling that Europeans brutally murdered most of the people who practiced it.  But we are the uncivilzed and nutty ones

The "stronghold" in former Yugoslavia is probably Bosnian Muslims - another group Europeans have attempted to exterminate, albeit more recently.
