The Bris and Pedophilia

sjc · Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2007 8:39 am Post subject: The Bris and Pedophilia

Here's something that I had come across quite by accident the other night while watching TV. They were describing the tradition of how the Bris was performed by certain Haredi and Hasidic circles of Judaism. What caught my ear was the practice of Metzitzah b'peh ("suction by mouth") which is the process of using suction to remove blood from the circumcision site which is preformed by the mohel (a Jewish ritual circumciser) after he sanitizes his mouth with alcohol.

The foundation for the ritual of metzitzah is found in Mishnah Shabbat 19:2, which lists metzitzah as one of the four steps involved in the circumcision rite.

It is bad enough that this form of ritualistic mutilation is performed on a non-consenting infant, but to dull the pain inflicted they also get the infant drunk and afterward perform oral sex on them. Tradition without truth is but an old error.

To be fair I went and looked up circumcision as practiced by Muslims as well. Here is a link about Muslim circumcision and it doesn't have a similar rite either, but they do make the child's penis erect by stimulating it. It is still just as barbaric anyways.

The only situation I've seen were circumcision is necessary is for something like my second oldest brother went through. At born his foreskin was sealed at the top so they had to remove it to allow him to pee, otherwise circumcision is totally unnecessary.

It is copyrighted material. Google, youtube, and dailymotion often purge it. Which means I have to find someone who uploaded it at a hosted link, which is rare, but not impossible.

If you have EMule, you can download them from http://sharethefiles.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25782

All 5 seasons are there.

If anyone is interested, I would copy them back on to my HD to guarantee you have a source (I am constantly having to transfer stuff to DVD to make room for more. The hazards of only having a 150g HD[50G free right now])
