'''Antisemitism''' (also spelled '''anti-semitism''' or '''anti-Semitism''') is hostility to, prejudice towards, or discrimination against Jews.<ref>{{URLwikipedia|Antisemitism|Antisemitism|2022-05-17}}</ref><ref name="Oxford">{{REFweb |url= What is Antihttps://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/us/anti-semitism |title=anti-Semitism |website=Oxford Dictionaries - English |accessdate=2018-10-27}}</ref><ref name="MWdef">{{REFweb |url=https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/anti-Semitism |title=anti-Semitism? |publisher=Merriam-Webster Dictionary |accessdate=2018-10-27}}</ref>

Let this Every now and then, [[intactivists]] are generally assumed to be answered by antisemitic, because they also engage against [[Volker BeckMGM]] who published on boys of Jewish parents. These allegations are generally unfounded, if only because the deliberate exclusion of the boys of Jewish parents in legal questions would be a group-specific special treatment, which in turn would have to be regarded as antisemitism, following on his blog on [http://beckstagethe logics.volkerbeckIf intactivists were to protect all children from genital mutilation that was not medically indicated, but omit the children of Jewish parents, they would have to be accused of antisemitism.de/2012/04/13/grass/#more-510 April 13, 2012]:

Today the most common form of anti-Semitism is anti-Zionism== History ==Antisemitism has existed for at least 2, which is defined by Pfahl-Traughber as follows:500 years.

<blockquote>''Anti-ZionismNotably, that is the "refusal Book of Esther reports the right to exist case of Haman the State of Israel, i.e. the negation of the claim of Jewish national self-determination. Consciously or unconsciously, this position is tantamount Agagite who wanted to the cancellation of a secure refuge for the slay all Jews and a related persecution. As a more attenuated variant of anti-zionism, the flat-rate "condemnation" of Israel as a negative force can apply, which need not necessarily be connected to the already seemingly unrealistic demand for abolution of the state existance. Thus, the state of the Jews is blamed being allegedly the sole entity responsible for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, often using defamatory historical equates with the German national socialism. On the basis of rigorous advertising out in two forms to hostility to the Jews and the State of Israel, sometimes a latent anti-semitism can be found behind such views of anti-Zionism. However, you cannot make lump equation of anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism."''

==AntiThe Spanish Inquisition (1478-Semitism contradiction==1834) required Jews to either convert to Roman Catholicism or leave Spain.<ref>{{URLwikipedia|Spanish_Inquisition|Spanish Inquisition|2024-02-16}}</ref>

Germany, under the Nazi regime (1933-1945), instituted the greatest pogrom of all time against its Jewish citizens, resulting in the death of 6,000,000 Jews.<ref>{{URLwikipedia|The_Holocaust|The German website Holocaust|2024-02-16}}</ref>  These acts of antisemitism were not caused by the [[intactivist]] movement. It is a fallacy to associate antisemitism with [[intactivism]]. == Opposing circumcision on minors isn't antisemitic ==The United Nations was charged with the development of international human rights law at its conception in 1945. A fundamental, important principal of human rights law is the universality of human rights. That means that everyone without exception, including male and female, young and old, Jew and gentile, enjoy the same [[human rights]]. ''Security of the person''zwangsbeschneidungis one of the most fundamental of human rights.de<ref>{{REFdocument |url=https://treaties.un.org/doc/Treaties/1976/03/19760323%2006-17%20AM/Ch_IV_04.pdf |title=International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (official document) |publisher=United Nations |date=1967 |format=PDF |accessdate=2024-02-06}}</ref> It is universal and applies to everyone without exception. The [[Abrahamic covenant]] requires that the human right of boys born into Jewish homes to ''security of the person' sees ' be violated. [[Brit Milah| Circumcision]] of a boy born into a Jewish home, therefore, is an "anti-Semitism contradiction in antisemitic act.<ref>Circumcision actually is an amputation of substantial amounts of functional, erogenous, protective [[foreskin]] tissue from the [[penis]], so it is a major violation of the security of the person.</ref> Opposing [[circumcision]] has nothing to do with antisemitism which is defined as being or acting against Jews because they are Jews, not because they do this or that. Opposition to [[circumcision]] is opposing a harmful action: medically unnecessary [[amputation]] of healthy, functional tissue from the Jewish religion created genitals of non consenting minors, completely independent of parental beliefs. According to a White Paper published by the Danish Mosaic Religious Society, no Jew will deny an [[Circumcisionintact]]"boy the right to his membership of the Jewish society:

| Text=Anti-Semitism is definitely the violation of the human rights of You are born a Jew because he is if you are born to a Jewish mother. In principle, there are no Jewish dogma, which means, among other things, that one cannot "deprive" a Jew, circumcision of the male child is his identity as a violation of human rightsJew. There are Jews who do not abide by Jewish rules in any form whatsoever, Jewish and others who have cherry-picked among those rules and only adhere to the rules they want. This also applies to circumcision . It might be said this way: <q>For most Jews it is done because the child crucial to be circumcised, but it is not essential to be circumcised to be a Jew.</q> |Author=Danish Mosaic Religious Society |Source=White Paper: om rituel omskærelse af drenge, page 14 |ref=<ref>{{REFdocument |title=White Paper: om rituel omskærelse af drenge |url=https://www.ft.dk/samling/20111/almdel/suu/bilag/422/1147879.pdf |publisher=mosaiske.dk |format=PDF |date=2012 |accessdate=2020-03-14}}</ref>}} If this statement is true, and there are no reasons to doubt it, so Jewish circumcision males, for whom it is an anti-Semitic actvital to be [[circumcised]], can be circumcised as they turn of age, and they will still be valid members of the Jewish community. Furthermore:In 2007, the [[WHO]] found that 30% of the world’s male population were [[circumcised]]. Those 30% were distributed like this* 69% Muslims* 0.8% Jews* 13% North Americans* 17.2% Others

Following these numbers, male Jews who are [[circumcised]] make up at most 0.8 % of the world's [[circumcised]] men (i.e. eight per thousand).<ref>{{REFweb |title=Male circumcision: global trends and determinants of prevalence, safety and acceptability |url=https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/43749/9789241596169_eng.pdf |publisher=[[WHO]] |date=2007 |page=7 |format=PDF |accessdate=2020-03-14}}</ref> Therefore, it is totally improper to claim that opposing [[circumcision]] is an expression of antisemitism or neo-Nazism. Opposition to non-medical [[circumcision]] of minors as a parental right is directed against the act regardless of the parents' religious affiliation, and not just against the at most 0.8% Jewish [[Brit Milah| circumcisions]]. == Antisemitism contradiction ===== Conceptual antisemitism in Judaism ===The German website ''zwangsbeschneidung.de'' sees an "antisemitism contradiction in the Jewish religion created by [[Circumcision]]":{{Citation |Text=Antisemitism is definitely the violation of the [[human rights]] of a Jew because he is a Jew, circumcision of the male child is a violation of [[human rights]], Jewish circumcision is done because the child is a Jew, so Jewish circumcision is an antisemitic act.<br>The conclusion is that if circumcision is the foundation of the Jewish religion, the foundation of the Jewish religion is an antisemitic act.<br>[[German Circumcision Act|§ 1631d BGB]] was created to enable Jewish circumcision. § 1631d BGB is therefore antisemitism by law. Antisemitism by law is fascist legislation. |Author=N.N. |Source=www.zwangsbeschneidung.de |ref=<ref>{{REFweb |url=https://www.zwangsbeschneidung.de/presse-2016.html#beschneidung-antisemitismuswiderspruch-judentum |title=Der durch die Beschneidung erzeugte Antisemitismuswiderspruch in der jüdischen Religion |trans-title=Anti-Semitism Generated by Circumcision Contradiction in the Jewish Religion |language=German |date=2016 |accessdate=2022-02-15}}</ref>}} === Antisemitism among (German) politicians ===The antisemitism contradiction can not only be found in the religion itself, but also in the actions of German politicians in particular. If they e.g. deny the own human and fundamental rights of children of Jewish parents, out of fear of being accused of antisemitism - which is factually completely false - although they are fundamentally opposed to genital mutilation, this behavior is itself antisemitic, because such politicians do not consider children of Jewish parents to be worthy of protection (mostly obviously due to the fear of the [[Antisemitism club]]). This attitude is often justified by the believe that Germans would have no right to judge Jewish culture and tradition because of their German history, which further reinforces the antisemitic exclusion of children of Jewish parents from the all-encompassing understanding of [[human rights]] and makes such statements even worse. In addition, genital mutilation in children that is not medically indicated is played down and justified here as "culture" and "tradition", which also proves double standards, since no German politician is known who would also describe [[FGM]] in this way. == Note on IntactiWiki's own behalf =='''NO ANTISEMITISM:''' IntactiWiki has signed the '''[[Standing Against Antisemitism]]''' statement opposing [[antisemitism]] within the genital autonomy movement at [[Beyond the Bris]]. {{SEEALSO}}* [[Beyond the Bris]]* [[Antisemitism club]]* [[Issues with male circumcision and the Roman Catholic Church]]* [[Judaism]] {{LINKS}}* Rothenberg M.
