But from the reactions to our slogan it's clear that the accusation of harming a child unnecessarily, is received with shame. Therefore the newspaper article made me understand that our slogan does its job. It makes defenders of circumcision feel shameful which they should.

But not only parents and circumcisers. Also countries that make circumcision of boys legal. Like for instance [[Denmark]] and Germany and the rest of the world should feel shameful. Even the United Nations must be blamed. Although UN has a document, the '''Convention of the Rights of the Child'', whose aim clearly is to protect children from unnecessary violence and harm, UN has not been willing to accept the logic of their own convention which is that this goes for all children, not only girls. Instead UN talks evasively and don't want to address the issue directly.

This is the greatest shame - that international [[human rights]] organizations do not draw the consequences of their own resolutions and that states, that have subscribed to the convention, don't follow up by action.
