'''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=https://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> Every now and then, [[intactivists]] are generally assumed to be anti-Semiticantisemitic, because they also engage against [[MGM]] 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 anti-Semitismantisemitism, following the logics. If 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 anti-Semitismantisemitism.
A uniform, generally binding definition of anti-Semitism antisemitism doesn't seem to exist. There are different attempts at a definition. See below for a tiny selection of definitions.
== Definitions of anti-Semitism antisemitism ==
* "Hostility to or prejudice against Jewish people."<ref>{{REFweb

The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Plenum suggested the following working definition of anti-Semitismantisemitism:

== Opposing circumcision on minors isn't anti-Semitic antisemitic ==
Opposing circumcision has nothing to do with anti-Semitism 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 an action: medically unnecessary [[amputation]] of healthy tissue from the 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 intact boy the right to his membership of the Jewish society:

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 circumcisions.
== Anti-Semitism Antisemitism contradiction ===== Conceptual anti-Semitism antisemitism in Judaism ===The German website ''zwangsbeschneidung.de'' sees an "anti-Semitism antisemitism contradiction in the Jewish religion created by [[Circumcision]]":
{{Citation
|Text=Anti-Semitism 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 anti-Semitic antisemitic act.<br>The conclusion is that if circumcision is the foundation of the Jewish religion, the foundation of the Jewish religion is an anti-Semitic antisemitic act.<br>[[German Circumcision Act|§ 1631d BGB]] was created to enable Jewish circumcision. § 1631d BGB is therefore anti-Semitism antisemitism by law. Anti-Semitism Antisemitism by law is fascist legislation.

=== Anti-Semitism Antisemitism among (German) politicians ===The anti-Semitism 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 anti-Semitism antisemitism - which is factually completely false - although they are fundamentally opposed to genital mutilation, this behavior is itself anti-Semiticantisemitic, because such politicians do not consider children of Jewish parents to be worthy of protection (mostly obviously due to the fear of the [[anti-Semitism 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 anti-Semitic 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 '''[https://www.beyondthebris.com/standing-against-antisemitism/ Standing Against Antisemitism]''' statement opposing anti-Semitism [[antisemitism]] within the genital autonomy movement at [[Beyond the Bris]].
