== Antisemitism ==
The extraordinary horror of Adolf Hitler's pogrom against the Jews called the Holocaust has given the word ''[[antisemitism]]'' a special power. <ref>{{REFweb |url=https://peacefulbeginningsrosemary.wordpress.com/circ-information/anti-semitism-and-opposition/ |title=Anti-Semitism and Opposition |last=Romberg |first=Rosemary |date=2012-04 |accessdate=2022-08-22}}</ref> Even persons who had not even been born at the time of the Holocaust accept guilt for it. When anyone proposes action to protect boys from non-therapeutic [[circumcision]], the Jews cry antisemitism, even though the [[human rights]] and [[physical integrity]] of Jewish boys would be protected. The appellation is so offensive that people, institutions, and governments will go to exceptional lengths to avoid being so labeled.
The Catholic Church has been accused of practicing what many regard as anti-semitism for centuries. The Catholic Church is even charged for doing little to oppose the Holocaust,<ref name="allen1998">{{REFweb
