#Provide legal help to parents who do not allow their sons to be [[circumcised]].
In January 1998, a petition was filed with the [[https://supreme.court.gov.il/sites/en/Pages/home.aspx Israel]] Supreme Court]. The main argument of the petition was that circumcision is a violation of a constitutional human right. The court did not hear the petition in the case and it was rejected after two hearings without arguments. The petition was picked up by the media. Interior Minister Eliyahu Suissa of Shas was interviewed on television and said that the members of the organization should be thrown out the window. Josef Lapid attacked him for this statement on television.
Ben Shalem is a member of the [https://www.icrc.org International Committee of the Red Cross].
