“Help! I’m asking for the help of the public! I am a mother to a baby.
The Rabbinical Court is forcing me to cut my year old son against my
will (circumcise him) while subjecting me to heavy financial
sanctions daily!
After my exposure to the information regarding circumcision, I refuse
to mutilate my baby. I don’t have the right and I do not agree! He was
born whole and he will stay whole! His integrity is his full right! The
Religious Court has no right to do that! No one in the whole world is
authorized to force me to mutilate my son, to cut his penis!
What kind of a state is this?! What is this? Where do we live? Could
the Religious Court force upon me anything during the divorce? In
particular, religious oppression, unnecessary cutting of the penis of a
helpless baby? A non-reversible surgical operation! A foreskin does
not renew itself!
The baby can not express his own will. The right to decide is his
alone. It is his body! The right, is not mine, nor anyone else’s in the
entire world, but his own only!
I am pleading for help! I love my son very much! I do not want to hurt
him! Please pass this message on to anyone possible so it won’t be a
precedent for future divorce cases in the Rabbinical Court which
authorizes itself to force religious oppression upon a nonreligious
divorcing person! Why does the religious court take advantage of its
monopoly on marriage?! It’s a degrading abuse of power, used for
religious oppression! Religion has to be voluntary from the heart, not
by force and financial penalties!
Where do we live? Where is the supervision? Where is the
government?! I am crying for help! Unfortunately, here, in the state of
Israel!”
