American Medical Group Facilitates Barbaric Practice of 'Female Circumcision'
Publius Forum ^ | 05/19/10 | Warner Todd Huston

The barbaric Muslim practice of mutilating the genitals of little girls apparently is A'OK with the American Academy of Pediatrics, at least just a little bit, anyway. In an act of political correctness gone mad the AAP has announced that it thinks it's a good idea to mollify Muslims and gloss over their barbaric practice by instituting what they are calling a "ritual nick" on little girl's genitals.

It's the veritable camel's nose under the tent flaps. After all, by what logic does one refuse to accept this disgusting attack on womanhood when you agree that any part of the practice is justifiable? Today it will be a "ritual nick," then it becomes a "ceremonial slash," graduating to excuse the removal of some ever growing amount of flesh, and before you know it we have full-blown mutilation of little girls just like many Muslims want.

In the AAP's statement on such mutilation a "concern" over the supposed harm to the culture of these immigrant Muslims is treated as a legitimate worry....

I guess that's better than saying "It's the veritable camel's toe in the door."

So much for that do no harm thing. I submit that abortion was the camels nose under the tent. When you remove respect for human life what is a little child mutilation?

It's defective liberal 'logic'. To wit, Obama has just stated that he's going to entertain 'moderate' members of Hezbollah in order to drive out the extremists. It's a cowardly, twisted form of thinking where they believe they can mollify evil by endorsing a certain 'acceptable' amount of it. Sick.

“There is reason to believe that offering such a compromise may build trust between hospitals and immigrant communities...”

This is beyond belief...if only screaming would help, my gosh.

I know what I would do. Slam a child abuse lawsuit against any medical facility that allowed this.

...As we bend over backwards to be “reasonable” with the unreasonable... My take: Be careful of what you tolerate, lest you come to tolerate the intolerable.
