Germany reverting to form

German court rules Jewish parents have no right to circumcise their children.

As opposed to many politicians, the court was not deterred by fears of being criticized for anti-Semitism or hostility toward religion. This decision could not only influence future jurisdiction, it could also lead the relevant religions to change their attitude with respect to the fundamental nature of children’s rights.

–  German jurist Holm Putzke.

There’s a really bad joke there.
