    In a statement sent to the press, Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director, wrote that the cartoon was an “appalling distortion of a core Jewish ritual.”

    The cartoon, published in Tuesday’s paper, shows a child being cut to pieces, while his mother stands beside him holding a blood-drenched spanner. The mother tells two police officers: “Abuse? No, it’s tradition, an important part of our beliefs.” To which the officers answer “Beliefs? Oh, that’s alright.”

    The lobby organization called on the editors of Dagbladet to issue an official apology and for other government and societal leaders in Norway to speak out against the cartoon.

    They care about Jewish babies like liberals care about female babies. May G-d restore order to this messed up world BB”A.

    Where are the cartoons about Muslim circumcision? Or about hospital circumcision? This is not about circumcision, it is about anti-semitism

    This is pure Jewhatred. Norway is almost as bad as any arab nation in this regard. Yes it’s left-wing politics, a very hard left that’s not ashamed of hating all things Jewish.
