Circumcision from a Child-protection perspective

Representatives of child protection bodies packed the National Conference Room in Berlin for a national press conference about the circumcision of boys:
Georg Ehrmann (CEO of the German Child Aid non-profit organization), Dr. Ulrich Fegeler (Presesprecher of the Professional Association of Children and Youth Physicians non-profit organization), Prof. Dr. Matthias Franz (Vice-Director of the Clinical Institute for Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy at the University Hospital, Düsseldorf), Eran Sadeh (founder of "Protect the Child", Israel) and Irmingard Schewe-Gerigk (CEO Land of Women non-profit organization). The video shows the entire first part (presentation of views) plus a declaration by Dr. Fegeler of the rights of the child.
Most of the presentations were in German, but that of Eran Sadeh from Israel was in English and Hebrew.
(Hebrew translated: I hereby call Jews in Israel and anywhere in the world: learn about the advantages of an intact penis, learn about the disadvantages of a cut penis, and join the unstoppable movement of tens of thousands of Jews all over the world who welcome their sons to the world without violating their bodily integrity, without hurting them, and without putting them at risk. There ends a year and its maledictions and a new one begins with its blessings. Happy New Year)
