| Brit Milah (Circumcision) is NOT a Crime! |

Defend Religious Freedom
A Denver Jewish Community Demonstration
Join all people of good will and conscience next Sunday, September 2, at 11 a.m. outside the German Consulate at 425 S. Cherry Street. Tell the world that Brit Milah (ritual circumcision) is NOT a crime!
For the first time in the Federal Republic of Germany, a Jew has been criminally charged for practicing Judaism. This is 2012 - not 1939!
Rabbi David Goldberg, a spiritual leader of the community of Hof in Northern Bravaria, has been formally charged with the crime of brit milah, ritual circumcision. This comes in the wake of a Cologne court ruling that criminalizes ritual circumcision.
As Rabbi Ben Greenberg of BMH-BJ Congregation notes: "We cannot and must not stand idly by as human rights are once again being violated in Germany."
The German Consulate of Colorado and Wyoming is located just across the street from the King Sooper's supermarket nearest to the JCC on Leetsdale. Bring along your family, friends and neighbors for a show of unity and strength. |
