imitating Nazi Germany.

You can’t make this shit up.

Incidentally, when we said never again? We meant it.

Fair warning.

    WTF?

  2. Joe says:

    Andrew Sullivan got a pup tent after seeing that.

    Yeah, there is no anti semitism about it. Now listen to the new we are the world video on the Palestinian catastrophy (aka the nation of Israel).

  3. Bob Reed says:

    Dude! This rises to the level of NAZI propaganda. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!

    And this, in the bastion of tolerance and diversity. This needs to be distributed far and wide.

  4. JD says:

    Is that for real?

  5. Squid says:

    Comment #2 over there made me laugh out loud.

  6. Darleen says:

    Squid

    yep, #2 is a threadwinner no matter what thread.

  7. Abe Froman says:

    Foreskin Man is one half of the Ambiguously Gay Duo.

  8. R. Sherman says:

    Sitting here stunned.

    They’re not even trying to hide behind “Israel” or “Zionism” anymore. At least they’re obvious about their antisemitism. We can only pray the world doesn’t ignore it this time, but then, I see little/no evidence of that.

  9. McGehee says:

    Foreskin Man is obviously a fake — he’s not even wearing a hood.

  10. Darleen says:

    The strength of the “pro-circumcision lobby” of “well-connected doctors and lawyers” is also discussed.

    Mr Hess said the comic book was not intended to be antisemitic.

    “It takes an unflinching look at the practice of circumcising children, as well as those who perform it,” he said. “The characters are drawn accordingly to convey that message.”*

    I had a slim hope this was a sarcastic way of mocking the “intacts”, but that’s gone now.

    Yikes!

  11. Joe says:

    http://www.foreskinman.com/

    He has a website of his greatest hits.

  12. Ernst Schreiber says:

    How much do you want to bet that there’s taxpayer money involved in this somewhere ?

  13. Darleen says:

    and, good lord, I just realized what that symbol on the Blonde Aryan’s chest is …

  14. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Because we all know what kinds of people become doctors and lawyers, don’t we Mr. Hess?

  15. Darleen says:

    but, Ernst, he’s so unflinching!!

  16. Roddy Boyd says:

    This is…..remarkable.

    Darleen, what is the symbol? A scrotum?

  17. JD says:

    Foreskin Man, Anthony Weiner, headcheese, and smegma all in one week. Brilliant.

  18. eleven says:

    What’s so bizarre is the obvious implication that it’s being done to gentiles against the mother’s will.

    This guy is crank, no pun intended, or maybe it is I’m not saying.

  19. Darleen says:

    Hess lives in San Diego and I found a pic of him.

    He’s got issues.

  20. Darleen says:

    Roddy

    Look at the symbol as a kind of silhouette of the glans surrounded by the foreskin.

    it’s springtime for hitler

    A group of Egyptian political activists have announced plans to set up a local version “of the Nazi party,” an Egyptian newspaper reported on Thursday.

    Citing a leftist Egyptian news portal, the Al-Masry Al-Youm daily said that “the party’s founding deputy is a former military official,” and that the party would be aimed at bringing “together prominent figures from the Egyptian society.”

  22. Silver Whistle says:

    So what you’re saying is, there are too many drawbacks to Foreskin Man?

  23. bh says:

    Hey, SW, I have a TV recommendation for you. The Shadow Line on BBC Two. If you haven’t caught it yet, do so. It’s really, really good.

  24. bh says:

    Actually, that goes for the rest of you as well but I figured that SW actually pays the license fee.

  25. Silver Whistle says:

    I haven’t seen it yet, but will watch it on iPlayer. If it is rubbish, your name will not be spoken in this house again.

  26. motionview says:

    They will have to pry the scissors from his cold, dead hand
    Plan B, if the ballot measure fails.

  27. bh says:

    Heh, it’s a deal.

    Great writing, great acting, great production values. Frankly, I’d pay $10 to watch a movie just based on Stephen Rea’s character alone.

  28. LBascom says:

    I had no idea Jews were so sinister looking. McGehee is right though, Foreskin Man should have a hood.

    With just one eye hole.

    I showed this to my wife, who lived in the Bay area before I met her, and she said “eh, they don’t do them there anyway”. Seems when her son was born(24 years ago), the hospital refused her request to circumcise him, and she had to find a doctor out of the city to do it.

  29. Wm T Sherman says:

    The symbol on F-Man’s chest is a cross section, a view achievable only by slicing longitudinally

    Yeow.

    I wonder how this tawdry collection nutcases and losers made it this far. Maybe because nobody was really paying attention.

  30. zino3 says:

    Whoa!

    I am old now, and thank the stars above that I don’t have to wipe that yellow-green pus stuff off of my stiffy, and bathe my thingie in listerine so it won’t stink when I want to have sex. ICH!

    I am not Jewish, but would drag my balls through a mile of broken glass to kiss the ass of the doctor who cut that goofy piece of skin off of my unit.

    If I lived in the desert, I might need it, but I don’t, and I don’t.

    Who are these absolutely amazing fucking morons who can hate Jews so much that they will try to fuck them up in any way possible?

    Sorry. I don’t get it..

  31. SDN says:

    What part of “leave us the fuck alone” does this bunch not get?

  32. cranky-d says:

    I imagine they are trying to make a comparison between removing the clitoris and removing the foreskin. Of course, such a comparison is ludicrous, but that has never stopped them before.

    I have a harder time buying an anti-semitic angle rather than the idea of a bunch of gay guys worrying about the condition of their units and the units of others that they might meet one day “in person,” so to speak. They are really thinking with their little heads here, even more so than normal.

    However, I am aware of the symbolism and its importance with respect to the covenant G-d made with the Israelites. Outlawing the practice would certainly harm them a bit.

    Should I bother noting that if this were a Muslim practice as well, we wouldn’t be talking about it because there is no way they would outlaw it under those circumstances?

    Soon the only religion left in the public square will the Islam. Well, for a little while. Eventually the classical liberals will have to clean house, and a lot of people are going to be miffed.

  33. Wm T Sherman says:

    It is a Muslim practice. They’ll ignore the law. Come to think of it, so will anybody else with common sense.

  34. Pablo says:

    It is a Muslim practice. They’ll ignore the law. Come to think of it, so will anybody else with common sense.

    Yeah, but they’ll ignore the Muslims because they’re Muslims and you don’t want to offend Muslims, do you, Islamophobe?

  35. zino3 says:

    Please! And pardon me.

    You had better encase your clitoris in reinforced concrete, othrwise, WE AREV GOING TO CUT IT OFF! NO MORE LICKING OF THE BEST PARTS! UNLESS IM GET THIRTY COWS AND TWENTY SHEEP!

  36. Bob Reed says:

    That’s what I noticed too Pablo.

    I’ll bet you don’t see foreskin man “righting all wrongs” at any Muslim ceremonies.

    I guess they’re not worried about “docking” with them…Or, you know, having them go ‘splodeydope at the activists offices.

  37. […] Jeff Goldstein: “Incidentally, when we said never again? We meant it.” Category: Culture […]

  38. […] A Mohel is of course a person trained to perform circumcisions. Interestingly enough, the superhero in this ridiculous, propaganda filled comic, is a blonde haired, blue eyed, perfect specimen of the Aryan race. Hmmm. […]

  39. […] Jeff Goldstein, on the… Foreskin Man… comic book, which is precisely as bad as a cynical reader of the Internet might wearily supposed it to be.  If you’re wondering why the heck that I’m showing you that, by the way – it’s because banning male circumcision is on the ballot in San Francisco, and one of the groups pushing it produces the aforementioned comic book.  Really, it’s not satire: as RS McCain noted, Andrew Sullivan is a noted anti-male circumcision advocate, which should tell you right there that they’re reliably nuts. […]

  40. TaiChiWawa says:

    Hess is in over his head.

  41. cranky-d says:

    It is a Muslim practice. They’ll ignore the law.

    I sit corrected. It surprises me that no one has brought up the discrimination against Muslims that this law embodies.

  42. SDN says:

    cranky, selective enforcement of the numerous laws and regulations on the books is a Copperhead trademark.

  43. Who knew Julius Streicher was from San Francisco?

  44. Joe says:

    A commentator at the Corner (Steyn noticed this too) said: Why isn’t he wearing a turtleneck?

  45. Tomblvd says:

    Having spent the better part of the weekend in the comment sections of blogs discussing this, I’m utterly amazed at the insanity of the anti-circumcision crowd. They are nuts! (er, pardon the pun)

    So much emotion over so small a piece of skin…..

  46. LBascom says:

    Tomblvd, it ain’t about the skin, it’s about control over the skin.

  47. Pellegri says:

    Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat.

    I just.

    What.
