LAWRENCEVILLE, Georgia (AP) -- The trial of an Atlanta-area father accused of circumcising his 2-year-old daughter with scissors is focusing attention on an ancient African practice that experts say is slowly becoming more common in the U.S. as immigrant communities grow.
Khalid Adem, a 30-year-old immigrant from Ethiopia, is charged with aggravated battery and cruelty to children.
Human rights observers said they believe this is the first criminal case in the U.S. involving the 5,000-year-old practice.
Prosecutors say Adem used scissors to remove his daughter's clitoris in their apartment in 2001. The child's mother said she did not discover it until more than a year later.
"He said he wanted to preserve her virginity," Fortunate Adem, the girl's mother, testified this week. "He said it was the will of God. I became angry in my mind. I thought he was crazy."
The girl, now 7, also testified, clutching a teddy bear and saying that her father "cut me on my private part." Adem cried loudly as his daughter left the courtroom.

She has an amazing story.
Voodoo?;)
It's not an "ancient African practice" It's a practice of the R.O.P. Afraid to say "MUSLIM", CNN? It figures. CNN was afraid to say "Muslim" and point out all the Christian women who were forcibly circumcised by barbaric Muslim animals during the Timor uprising, just as they are still afraid to point out this forced circumcision in other places where MUSLIM uprizings are slaughtering Christians, Hindu's Buddhists, Monks and converting their new slave women into circumcised Muslims with dull kitchen knives.
We won't hold our breath for CNN and other leftist America hating, pro Islam media to report the real news of whats going on in the world, such as Somalia's fundamentalist Muslims preparing to invade and cause another slaughter in Ethiopia. So far, not a word of this in MSM.
For those who haven't heard of this developing news:
Somali Islamists recruit for jihad against Ethiopia
MOGADISHU -- Somali Islamists have begun recruiting thousands of young fighters to fight a jihad against Ethiopia, officials said Wednesday, amid fears of all-out war across the lawless Horn of Africa nation.
A day after claiming to have captured an Ethiopian military officer in fierce weekend battles with a militia allied to Somalia's weak government, the Islamists said that at least 3,000 people had enlisted for combat in the holy war.
"Satanism"
If I might be allowed a "multicultural" moment; they worship that which is evil. There are many names by which that is called - take yer pick.
Obviously, when they destroy or pervert the gifts our Creator has given us - sexual pleasure being one of the very best and among my personal favorites - it's because they hate Him and the gifts that he bestows upon his children.
You don't want to, especially how the Muzzies do it to their captives.
I was there in 1981 and saw the aftermath of what they had done to all the Christian women while they were beheading their husbends.
Muslims are nothing but barbaric sub-animals. Then they act like victims and lie with a straight face. They are good at it too. Our media hides so much of their crimes against Humanity, as does the UN.
I am not a fan of prison sexual abuse, but in the case of a monster who would use scissors on his 2 year old daughter, I think I would like to see him sharing a cell for the next 50 years with a succession of 300+ lb Aryan Nation weightlifter S&M freak buggerers. Simple castration is too good for this subhuman.
Where did you see this in 1981?
Semper Fi
Cry me a river. This man should be imprisoned in a cold, hard place and then deported back to his natal hell hole.
From Wikipedia:
"The procedure was legally practiced by doctors in the United States until 1996"
What???
Really. Given the sensitivity and loveableness of the average Arab male, I wouldn't imagine mutilation to be even necessary for women to have a lousy time in bed.

PREVALENCE
Female circumcision is currently practiced in at least 28 countries stretching across the center of Africa north of the equator; it is not found in southern Africa or in the Arabic-speaking nations of North Africa, with the exception of Egypt.6 Female circumcision occurs among Muslims, Christians, animists and one Jewish sect, although no religion requires it.*
Exactly,...They're holding out for their goats!
Poor little goats.
Aww,...it ain't so "bbbbahhhd".
Are you trying to get my goat?!
This is the 21st century. This is America. That bastard who refused to acknowledge that, and who refused to assimilate to our standards and laws, should be deported immediately! And I do mean immediately! Grab him, shove him on a boat or a plane and get rid of him NOW!
Dont even try to tell me the mother didnt notice this until a year later. Thats Bullshit and we all know it.
Is she trying to tell me this child was potty trained at 1 year, never messed itself, never bled from the cut, never complained of the pain? Thats crap. The mother is as guilty as the father , they should both rot in hell.
I would,...excepth that I'm "a litle horse".
Now I gotta run because I really do have critters (goats and ponies) to get out of the rain and I susspect the Administrator may soon be forced to remove us for bad puns.
