FGM - a Muslim practice? [split: UN Condemns the Dutch Film]

Re: FGM - a Muslim practice? [split: UN Condemns the Dutch Film]

Did you even read the link from WHO? It is common in Latin America as well? How is that a Muslim Practice then?

An estimated 135 million girls and women have undergone genital mutilation, and two million girls a year are at risk- approximately 6,000 per day. Although it is predominantly practiced in twenty-eight North African countries, FGM is not inherent to any nation or religion.

Amnesty and WHO say it is not inherent to any religion or nation. Yet you do. I wonder who is wrong?
