European liberal critique of religion now targets Muslim rituals as Jewish ones once did.

Evidence

In Britain as well as on the European continent, the presence of a large and new Muslim community means that Muslims rather than Jews have become the litmus test for bad communitarian practices. The liberal consensus against ‘Islamic rituals’ such as female genital cutting also easily extends itself to rituals such as infant male circumcision as a violation of human rights, as in the anti-Islam campaigner Hirsi Ali’s short-lived opposition in 2004 to that practice. — James Renton, Ben Gidley (eds.), Antisemitism and Islamophobia in Europe, 908

Categorization

• XREF: Directly parallels the ‘Complaints About Immodesty’ article — the exact same scapegoating mechanism, new target group.
• SEED: An essay could trace the moving target of ‘bad communitarian ritual’ in European liberalism from Jews to Muslims — how the same liberal framework picks new victims.
