Update: Father gets 10 Years in First Female Circumcision Trial
UPDATE
Father found guilty of "aggravated battery and cruelty to children. Federal law specifically bans the practice of genital mutilation." It seems that this is how the United States has prevented, or rather, made clear to its inhabitants that (cultural) circumcision is not accepted--by having a federal law banning it. Article on CNN

Are you sure that federal law bans the practice? It looks like this case was tried under ordinary state law, no?
