Good news from OZ, Gutnick found a 'non-kosher' bris

Australian Jewish News: Orthodox block bar mitzvah over 'non-kosher' circumcision.

Rabbi Moshe Gutnick and Rabbi Yoram Ulman, two judges at the Jewish court, were at the mikvah in Bondi preparing to draw a drop of blood from the boy to symbolise his Orthodox conversion when they noticed that his brit milah, conducted by a Jewish doctor in 1993, was incomplete.

Ca. Rabbi comments: You'll excuse me, but from the article in Aus. it seems to further make my point, that there are only degrees of leniency, one YB totally off the wall and YU MG willing to compromise to a point.

This kid seems like he too was converted with his mother by some shmo Joe. They (YU MG) accepted the kid and taught him his Bar Mitzvah and requested a Hatofos dam knowing the kid did not have an al pi halocho bris and perhaps was not Jewish at all, al pi Halacha (because there is no requirement for a real Jew to be denied putting on Tefillin if his Bris is not proper).

Then they discovered his bris could not be rectified with a quickie hatofos dam bris (which anyone can question the merit of this procedure under these circumstances) and he remains a Gentile until a full fledged bris is done which they refused, and therefore MG YU refused Bar Mitzvah to a Goy (thank G-d) which another Shliach YB seemed to make light of and the mother who couldn't be that dedicated to real yiddishkeit to begin with decided to jump ship. This is obviously all conjecture from an article in a paper.
