First this is the best video I have on why circumcision should be restricted to consenting adults (with exceptions for medical emergencies)

In this video we discuss the issues of tradition and risk of diseases such as cancer and aids. Those concerns are debunked here.

Fun fact, even though uncircumcised men are at a slightly higher risk for things such as penile cancer, according to the 2012 Facts and Figures report by the American Cancer Society, men are at greater risk for breast cancer (2,190 reported cases) than they were for penile cancer (1,570) Yet we never hear of people wanting to remove the breast muscles from children because they might get cancer in old age.

For those who wish to Circumcise because it is in the Bible, I would encourage them to read Acts Chapter 15

For those who wish to read about how circumcision predates the time of Moses you can do so here. circinfo.net/history_and_recent_trends.html
Further notes, even though circumcision is a tradition in many Muslim homes, there is no passage in the Qu'ran that I can find that mentions it. It is essentially tradition for them.
