Would "Universal Circumcision" fight the spread of AIDS?

I honestly do not get the anti-circumcision crowd who fights to end the practice altogether. It is an ancient part of the Jewish and Muslim religions, and a practice that most doctors believe is essentially harmless to babies. But I also have to wonder when doctors begin proposing to make circumcision universal. Their reason? To combat the spread of AIDS.

The move comes after officials analyzed the results of several studies that show in African countries hit hard by HIV, men who were circumcised reduced their infection risk by half, the New York Times reported. However, those studies focused on heterosexual men who are at risk of getting HIV from infected female partners. The main issue in the U.S. is men who have sex with men.

Of course, the best preventative measure for HIV is to have intercourse only in marriage, and to marry someone who has been previously tested and found to be HIV-free. But I guess that recommendation would be too radical for medical professionals and politicians.
