Jews, are all jewish circumcisions performed orally or just some?

It's just a question. Dont get all offended?

Update 2:

Are jews off limits or something? Did i miss the memo. Why are you all offended by a simple question. Your rabbis dont seem to have a problem talking about it. Look. https://youtu.be/uaCrUetfefQ

    Eh?? Circumcision is performed with a *knife*.

    According to the Centers for Disease Control, in 2014, 81% of males between the ages of 14 and 59 are circumcised. They are certainly not all Jewish. Only the ultra-Orthodox perform such rituals and they make up about 10% of Jews in the United States.

    Circumcisions are performed with a knife. There is some bloodletting ritual in the Jewish tradition but not generally.

    just some

    mostly the Ultra Orthodox

    Under Jewish law, a mohel must draw blood from the circumcision wound. Most mohels do it by hand with a suction device, but some Orthodox groups use their mouth to draw blood after cutting the foreskin.
