LGBT activists in Israel are calling for the resignation of Education Minister Rafi Peretz after he claimed gay conversion therapy could work.
Peretz, who was just appointed last month, added he was considering preventing representatives from the Israel Gay Youth movement from speaking at schools, depending on their"messaging." "[I] made it clear to him that the Israeli educational system will continue to accept all Jewish children whoever they are and without any difference based on sexual orientation," Netanyahu said in a statement on Sunday.
."LGBTQ youth commit suicide three times as often as their percentage of the population. This is a matter of saving lives."the incident has become a moment for the LGBT community"to see which elected officials stand where." 'I'm not prepared for a reality in which all 'freedom-of-speech seekers' prove that they are in essence thought dictators,' he added.
