LGBT backlash in Israel as ally of PM Benjamin Netanyahu calls for law to let hospitals refuse gay people treatment on 'religious grounds'
Daily Mail ^ | December 27, 2022 | Jame Callery

Israel's largest medical centre and healthcare workers from hospitals around the country have spoken out against remarks by allies of Benjamin Netanyahu calling for a law to allow discrimination against LGBTQ people in hospitals and businesses...

Two Netanyahu allies from the ultranationalist Religious Zionism party said their faction seeks to change an anti-discrimination law in a way that would permit businesses and doctors to deny service to LGBTQ people on the basis of religious belief.

Orit Struck, a Religious Zionist lawmaker, seeks a change to the country's anti-discrimination law that would allow religious healthcare providers to refuse to treat LGBTQ patients 'so long as there are enough other doctors to provide care'.

Sheba Medical Center released a video on Instagram of healthcare workers saying 'we treat everyone'. Similar statements were made by doctors and administrators at Rambam Medical Center in Haifa and Barzilai Hospital in Ashkelon.

Netanyahu rebuked Struck for her remarks, saying there would be no curtailing of LGBTQ rights under the new government.

Yated Neeman, a newspaper affiliated with one of the ultra-Orthodox parties in Netanyahu's coalition, published an editorial against the Religious Zionism politicians, saying they were 'defaming Judaism worldwide' and branding the future government as 'one that persecutes Arabs, minorities and discriminates against people on the basis of religion and more'. 

Several Israeli companies said they would not work with businesses that discriminate against clients for religious reasons.

Bank Discount, Israel's third largest bank, said Monday that its board decided that it 'would not grant credit to businesses or bodies that discriminate against clients on the basis of religion, race, sex or sexual orientation'. 

Wiz, an Israeli cybersecurity company, expressed 'grave concern' over Religious Zionism politicians' remarks and said it would require companies hiring its services to commit not to discriminate against its clients.

...PM Benjamin Netanyahu calls for law to let hospitals refuse gay people treatment on 'religious grounds'

Absolutely certain this is Homo Hogwash Propaganda Misrepresentation, however so I can have some fun at the Homos expense, here is my comment:

That's Queer, apparently no one told Bibi that Homos run everything!

In your haste, you misread and misquoted the headline. It says:

It didn't say Netanyahu himself.

"a law to allow discrimination"

Discrimination is a human right. Without it, no one could tell right from wrong, good from bad.

The push for perversion comes from the very top; the "activists" have been mere window dressing. I don't know if they consider this one way to slow down human reproduction and reduce the population or if it's some sort of sick ritual sin thing.

I only know that it isn't Soros and his thugs who are in control, but HaShem, and when all is said and done only His Will will prevail.

May it be His Will to deliver us soon!

If true (probably isn’t), the law would go too far; but the gay agenda in Israel still needs to be reigned in.

How would a hospital know if someone was gay?

It's a bald-faced LIE.

"...[I]ncoming prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu pushed back against claims that Israel would soon make it legal to discriminate on religious grounds....

In your haste, you misread and misquoted the headline. It says:

Well, No, and Yes.

I did not misread, however I did misquote.

It is perfectly proper to misquote a Homo Shill, as they always speak with the Intent to Deceive.

The Homo Shill in this case, attempted to denigrate Bibi with the Qualifier "ally of" slipped in.

I hold that the source is NO ally of Bibi and has been conflated with him for the purpose of demonization of Bibi.

This is a Homo Propaganda article.

Now you can see the humor at the expense of Homos, in my comment.

I’m going to assume there’s more than one hospital in Israel...

You're right. Now if there was only one hospital in Israel this would be a problem. But there's hundreds of hospitals in Israel. I'm also betting that in a life threatening situation the person (regardless of sexual kink) would be treated, then sent to a non-religious hospital.
