An Israeli organization is offering free couples counseling to LGBTQ couples under the auspices of the Welfare Ministry headed by Yesh Atid’s Meir Cohen, Arutz Sheva reported.
The organization also offers free parental guidance, family therapy, child and adolescent care, and legal advice to LGBTQ couples only, all funded by Israeli taxpayers’ money. There are no comparable services offered to normative couples.
The head of the B’Tzalmo organization, Shai Glick, stated: “Public funds, like their name says, belong to the public. If the Welfare Ministry thinks it’s necessary to fund couples counseling for the general public, it should do so. But to give public funds to a small group only is blatant discrimination and a lack of equality. We demand from the government ministers, like the Health Minister and the Welfare Minister and other ministers, to tend to all Israeli citizens and not just small minority groups.”
Michael Poa, the head of Bochrim B’Michpacha (Choosing Family), said: “After Health Minister Nitzan Horowitz harmed Israel’s blood reserves and the medications budget [a reference to the inclusion of voice change surgery for transvestites in this years’ budget] in favor of the advancement of an agenda of the dissolution of the family, Welfare Minister Meir Cohen is trying to bypass him from the left…apparently the ministers in Bennett’s government are competing with each other over who will most promote the LGBTQ cult – at the expense of the general population.”

Truly stupid. To the extent such counseling and mental health services are offered, they should be available to all regardless of sexual orientation.
when you want government programs for thing someone else doesn’t like don’t complain when he gets a program you don’t like.
think about that
the same applies non-money related policies like public spaces (the kotel)
How much does the State pay to fund your cult to sit and read books instead of work? How much funding goes to support children in large families whose parents make no effort to earn anwhere near enough money to pay for the upkeep of those large families? I think you should look in the mirror before you complain benefits going to a small group of tax paying citizens who serve in the army and go to university and contribute fully to society.
This is acceptable but keeping stipends as they are to large frum families is not. What will it take to bring down this evil group?
I am ashamed I voted for this government, believing a religious PM would be good for us – I have been since Day 1. Never again! I don’t think I’ll ever vote again, they are all corrupt liars.
The “beginning of the flowering of redemption” seems pretty, um, for lack of a more precise word, it seems pretty gay.
