Haredi MK: 'LGBT movement more dangerous to the country than ISIS'

MK Yitzhak Pindrus (United Torah Judaism) believes that the LGBT movement is more dangerous to Israel than ISIS.

Speaking in an interview with Keshet 12, Pindrus said, "From my perspective, the most dangerous thing for the State of Israel - the most dangerous, more than ISIS, more than Hezbollah, more than Hamas - is the permissiveness of promiscuity, because that is what the Torah writes."

"So forget the economy, this is more dangerous than it would be without the IDF. This is the most dangerous thing there is for the State of Israel, because it is written, 'The Land will spit you out,' (Leviticus 18:25) they will chase you out of here and everything."

"And so, from my perspective, I need not only to prevent the pride parade but to prevent this movement in general.'"

Earlier this month, a poll showed that a majority of Jerusalem residents do not want the "pride" parade to take place in their city; 70% of Jerusalem residents believe that the municipality should not support the parade or hang "pride" flags throughout the city. In addition, over 55% of respondents say that the parade was forced upon the city's residents, and 60% say that the Supreme Court should not have been allowed to force the parade to be held by means of emotional and ethics manipulations.
