I hadn't realize Israel was so discriminatory regarding marriage. Given these rules, my wife and I never could have been married there. Wild. Not sure it's helpful having governments decide who can marry who based on which fantasies they believe in.

This isn't what you are making it out to be, at all. And even if true, which it isn't, it is centuries ahead of its neighbors, which you care nothing about. You only criticize Israel.

Marries is not performed by the Israeli government, they don't do it. Religious organizations do it. Want to get married? Go see a church, mosque, Synagogue. That kind of thing. They recognize all marriage that enters the country. And if you don't like their system, you can get married online from an organization that provides your marriage type.

So once again, you are wrong, you probably won't ever retract your hateful posts, but carry on.

That's a nice way to just make excuses for the Israeli government.

Same sex marriage is not performed in Israel. Full stop. Don't make excuses and hope israel does better. Nobody is claiming their neighbors do but when you're a supposed democracy, might be time to act like one.

And " at least they aren't thrown off roofs" is not an acceptable response.

That isn't true at all. Israel does not control the religious organizations, they are free. If they don't offer it, same as Canada, they don't offer it. Not much more than that.

Making lies about Israel and judging them differently is certainly your M.O. And no, Israel does not throw the LGB community off roofs, instead they are celebrated. So yes, that is an acceptable response, a massive difference, and if you can't admit that, you are disgusting. And if your big hurdle is how marriage works in another country, we both know you don't care since you don't think murdering LGB is a big deal.

What? Canada doesn't offer same sex marriage? I'm confused by your post.

How are same sex couples celebrated if they can't get married IN Israel?

It’s LGBT at minimum, not LGB, thanks.

Does Canada force churches to perform same sex marriages? No, they do not.

Does Israel force churches to perform same sex marriages? No, they do not.

You literally argue anything no matter how wrong you are, as long as it makes Jews, I mean Israel, look like the bad guy.

[Zary's-Mustache]

Why does everything that Israel does turn into "but their neighbor does worse"!

Just one time I'd like to see the Pro Israel posters just come out and say that Israel needs to do better without the "but".

Because Israel should not even be on your radar (except we all know why they are). It is evidence of your hypocrisy.

Wow are you actually serious right now? Difference is in Canada if the church DOES perform the same sex marriage, Canada recognizes it.

In Israel it is not recognized at all because it isn't allowed.

You do realize that the government has to register the marriage right? Doesn't matter if it's in a drive thru performed by Ronald mcdonald or a Synagogue.

The state of israel does not recognize same sex marriages performed in Israel.

Yeah because of the current genocide they're commiting. I'm sure that's what you meant.

Israeli high court rejects bid for same sex marriage.

How could this be true if it's not the Isreal government responsible for their marriages?

Israel recognizes same sex marriages. Same sex couples can adopt children in Israel. You are really reaching for something that isn't there, as Israel is often considered one of the most gay friendly countries anywhere.

Nor do you care at all, if you can smear Israel, that is your gameplan. The most genocidal, child killing country anywhere somehow also ensures there is freedom of religion, freedom of speech, equal rights and is a safe space for LGB communities. Something fishy in your line of thought...

In case you missed this ruling by the Israeli high courts.

Sept. 11, 2017) On August 31, 2017, Israel’s Supreme Court, sitting as a High Court of Justice, unanimously rejected a petition by Israel’s LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) Task Force and individual petitioners.

Still not allowed no matter what words you use to twist your narrative.

If Israel recognizes same sex marriage performed in Israel then why was it taken to the Supreme Court and then rejected?

Honestly If I said the sky was blue you'd argue that too. And probably make up some stuff and call me an antisemite as well.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. paused a shipment of bombs to Israel last week over concerns that Israel was approaching a decision on launching a full-scale assault on the southern Gaza city of Rafah against the wishes of the U.S., a senior administration official said Tuesday.

The shipment was supposed to consist of 1,800 2,000-pound (900-kilogram) bombs and 1,700 500-pound (225-kilogram) bombs, according to the official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive matter, with the focus of U.S. concern being the larger explosives and how they could be used in a dense urban setting. More than 1 million civilians are sheltering in Rafah after evacuating other parts of Gaza amid Israel’s war on Hamas, which came after the militant group’s deadly attack on Israel on Oct. 7.

Well the difference is that LGBT is commonly considered inclusionary (of queer identities) despite being outdated and LGB purposely is trans-exclusionary.

But no, the poster doesn’t care. They’ve used LGBT before themselves and never once used LGBTQ, so they’re just being a troll.

Mosab Hassan Yousef, the estranged eldest son of Hamas co-founder Sheikh Hassan Yousef, was in Vancouver on Thursday to speak at a community event organized by the Jewish Federation of Greater Vancouver. (Disclosure: I gave introductory remarks at the same event and later took part in a panel discussion with Yousef and moderator Niels Veldhuis, president of the Fraser Institute.)
Yousef, known alternatively as “son of Hamas” and “The Green Prince,” pulled no punches in sharing his dismal assessment of the militant Islamist movement that runs in his own blood.
“It’s pure evil that we’re witnessing,” Yousef told a packed house of more than 1,000 attendees at Vancouver’s Scara Tzedeck Synagogue. According to the event’s organizers, roughly half of those who came out to hear Yousef speak came from outside of the Jewish community.
“(Hamas) isn’t just a threat against Israel or the Jewish people, it’s a threat against all civilization,” he added. “If we don’t stop them, bury them in the canals that they have dug themselves, it is going to be a disaster for mankind.”

Turning more serious, Yousef said the sight of masks on campus brought back unpleasant memories from his childhood of the first intefadeh in late 1987.
“Masked men would come to our school and say, ‘leave, go to the checkpoints, throw stones on Israel.’ And we did not go to school during the first intefadeh for three years… This is why I’m outraged to say I don’t want to see this here in (North America).”
“First they target education,” Yousef warned. “This is the beginning of chaos.”
During a brief one-on-one interview after the event, Yousef told me that his previously expressed views in support of a large-scale Israeli offensive in Rafah haven’t changed.
“Going into Rafah is necessary and it’s the best option Israel has,” Yousef said, insisting that trying to eliminate Hamas leaders currently pinned down in Gaza’s southernmost city “from a distance” would only extend the war.

One thing Yousef is certain of is that acceding to international calls to cancel or scale-back the Rafah offensive would be a historic blunder.
“It would be like (after) all the atrocities of this war and we still give Hamas the opportunity to repeat what they did (on October 7) again and again.”
“We cannot afford to have Hamas stay in power.”

This is just one guy’s opinion. But a guy who has been on the inside of the Hamas organization.

I think Hamas has their backs against the wall in Rafah, and they know they are in big trouble, hence why they are now wanting a ceasefire.

Hopefully Israel can wipe out the remaining Hamas with minimal civilian casualties, although that hasn’t been the case so far. As stated by Mosab, if Hamas isn’t removed, we will see more attacks like Oct 7, leading to more war and more civilian deaths.
