What the hell kind of bizarro world deflection attempt is this?

It happens extremely rarely in Israel, and if it does the state does try to intervene either through social workers or the police and its considered to be a fairly repulsive practice if it does happen.

On top of that the legal age to consent to marry in Israel is 17.
