Rishon Lezion City Council member Aryeh Cohen today (Wednesday) put forward a proposal for an order calling for "banning the Education Administration from introducing gays and lesbians to teach classes to students - neither directly nor indirectly," he said.
The mayor of Rishon Lezion, Raz Kinstlich, commented: "We are Egyptian and shocked that there are those who choose to spread such blatant hatred in 2021. The city of Rishon Lezion is a pluralistic city that respects and contains all its residents.
We will continue to support all communities - secular, religious and "domestic".
He added that "in our schools they will continue to teach Bible lessons alongside lessons on gender and acceptance of the other. I am sorry for this proposal which is intended to provoke provocations and rift solely for political purposes and nothing else. himself".
