Avi Maoz in the Plenum: "He who tries to harm the Jewish identity is the darkness" (Knesset Channel)
The government is expected to approve on Sunday the transfer of the unit for external programs and partnerships in the Ministry of Education to the authority of Noam party chairman Avi Maoz. As part of the proposal that will be presented at the weekly cabinet meeting, the responsibility for the unit will be in the Prime Minister's Office, where Maoz serves as deputy minister. LGBT organizations protested on the approaching step.
"The same people who told us that there would be no harm to LGBT people are going to raise their hands on Sunday and vote for tearing up the unit that is responsible for content in the education system and handing it over to an avowed LGBT popob whose goal is to remove content of education for tolerance from the education system," they said in Hoshan.
Just before the final approval, the organization that leads a large part of the gender identity and sexual orientation programs in schools warned that "anyone who raises their hand on Sunday and votes for the transfer of powers to the hands of Avi Maoz, separates the LGBTQ youth and lends a hand to hatred, division, harming the youth.
We call on the Likud party to stop this madness - do not give this disaster a hand!
Take care of the youth as you promised."

The chairperson of the LGBT Association, Hila Par, also warned against damage to the education of the youth.
"The sale of the elimination of the education system is the complete abandonment of boys and girls to the hands of a dark and dangerous man who hates women and LGBT people," she accused.
Any vote that is not a complete opposition will be remembered as a historic low for Direon Olam.
The gay community will not move back a millimeter and I do not propose to examine it." It
is not only in the gay community that the winds are raging. The conclusion with Maoz, who has extreme views on LGBT issues, religion and the status of women, led to a cross-sectoral protest in recent weeks.
Dozens of authorities, hundreds of managers and many organizations have signed petitions and letters against him - and some have announced that they will take actual steps to ensure that the contents are not harmed, such as funding programs that will be canceled.

Many plans may be on the horizon.
In the GFN system, the one through which administrators route the school budget and invite external bodies to deliver workshops and lectures, there are approximately ten thousand options for educational purposes. Of these, hundreds, if not thousands, deal with issues that may be controversial for the chairman of the Noam party.
The main concern is harming gender identity and sexual orientation programs, but also programs that deal with issues such as women's service in the IDF, the contents of the reform movement and meeting between Jews and Arabs may be in danger. And without the supervision of the Ministry of Education," said Maoz more than once in reference to the changes he plans to make.
