Israeli Member of Parliament Shlomo Benizri has blamed sodomy for recent tremors. While addressing a committee of the Israeli parliament about the country’s readiness for earthquakes, Benizri told fellow lawmakers to stop “passing legislation on how to encourage homosexual activity in the state of Israel, which anyway brings about earthquakes”.
Israel decriminalized homosexuality in 1988. In recent years, Israeli court rulings have granted inheritance rights to gay couples, recognized same-sex marriages performed abroad, and allowed gay couples to adopt.
