Shas MK Nissim Ze’ev said Monday in response to the Gay Pride parade that will take place in Jerusalem on Thursday that homosexuals need rehabilitation, not a march. He added that the march should certainly not take place in Jerusalem, “where 99 percent of the residents oppose it.”

“This march is a provocation. The [homosexual] population needs help and rehabilitation, not a feeling of pride and victory,” Ze’ev said. “In the end of the day this population will disappear, because they have no future.”
