Yisrael Beiteinu Speaker MK Avigdor Liberman wrote a letter to the heads of the LGBT community.
"Israel, our home from its inception until today, adheres to the principle of living and giving, and respects every human being. At the same time, we are not against religion or against the Haredim. Every person in his faith will live. But I will insist that no supermarkets in Tel Aviv or Ashdod are closed on Shabbat."
