'I am a homophobic Fascist' says Israeli Minister Smotrich Private conversation made public by Kan TV

(ANSAmed) - TEL AVIV, 16 JANUARY - "I am a homophobic Fascist, but a man of word...I will not stone gays…". These words, attributed to Bezalel Smotrich, Israeli Minister of Finance in Benjamin Netanyahu's government, and leading figure of religious Zionism, appear destined to spark outrage in Israel. These affirmations are part of a private conversation that took place some months ago, but the taped conversation was circulated now by Kan TV.



The recorded conversation has Smotrich explain that his supporters know that he is against the LGBT movement "but they don't care". "I am the only one - he then added in reference to his constituents and electors - not to have cooperated with the United Arab list and to preserve the land of Israel for their nephews. They will have my back".(ANSAmed).
