The harsh words of the chairman of the Torah Judaism faction, Member of Knesset Yitzhak Pindros about the LGBT community, which is “the most dangerous thing for the State of Israel” – caused a storm this evening (Wednesday) also on the stage of the Hiba Theater. During Ohad Hitman’s show “The most beautiful year of my life”, which deals with parenthood and a proud family, the actor Ben Yosifovich finished a number – and expressed his anger.

“I hate that there are members of the Knesset who think that we gays are more dangerous than terrorist organizations,” Yosefovich said at the end of the song “Shona” in the musical. According to sources in the production, at the National Theater and in the entire production team, they were shocked by the words of Knesset member Pindros – but were surprised by Yosifovich’s improvisation at the end of the number.

“I hate you, hate hate hate that people don’t remember one of the most beautiful sentences ever written – and love your neighbor as yourself.” Yosefovich received loud applause from the audience and chants of “well done”.

The actor came out in protest of the words of the MK, who said in an interview this evening to “People” at Bequest 12, the following about the LGBT community: “In my view, this is the most dangerous thing for the State of Israel, more than ISIS, Hezbollah, more than Hamas, it’s the intrusions Because that is what is written in the Torah.”

Pindarus’ words provoked widespread public outrage and reaction from all ends of the political spectrum. Before a short song, Member of Knesset Yorai Lahav-Hertzno Mish Atid shared that this morning he contacted the Prosecutor’s Office, demanding to open a criminal investigation against Pindros, for inciting violence.

Ohad Hitman, the creator of the play, said: “I was thrilled that the audience cheered for him. This play advocates that everyone has the right to choose their own story and their own path! Among other things, I am happy that the stage and the Haifa Theater gave respect and a central place in the play to the characters of gay parents on the big stages “.
