Netanyahu: Minister Peretz does not represent the governments views
None
Israel's prime minister is condemning remarks by his education minister in favor of "conversion therapy," a controversial psychotherapy technique that seeks to turn gays into heterosexuals.
Benjamin Netanyahu wrote on Twitter that Rafi Peretz's statements are unacceptable and "do not represent my government's position."
In a televised interview over the weekend, Peretz said he supports conversation therapy and has performed it. Health officials have said the technique is scientifically dubious and possibly even dangerous.
