the rabbi's point is valid. the IDF is not in the business of determining who's married, or what a soldier's sexuality is -- tho it IS in the business of stopping ALL forms of sexual harassment and exploitation within the IDF. what's still not ok is the labelling gays as 'deviants' which means more than simply 'not the average, median, mean, or norm' statistically in Israel or judaisms. for haredim, religious zionists, are minorities in israel still, and that makes them as 'deviant' as gays... and i hope no one is calling them deviants... at least in public.
