Abomination of the day: Israel legalizes gay adoption

Now, let me get this straight. The "Jewish State" of Israel will officially recognize and offer entitlements to gay/lesbian/transgender lovers who want to adopt children, but will not permit anyone who's Jewish to live in Judea?

WTF?

Ynet News - The Family Affairs Court has handed adoption decrees to a Lesbian couple, Tal and Avital Yaros-Hakak, an act that represents State recognition of the couple as mothers to their three joint children.

The ruling came at the end of a long legal battle, decided at the High Court last year. The Yaros-Hakak couple has lived together for 16 years, and during their time together gave birth to three children through the help of anonymous sperm donations.

Harel (15), the couple's oldest son, said after the decision, "Avital is my mother, just like Tal. We are a family and the decision won't change something in my day to day life, but from the perspective of the State it's very significant. This recognition is needed for all of the government ministries. Until today, we weren't thought of as a family from the point of view of the State."

So, it is forbidden by the state for a Jew to go to the Temple Mount with a yarmulke, or to visit Joseph's tomb in Hebron, but, hey, let's officially authorize homosexuals to raise the Children of Israel.

I guess I may be considered a radical zealot for suggesting there is something very wrong with this picture, but the decadence of the State of Israel is a disgrace to the Land of Israel and to any Jew who cares about being Jewish.
