Jerusalem gay pride insulted by anti-gay posters

Calling the gay pride march full of those who "sexually assault and sodomize children," posters were found around Jerusalem, Israel, a few days before the parade. Organizers of the parade say it's that attitude that tells them they need to hold a parade. Jerusalem city councilman Sa'ar Netanel said the ideas on the posters were like those who say Jews use the blood of Christians to celebrate Passover. This is the fourth parade held in the capital city and some say it's a preparation for the world gay pride day to be held there next year. Protesters have threatened to throw eggs and tomatoes at parade marchers this year.
