Key words outside Israel. It's clear what your saying a union is ok as long as it doesn't occur in Israel.

Let me know when Israel gets on board with same sex marriages, performed in Israel.

Telling people their marriages are only valid if performed outside the community they belong to, much less in a foreign state is the ultimate rejection.

It's like California telling people they could only have a same sex marriage if they were legally married in Guam. We would laugh at that nonsense just like LGBT might laugh at the notion for equality for LGBT in Israel.
