Israeli Communications Minister David Amsalem has threatened to shut down the Hebrew language channel of GOD TV, an evangelical Christian broadcaster. Israeli law bans proselytizing to those under 18 without the consent of their parents, and Amsalem says the channel could be banned if its programming targets minors.”We won’t allow any missionary channel to operate in the state of Israel, not at any time and not under any circumstances,” he said.
