Story here. Excerpt:

'The Authority for the Advancement of the Status of Women in Israel has a new target for their anti-domestic violence public service announcements now showing on major TV channels: men.

After years of encouraging women to call the 118 hotline to avoid continuing domestic violence or to find a safe shelter, the AASWI wants men to take responsibility and get help before they become abusive.

The shift is part of a worldwide trend to force men to take responsibility for domestic violence, rather than placing the burden on the victim to seek help.
...
“We need to find creative ways to increase the calls from men as well,” said Vered Swid, the organization’s director-general.

When men call the 118 number and ask for assistance, social workers can direct them to a variety of different services, including support groups, anger management courses, therapy, or temporary apartments to allow a “cooling off period” that enables the woman and children to stay at home rather than deal with a shelter.'

OK, use the call-in line to report yourself committing a crime and ask for help.

Wonder what'd happen if you called in to say your wife was beating you up?

Leave it to the feminist-controlled domestic violence, hate movement to invent new ways to push their addled "gender-based-volence" scam to blame men as shown in Witch-Hunting Males at Youtube.
