    Lina Mahul, an Arab woman, won the Israeli version of the Voice in 2012, Salim Joubran, who is Arab of origin, was judge of the Supreme Court of Israel, the United Arab List is part of the 36th government of Israel, there is a Muslim prayer room at the Ben-Gurion Airport as well as there are in hospitals, there are Muslim and Jewish Arabs living in Israel, in Israeli hospitals about twenty percent of the stuff are Palestinians and you will be treated by both Israelis and Palestinians regardless of their ethnicity. In Tel-Aviv there is the gay pride celebrating freedom of the sexes. Arabs, Druze, Christians and Muslims can join the Israeli Army. The wife of Mahmoud Abbas Amina got medical treatment in Israel. In 2018 Arab students accounted for 16.1% of undergraduate students in Israeli universities. And in 2018 there are 13 percent Arabs in graduate programs. This is not apartheid.

    would be nice if the interviewee, who comes from Ramallah, not only mentioned Israeli military control but also that the PLO governs Ramallah in terms of Police and civil government and that they have no elections, that there is no democratic rule, which means that they conduct harsh rule over their own people, while it is also important that there are different tribes within the Westbank, so there not an understanding of one genuine people.

    From the statistics I can see that in 2004 there were about 3,4 Million in the Palestinian territories (about 440 thousand settlers, including Jerusalem) in 2017 there are about 4,95 Million people in the Palestinian territories (about 600 000 thousand settlers including Jerusalem, in an other article it says 770 thousand). So the Palestinian population still increased by a number of 1.3 Million people from 2004 to 2017 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_State_of_Palestine From the statistics en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_settlement

    Always an excuse. They don’t just treat them differently. They treat them as subhuman. They think they are the superior race as the Nazis did of the Arian race. I don’t need to tell you that even the Israeli amnesty group B’Tselem says it is apartheid. Listen and learn from Abby Martin on the victimisation of Palestine by Israel. Listen to Christopher Bollyn. Listen to Ilhan Pepe. Listen to Max Blumenthal. You might learn something.

    Incorrect, Apartheid happens when one group establishes a system of laws ,regulations and policies to control and oppress another group. The White South African Government never considered the inhabitants of the Black homelands as being integral parts of the South African Nation , the homelands with their inhabitants were considered by the Apartheid Government as separate independent national entities despite the fact the Homelands were ultimately controlled by the Apartheid Government, surely you do not consider the White South African state was not an Apartheid entity.

    @@dannyrosenberg4175 No Israel is an Apartheid state, Apartheid treats the other as a lesser, it enacts laws and regulations to oppress the other, Supremacist Jewish settler colonialists have demonstrated this type of attitude and behaviour towards the Non-Jewish population of Palestine from the moment Zionist Jews immigrated to Palestine. It has long been recognised that Israel ran the risk of being seen as an Apartheid regime because of its legal structures and policies that oppresses and dominates the non-jewish inhabitants in both Israel and in the OPT, that reality has now been established as another fact on the ground.
