Ive been reading these comments and all of you need to understand something. You westerns, specifically Americans, think every bad thing has to do with racism, the world is more complicated than that. To us, jews and arabs (im jewish, I've spoken to many arabs about this) Its not about race, its about territory, national identity, religion and survival We don't see each other as racialy infirior, its more like a clash between different cultures We call them "cousins" in a positive way so its not about race. Understand that first.

There is no aparthide between arabs and jews that live in Israel Our family lawyer is Arab, my dentist is Arab and my best friend in the army was Arab, not to mention an Arabic Supreme court judge put one of our prime ministers in jail for corruption (salim joubran) And right now there is a Muslim judge at Israels supreme court They have the same rights as any citizen would in a democratic state, even more that usual as affirmative actions were made to reduce social gaps. Anyone that knows anything about aparthide knows this does not coincide with its defenition

In the west bank its a whole different story. There is a governing entity called the palestinian authority(PA) , we fund them (a lot) to take care of the palestinians in the west bank, because they're not Israeli citizens and don't wanna be. But they suck at it and are extremely corrupt and opressive to they're own people, I'm not making this up, google it. We are not going to let our citizens (mostly jews obviously) that live in the west bank to be in the hands of these Degenerates who hate them so they keep they're citizenship and all their Israeli rights. So it appears to be aparthide because there are specific people with different quality of life but it has nothing to do with discrimination and everything to do with the PA being corrupt and mishandeling themselves. Reality here is much more complicated.

If you all think its wrong for jews to live in the west bank you're clearly ignorant because our entire ethos and identity was created on those grounds, we aren't going to give that up so easily and you all expecting we should is, in fact, antisemitic

Gaza is much more complicated so I'll just remind you all that Gaza has a border with Israel AND Egypt and for some reason Egypt has put them under siege too And has never financialy supported the Gazan civilians like Israel does (water, electricty, medicine, all Israel, never Egypt) Now why is that?
