Bullshit propaganda
Israel is among the most racist states on this planet which probably explains its high approval rating among Trump's Chumps
"In 2007, in advance of a report from the United Nations Human Rights Council,
Special Rapporteur John Dugard said that 'Israel's laws and practices in the OPT [occupied Palestinian territories] certainly resemble aspects of apartheid.'
"Dugard asked: '
Can it seriously be denied that the purpose [...] is to establish and maintain domination by one racial group (Jews) over another racial group (Palestinians) and systematically oppressing them?'
[110][111]
"In October 2010,
Richard A. Falk reported to the General Assembly Third Committee that 'the nature of the occupation as of 2010 substantiates earlier allegations of colonialism and apartheid in evidence and law to a greater extent than was the case even three years ago.'
"Falk described it as a 'cumulative process' and said 'the longer it continues...the more serious is the abridgment of fundamental Palestinian rights.'"

Arafat never negotiated in good faith.
Arafat continued negotiations with Netanyahu's successor,
Ehud Barak, at the
Camp David 2000 Summit in July 2000. Due partly to his own politics (Barak was from the leftist
Labor Party, whereas Netanyahu was from the
rightist LikudParty) and partly due to insistence for compromise by President Clinton, Barak offered Arafat a Palestinian state in 73 percent of the West Bank and all of the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian percentage of sovereignty would extend to 90 percent over a ten- to twenty-five-year period. Also included in the offer was the return of a small number of refugees and compensation for those not allowed to return. Palestinians would also have "custodianship" over the
Temple Mount, sovereignty on all Islamic and Christian holy sites, and three of Jerusalem's four Old City quarters. Arafat rejected Barak's offer and refused to make an immediate counter-offer.
[97] He told President Clinton that, "the Arab leader who would surrender Jerusalem is not born yet."

Arafat knew he would follow in the footsteps of Yitzhak Rabin if he ever signed away the Right of Return for the millions of non-Jews who had their homes, businesses, and bank accounts stolen by Jews in 1948:
2000 Camp David Summit - Wikipedia
"Due to the first Arab-Israeli war, a significant number of Palestinian Arabs fled or were expelled from their homes inside what is now Israel.
"These
refugees numbered approximately 711,000 to 725,000 at the time. Today, they and their descendants number about four million, comprising about half the
Palestinian people.
"Since that time, the Palestinians have demanded full implementation of the right of return, meaning that each refugee would be granted the option of returning to his or her home, with property restored, and receive compensation.
"Israelis asserted that allowing a right of return to Israel proper, rather than to the newly created Palestinian state, would mean an influx of Palestinians that would fundamentally alter the demographics of Israel, jeopardizing Israel's Jewish character and its existence as a whole."
