Yes they do have less rights in the Arab countries surrounding Israel. Israel has very tight borders and keeping the Arabs outside Israel is not apartheid. Inside Israel, fences around Gaza and the West bank is not apartheid, it's to keep brain fevered lunatics from committing death and destruction inside Israel proper. You're just pissed because your brethern can't operate in Israel.Arabs have less rights than Jews.
Aparatheid.
Thanks for playing.
Israel controls the land borders of the West Bank, East Jerusalem and most of Gaza, including territorial sea and air space. Just as South Africa controlled all of the borders of the Bantustans and Southwest Africa. It is Apartheid, it can't be anything else. How can you define it as anything else. And of course some of the people living under such a regime will resist by any means possible as allowed by International Law. Now, once that is understood, what's the peaceful solution?
Bantustans and Southwest Africa were still part of South Africa and were citizens. There lot is not much better even with the end of apartheid.
Palestinians are not citizens Have not applied for citizenship (a small percentage have). Don't want to be citizens. Don't want Israel to exist but want the same rights as Israelis?
A bit like separatists don't want government, don't want to pay taxes, don't want but still vote and take advantage of all emergency, infrastructure and social services that are part of government.
Palestinians expect to be a charity supported by Israel or the world but want no responsibilities of being a part of an Israeli state and sponge off all the benefits all the while trashing Israel both verbally and physically. They don't even seem to want the responsibilities of working for or negotiating for statehood. They can't even form a unity government as a palestinian authority or manage to hold election. It refused to participate in elections till 2006 legislative, won a majority of seats by default, but not the popular vote and refuses to allow elections since then.
Hamas does not allow equal right among the palestinians in gaza.
They certainly don't have rights in other nations of the middle east. They didn't have it with Jordan nor Egypt when they occupied the WB and gaza. Why do they think they have a right to the same with Israelis?
