Khalid is not confused because he lives there and know more than you and me. There are many different cultures in Israel because its immigrants came from more that 50 countries and that is the reason they have 120 parties and they will never agree with each other.

but the author fails to note that Jews cannot live in Arab areas - both because of their own safety and also because they're branded "settlers" and it would upset the "Arab nature of the village" aka APARTHEID. He cites moshavim, a private community, as an example. Well, it's a poor one because even Jews do not gain access to live there if they want to.

because there too there is no rail station. The city too has low flat lands. Idiot, there are two reasons for the lack of rail service. 1) rail service was general put in place where it had existed previously. There was NONE, even under Ottoman Turks, to Nazareth. Perhaps they to were "apartheid". There is an issue with apportioning land for public use - which when done Israeli Arabs claim they are disaffected and scream Apartheid on Land Day. Ok, and there is the various hilly areas to go around to get there. Note it took years to get upgrades just to existing rail lines. Now, consider the environmental impact which is a big one. Such an impact is what blocked rail line extensions to Eilat and to other regions to service Bedouins and the like. Finally, what's the return on investment? What will a rail line do that buses and van taxis cannot, which are already plentiful and cheaper? Your's is a stupid argument, one filled with hate. And for the record, your ancestral homeland is the Arabian Peninsula, not the Jewish State. It seem you're not even born in the region so besides misconceptions about it (most likely from Arab sources), your historical narrative is all afook.

while living freely in the Jewish State, with freedom of movement, publishing his opinion in a Jewish newspaper, without any fear for his life or other repercussions. Doesn't sound like any "apartheid State" I've ever heard of.

and the fact is...most Arabs didn't own the land they were sitting on, but were either renters who never left or squatters who came unabated during the Mandate period. But by your definition, can we accusation Pallys of being apartheid for their theft of Jewish land through ethnic cleansing, in Gaza and WB? Sure can.

there was no ethnic cleansing by the Jewish State of Israel. Most Arab ran because of fabricated stories by the Arab Higher Committee.... and Arabs who live inside Israel are equal citizens and have been since 1948. If there was ethnic cleansing, they wouldn't be there.

Were you there during that time? Did you ask Jews who were forced from Arab lands through illegal ethnic cleansing how life was before then? I have and life was not rosy as you claim. Jews were second class citizens, paid a protection tax, were barred from certain professions and education, but Jews as a whole know how to survive and did. Using your logic, one can say the Jews of Europe and Russia were perfectly happy as well. Arabs always felt superior to Jews and made it known. Only after the massive humiliation of their loss to Jews in Israel did they exercise their hatred and attack their own Jews who were not even Zionists. 1400 years (as you claim) in the land and suddenly these long-term citizens were made foreigners, their property stolen, some killed, and thrown out of the country based solely on their religious-ethnic background. THAT'S Apartheid!!

people who want your destruction.

and not even the local Arab residents would have understood the meaning of this term "palestinians". There is no concensus on the exact number of Jews in 1900, because a great many of them were NOT Ottoman Citizens and were NOT counted in the Ottoman population census. What there is a concensus on, however, is that Jews were already a majority of the population of Jerusalem before this time.

And you bought it. That would be your problem, not ours. How many parties in Israel? 120? LOL! How about a cool million?

Sir; Apartheit as you call it, will be 100 years old if Palestinian leaders don't stop walking away from the many peace talks with all kinds of new demands and conditions. It could have been settled a lifetime ago if the Caliphate mentality were not there. if you desired.

Actually Nazareth does not have a railway station. But that is not a sign to apartheid. Tiberias, Afula and Safed, all Jewish cities, do not have railway stations either. There simply is no railway to Galil. Probably too expensive given the low population density and the hilly topography in this area.

Yes I was there living in a Jewish neighborhood and I know exactly what happened. No ethnic cleansing Happe ned they all voluntarily revoked their nationality and traveled by PLANES carrying millions of their own country's currency but they left their houses. We were given a house for free by our neighbor but my mother rejected the offer. I know many true stories and even I my life was saved while I was drowning by my close friend Ya'cub (Jacob) who traveled by air to Israel through Cyprus. Jews used to control all bazaars. all brands of cars, gold market, Orosdi Beck, the most expensive department store, Pharmacies, and many other businesses. A Jew was the Minister of Finance, A Jew was the chairman of the supreme court, Jews were occupying most of the first class jobs at all foreign companies and so forth and so forth. Some of my friends are Soffair, Twaik, Aqairib, Dellal, Amir, Fattal, Shafeek, Cohain, Salman, Neesan and others and others. Tell me what I said is not true

All this article shows is your ingrained voluntary ignorance.As a person who lived through the apartheid era you have no idea what you are talking about. Your uses of the word is a sad anti Jewish diatribe to facilitate your agenda of negating the importance of Israel as JEWISH state

Oh yes he could, and he has proof!

Heed your own words, bumpkin, there is only one "m" in the word Belgium.

for perfid criminals to present themselves as victims. Their speciality using symbols and miss concepts for their propaganda and ynet help them in name of political correctnes . In any responsible democratic country , the false publication should be severe punished with law suit and fines.

Israel has one firth of its people Arab and Islamic .Many are treated in Isreali hospitals have a good life expectancy low infant mortality and few lack water food and shelter .How many Jews have full citizenship in the Gulf States or can advocate for a Jewish state in Iran.How many Jews did Islam offer refuge to from Nazi Genocide .Islam in the Main has Regressed since the Salladin and it is because the Jews were oppressed severely.

Ishmael your descend was expelled from Abraham house for his missbehaviour, and you and other 20% following this rule. In this 66 years coexistence in Israel, your people did not show any sign of gratitude for your achievement through Israeli benevolence to offer you a better future, and not as the miserable life of you brother from other Arab country or PA &Hamas combined. e as not as of your brother from otherArab b countries.

employed by the State who uses libelous terms such as "Apartheid" and dares to use it in the media should be immediately sacked from his position. This man knows full well what Apartheid is and he knows full well that the term does not apply to the country which gives him and his family employment and social benefits just like it does for all its citizens. This is empth rhetoric and he knows it.

The Kingdom of Israel is mentioned in the Bible, Harold. The Bible predates the United Nations. If you were any more dumb, you'd need to be watered twice a week.

My parents were both born in Poland. I was born in the United States. I am not, however, Polish American. I am Jewish. The same is true for Jews who come from every other country in the world. The Germans did not consider us German; the Poles did not consider us Poles; the Dutch did not consider us Dutch .... et cetera. So our identification as Jews was forced upon us. And now the same people who forced it upon us criticize for identifying ourselves as Jews. Just no pleasing some goyim, and you know what, Harold? We really don't care what floats your boat. In fact, we don't care if it sinks -- in your case, under the weight of a truly remarkable stupidity. Tell us -- we're all friends here, and very sympathetic to your plight -- were your mom and dad related? Siblings, perhaps? Which are you -- a Juke or a Kallikak?

Yes there was a Jewish kingdom but disappeared like the Babylonians, Chadians, Assyrians, Hittites, Medians, Lydians and many others but they all disappeared and their people are still living in the Middle East. Israel was lucky to have a space in Palestine through Balfour and Truman. Do you think all the above have the right to have their own states as Israel has.
