For example : the territory is zoned, there are military checkpoints and depending on your ethnicity, you are not free to go where you want. So if you are Muslim for instance you could be banned from attending the conference.
- woodpanel 7y ago> the territory is zoned Haifa is not zoned. It's inside Israel, which once entered you're free to wander around. > there are military checkpoints Given the threat posed by terrorism, blaming the Israelis for having military checkpoints on their land borders is kind of disengenious > depending on your ethnicity Arabic is an official language of Israel. 20% of its people are Muslim. I've never witnessed a security check where men wearing a Taqiyah were treated different. Please ride the Jerusalem tram, which is packed almost 50/50 with orthodox jews and orthodox muslims and tell me, this is an Apartheit-state and not a place of civic order. > So if you are Muslim for instance you could be banned from attending the conference. No, you're not. As the place of the conference is Haifa, once you've managed to pass border-customs at the airport your movement is unrestriced inside Israel.
