Sure, the law may appear to be equal for all legal members of society, but that doesn't mean in practice it works like that. The settlement doctrine, removal of Arabic as an official language, and language specifically about Israel being Jewish that were passed in 2018 are also instances where the law actually does diverge for Arab citizens.

- lawnchair_larry 5y ago“Israel’s Apartheid” is not a thing, unless you mean the fact that there are zero jews in Palestinian territory. Yes, “the squad” lied to you again.
