The USA famously took similar security measures when president Roosevelt signed executive order 9066 which exiled all Japanese Americans within a certain “exclusion zone”. Executive Order 9066 is now considered one of US’s heinous human rights violations. After WW2 the victims of executive order 9066 were given the right of return, in 1948 Harry Truman signed an act giving the victims reparations, and in 1988 Ronald Reagan signed a formal apology. This was an act of segregation. Roosevelt claiming it was a security measure did not make this excusable, or otherwise justifiable. Civilians have rights, even when territory is occupied. In fact, it is the responsibility of the occupying power to give the occupied civilians protections, and preserve their human rights. Israel may be claiming these are security measures, and Israel may be correct in their claims, however, what they are doing is still crimes against humanity. If they want to secure their own citizens, they must do so without stripping human rights away from their occupied civilians. But anyway, there is a whole Wikipedia article which explains this much better than me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_and_apartheid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel_and_apartheid
