Apartheid in Israel is primarily along cultural lines between Jews and Arabs, not racial. Both groups span the entire racial spectrum. Nice try. You are a master propagandist.

I am very familiar with the demographic breakdown of Israeli society. Culture has many factors. Though they are from Arab countries, they are now Israeli Jews, and obviously a very different/opposing identity than the Israeli Arabs/Palestinians. BTW, many of the most anti-Arab Israelis are Sephardic Jews from Arab countries so your examples are rather meaningless.

So let me get your contention straight. Israel isn't a racist society, it's anti-Arab, and many of the anti-Arabs are Arab Jews but my examples of Arabs in important positions in society don't disprove the aparthied- which isn't racist- but culturally anti-Arab by Jews who are culturally Arab?
Is that about right? Makes sense.

No. My main position is that apartheid in Israel is not based on phenotypical racial lines, but rather on ethnic/cultural/religious faultlines between Israeli Jews and Arabs. Yes, there are a few Arabs in high positions in Israeli society (Druze and Bedouins are not a good example as they are small minorities who have been co-opted into the Israeli state), but there is undeniably heavy institutionalized discrimination against Arabs in Israeli society. Whether you feel it is justified or not, that's your position, but to deny it exists at all, is a denial of reality. Again, you're a master propagandist.

1. I don't believe Palestinians are really Arabs I believe they're Israelites like Jews.
2. There's remarkable little discrimination considering the state of war and terrorism between Jews and Arabs and Palestinians for the last 66+ years.
3. Israel is held to a higher standard than you apply to Israel's neighbours.
4. Apartheid means "was a system of racial segregation" but Jews and Palestinians are the SAME race (with different admixture but sharing 50% common ancestry).

It doesnt matter what you believe. They are two different ethnic groups and in deep conflict.1. I don't believe Palestinians are really Arabs I believe they're Israelites like Jews.
This is not true.2. There's remarkable little discrimination considering the state of war and terrorism between Jews and Arabs and Palestinians for the last 66+ years.
No, I don't. Most Arab countries are deeply anti-Jewish because of the advent of modern Zionism and disenfranchisement of the Palestinians. Those are the root causes but I acknowledge that they are deeply anti-Jewish.3. Israel is held to a higher standard than you apply to Israel's neighbours.
You can call it Apartheid or whatever you want. It doesn't mask the reality.4. Apartheid means "was a system of racial segregation" but Jews and Palestinians are the SAME race (with different admixture but sharing 50% common ancestry).
Basically you are a Jewish nationalist and quite adept at propaganda, as well as a troll. This conversation is rather pointless.
I'm gonna end it on this note to reflect the credibility of your thread.

Muslim societies were anti-Jewish since Mohammed.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisem...teenth_century...pogroms spread through the Middle East and North Africa: Aleppo (1850, 1875), Damascus (1840, 1848, 1890), Beirut (1862, 1874), Dayr al-Qamar (1847), Jaffa (1876), Jerusalem (1847, 1870 and 1895), Cairo (1844, 1890, 1901–02), Mansura (1877), Alexandria (1870, 1882, 1901–07), Port Said (1903, 1908), and Damanhur (1871, 1873, 1877, 1891).
While antisemitism has increased in the wake of the Arab-Israeli conflict, there were pogroms against Jews prior to the foundation of Israel, including Nazi-inspired pogroms in Algeria in the 1930s, and attacks on the Jews of Iraq and Libya in the 1940s. In 1941, 180 Jews were murdered and 700 were injured in the anti-Jewish riots known as the Farhud.[16] Four hundred Jews were injured in violent demonstrations in Egypt in 1945 and Jewish property was vandalized and looted. In Libya, 130 Jews were killed and 266 injured. In December 1947, 13 Jews were killed in Damascus, including 8 children, and 26 were injured. In Aleppo, rioting resulted in dozens of Jewish casualties, damage to 150 Jewish homes, and the torching of 5 schools and 10 synagogues. In Yemen, 97 Jews were murdered and 120 injured.[14]
The Israelite Palestinians have had their identity usurped by foreign corrupt clans;
