Have you ever heard someone say that Israel acts as an apartheid state? You may have come across this political phrase, a policy of governmental oppression best known from South Africa, being used as a smokescreen to describe the relationship between Israelis and Palestinian Arabs living in the West Bank and Gaza. In this episode of The Israeli-Palestinian Context we uncover how this misappropriated connection between apartheid and Israel came to be and find out the true history behind the Israeli government’s relationship with its one million Arab citizens.
