Let's not forget Hamas was chosen by the good people of Gaza.

Israel is not an apartheid state and anyone who thinks it is needs to acquaint themselves with what apartheid is. Israel does not discriminate by ethnicity. Arab Israelis have equal rights under the law. No Israeli laws dictate segregation, not in education, not in medical treatment and Jews and Arabs live alongside each other in many cities in Israel. Arabs and Israelis have equal citizenship, either can vote and hold office; an Arab party is currently part of the government coalition. There are also Arab Muslims serving in the IDF. Arab citizens have freedom of movement in Israel, there are no laws restricting Arabs from living in any part of Israel. Mixed marriages are not against the law.
