Israel has imposed an Apartheid state in the Occupied Territories

Israel is the new Apartheid. The Occupied Territories operate in a similar way to South Africa under Apartheid. Palestinians are enclosed into ghettos, similar to the nominally self-governing homelands in Apartheid South Africa

Israel is running an Apartheid, racist state in the Occupied Territories.

Israel's treatment in the occupied territories is no different from South Africa under Apartheid. There are two classes of people, Israelis and Palestinians. Palestians cannot travel on certain roads, it cannot enter many areas. Palestinians are deprived of water and land for Israeli use. Palestinians face curfews, military checkpoints, harrasment and restrictions on their movement at the hands of the Israeli military.

Palestinian in the Occupied Territories are effectively enclosed into ghettos, similar to the nominally self-governing homelands in Apartheid South Africa.

Palestinians do not have Israeli citizenship, and cannot vote in Israeli elections, and yet they are ruled by Israel.

Israeli is the new Apartheid. Santions were imposed on South Africa. When will sancitons be imposed on Israel?
