Palestinians in Israel

A study of Palestinian Arabs as a minority group in Israel.

This paper examines how the Palestinian people have met with many instances of discrimination in Israel, leading to their entrapment as a dominated people. It looks at how steps are being taken by the international community and organizations to provide both a state for the Palestinian people, as well as greater rights and power within the current Jewish state.

Conclusion
“The economic disparities between the Palestinian Arabs and the Jews evidence a clear discrimination taking place against the Palestinians. Without economic capital, there is little hope for change for the Arabs in Israel especially since their economic disadvantage is cemented in by a lack of representation within the Israeli government. However, over the past several years many Arab nations have been pouring funds into Palestine in support of an independent Palestinian state. Unfortunately, much of this money has gone to the purchase of weapons, the funding of terrorist organizations, and into the pockets of the Palestinian leaders.”
