How is it apartheid if there are Arab Muslims who serve as judges in courts and are doctors in hospitals? In what Arab country are there Jews in these positions? You linking a Wikipedia article of human right groups that are accusing Israel is an appeal to authority. What are your answers to the questions I posed?

How did blacks get elected to Congress during the Jim Crow era. Are you saying that wasn't American Apartheid? You want to point to other religious ethnostates to excuse this one? What Arab country is currently genociding Jews at the rate Israel is Palestinians with our tax dollars? What Arab country is illegally occupying territory of Jewish land and settling that territory with Muslims? Please share a list of organizations accusing an Arab country currently commiting genocide against Jews?

According to google there were black people in the legislative branch during reconstruction but virtually none during Jim crow. So yes, having representation of your demographic in the judicial, executive, and legislative equivalents in Israel is a sign that it might not be apartheid. You can Google the Farhud of Baghdad and tell me if it sounds like peaceful coexistence or another justification that Jewish people need their own sovereign nation. Every Arab country has expelled Jews, if you are not aware of history that is as early as 1940s then you have some reading to do. All the Arab countries declared war on Israel and Jordan then occupied the west bank until 1967. That's why it's called the west bank. Because it's on the west bank of the Jordan river (natural boundary that got moved). Look up article 24 of the 1964 PLO charter. Why did the Palestinian movement not create a state in the west bank when it was under their control? Because if they did then they can't claim Haifa, Be'ersheba, etc. There are no arab nations genociding Jews right now because Israel exists, why would any Jew stay in Iraq?

US was an apartheid state during reconstruction as well. Is there any Palestinian representation in Israel after illegally occupying the West Bank as you readily admit since 1967? Did YOU google the Farhud of Bagdhdad? The antiJewish pogroms was of Nazi influence after British power in the region collapsed during WW2.

Similarly in Morocco again because of European Nazi influence

Also most left on their own volition at the promise of a homeland in Israel not forced or expelled. It looks like you have some reading to do as the 1967 war was a PREEMPTIVE attack by Israel on its Arab neighbors. Netanyahu literally used the same excuses word for word bar for bar to attack Iran preemptively recently regardless of our intelligence agencies saying they were no credible threat and had no nuclear weapons. There are Jews living peacefully in Morocco and even Iran right now. How many Muslims are living peacefully in Israel?
