I agree that the actions in the occupied territories are oppressive and terrible. I was referring to the actions within Israel itself, towards Israeli Arab Citizens. Which shows that the oppressive actions is not based on ethnicity or religion, it's based on fear.
Thing is, that fear is taught in schools, a large part if not most of the Israeli population are too young to remember the holocaust, so this is propagation of fear on a national scale, and to what end?
Additional, yes there are discriminatory laws within Israel, such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_citizenship_law
And https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/7/27/israeli-protests-ca...
... and an opportunistic land-grab on a huge scale at the expense of Palestinians.
Ethnicity and nationality is not the same thing. Oppressive actions can easily be between two ethnically similar, but nationally different groups.
