Deteriorating Conditions For Israeli Arab Citizens

E-mail Print PDF

Rahat is the third largest Arab city in Israel and the largest Bedouin settlement in Israel.In the past year, discriminatory legislation institutionalized inequality, political delegitimization, and incitement against them. Also, their needs and rights have gone unaddressed, including violent racist incidents, at times involving killings.

On July 2, 2009, Housing Minister, Ariel Atias, advocated for preventing Arab Israeli dispersion in various parts of the country, saying: "I see (it) as a national duty to prevent the spread of a population that, to say the least, does not love the State of Israel." Speaking to the Israel Bar Association, he stressed that "populations that should not mix are spreading (to Jewish areas) I don't think appropriate."

The term "demographic threat" is used to further government policy favoring separatism and exclusivity, rather than assuring equal rights for all citizens. As a result, Jewish only cities have been created, like Nevatim and Habahadim in the Negev, areas for military use with only Jewish housing.
