Though founded as a Jewish state, in order to serve a sanctuary for a people who have faced persecution for millennium, Israel has never exiled anyone on the basis of their religion nor has it prevented the free practice of any religion within its borders. It has citizens of every religious group, including Muslims, Christians, Buddhists, etc.
The calumny of it being an 'apartheid' state is merely a lie that pro-Palestinian, or more to the point, anti-Israel fanatics have latched on to to attempt to de-legitimize and eliminate a non-Muslim entity in what they want to be an exclusively Islamic-ruled Middle East.
But to understand the true nature of the type of apartheid that already exists within Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, Sudan and more, the words of the Palestinian Authority's Ambassador to the US are particularly informative.
During a breakfast briefing hosted by the Christian Science Monitor on Tuesday, Maen Rashid Areikat reiterated his call to create a Jew-free Palestinian state.
As school season has just resumed, and another "Israeli Apartheid Week" is on the horizon for university campuses, this is a reminder of the hypocrisy and dishonesty of the people who perpetrate that lie. It is more proof that the definition of Israeli Apartheid Week really is,
"the week in which the Western campus Hitlerjugend, Marxist-Leninists, and Islamo-fascists unite to demonstrate against and call for the destruction of the only Middle East country that is NOT an apartheid regime."

EYE ON A CRAZY PLANET
As I suggested online this week; When is Israel Apartheid week, again? It would be nice to see a few University football teams say, "I aint gonna play Varsity Stadium", etc. Take a stand, become a young man.

Why, they are all about "fighting the occupation" of-course.
And these are the same hypocritical-propagandists who would brand self-defensive anti-terror operations with a falsified "apartheid slur", mind you. All the while multi-racial democratic Israel treats its 20% Arab citizens [eventhough, most Arabs in the area are not really natives... their parents or grandparents immigrated from: Egypt, Syria, etc.] with preferential treatment / affirmative action.
