        Arabs in Israel are equal by law. The have representatives in the parliament. I’m not trying to deny that Israel is heavily racist in politics and societal, but so is every other country and every other democracy and it doesn’t make Israel not a democracy. Even though it’s democracy is under attack by right wing Likud, but that’s also true for literally every European country.
