In the past, apartheid was only associated with South Africa. Now, it’s a label that some attach to Israel’s treatment of Palestinians. So what is apartheid? How did it work in South Africa? And why is it now being used in the context of Israel? #AJStartHere with Sandra Gathmann explains.

There are approx. 2 million arabs in lsrael who have the same freedom as any other citizen.
Now tell us, how many Jews have a right to live and vote in Qatar or Gaza?
The cruel Regime israel must be stopped.
Not sure how 75% of a country doesnt have a spine to stand up for itself. Thats weird.
You failed to account that palestinian jews or the jews who lived there and not from europe also wanted to have a real israeli state and not just be a minority in a muslim country.
Number Palestinians dead: 40k. That's genocide. Number Ukrainians dead: 70k. Oh, that's just normal.
Apartheid applies to same citizens of one nation and not between enemies who wants to annihilate each other if they can.
So the United States of America is a massive apartheid state then, time to clean house
So Israel is accused of practicing apartide.. While the rest of the Arab countries practices blatant discrimination against Christians. Where is the outcry in that?
Calling out inhumane practices is important, but should be done evenly or it will be seen as hypocritical.
More unmitigated BS from AL Jazeera. What a shock?
Apartheid is always born out of fear, a minority fearing the majority. The minority is always legitimised by those preaching freedom & democracy but who practice the opposite. Apartheid survives through oppression supported by legitimised violence. Throughout history good always wins, without this natural law mankind would have destroyed itself centuries ago. It’s just a matter of time before Palestine wins, Israel looses, and then we will no doubt experience the next chapter of apartheid somewhere else in this world. Will we ever learn??
Allah blesses people who have the thinking of Mark Twain William James and yes Talmud
Jews with power is a bad thing
Yes, my zeide Zionist was part of a cruel, vicious criminal group
But being under powerful Jews …
I'm Jewish I watched TV Everyone is being seduced
🕍is bad😢
What am I supposed to think??
🇮🇱were horrid to Al Jazeera
אין מה לשמוע מאל ג'זירה. שהפולמוסנים יתווכחו איתם. הם במוטים לרעתנו, נעזוב את זה הם אפילו לא צודקים.
Do we really meed to ask this question.
It's why SA will have issues for another 5 or 10 generations. Just because apartheid is over in SA, does not mean the effects are gone
Much worse. It has "evolved" in a genocidal colonial regime.
Israel knows it messed up and they reached a point of no return unless if they can get a puppet like Mandela and make that person the face of peace, so that Palestine's will really behind him and force peace! That won't work, we still don't have land, no economy, no wealth… Apparently our history starts at 1600 , in Africa, as in black people in Africa arrived to a place in Africa around 1600 ! They are victims now, they even go to the US and tell them how they getting victimized.
Why the answer is simple Israel is 1000% an apartheid regime.
Israel is not an apartheid state. Your assumptions are simply wrong because you assume the Gaza and the West Bank are part of Israel. They are not. They are occupied territories, with military rule so all your stories about apartheid don't apply. There are 2 million arabs that are part of Israel with full rights so your story is just textbook missinformation.
if it looks like a duck……
🦄❤️🔥
Under Isreal's own criterior, Isreal itself should not exist.
The current Isreali Government have said, that rewarding Statehood to Terrorists, is unacceptable.
Early Zionist Terrorists attacked, and killed, British forces. In the end, Isreal was given Statehood, and those Terrorist Leaders were given prominant positions in the new Government.
The entire area should be The Palestinian Democracy.
The Balfour Declaration said, "…it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine…".
I 100% agree that Israel is an apartheid state, though I would not use that word for the west bank and gaza — it is arguably worse than apartheid. However I find it really rich that South Africa, which is complicit in its white farmer genocide, criticizes another state.
The truth is that:
Arabs that live within the territory of the state of israel have all equal rights – they can vote, can run for the government (currently 14 parliament members out of 120) and a supreme court judge (Salim Jubran- one of the judges that deal with Bibi’s case at court), soldiers (were volunteered because for them it is not mandatory), doctors (more than 40%) and many many more examples. They also have equal health insurance and get money per child if they in need (like every other citizen), they can fly and do what even they want – arab women, gays, arab trans etc… (unlike other arab states including turkey).
The arabs in the west band are not part of israel and the Fatach runs their needs and corporate with israel to prevent terror attacks ..and israel ineed kills terrorists whose plan to
Kill israelis (found to be one by the israeli intelligence ). Gazan strip- runs by Hamas a terror group (who initiated the war by killing 1300 israelis in music festival and kills gays, take kurdish slaves for their living and also kills any gazan that uprise against them). This is not part of israel (2005 israel totally withdraw from there). However, when they shoot missiles over Ashkelon and southern israel or on TLV l, the israeli army instantly attack them ..and yes with some casualties of “innocent” gazans. The arabs that live under the fatach in the west bank or Hamas in Gazan absolutely have no human rights … their leaders take their money..buys weapons and build terror tunnels ans take a lot of money to their relatives..billions ..in the west bank the situation is better … but also the Palestinian authorities there pays monthly for families that sent their child to kill jews and succeeded and died as a result – named Shahid !
Happy to help😂
I’m South African. Isreali apartheid is a little different. It’s a lot worse
I’m not convinced by this at all. The South African apartheid was explicitly aimed at creating a cheap workforce for the benefit of white Africans, with laws suppressing blacks expanded to ensure compliance and prevent resistance. In the Middle East, Israel’s measures are not aimed at suppression but to prevent terrorism from Palestinians that have inherent hatred towards Jews. Yes there’s suppression but the motive is protection from terrorist death cults like Hamas and Hezbollah. Palestinian Israelis have the same rights in Israel as any citizens. Israel is a successful democratic economy with individual rights, rule of law and protections, so many Palestinians want to go there. But Palestinians have created another Islamic basket case economy with religiously dominated leadership, and resources allocated to terrorist infrastructure rather than economic development. Why do you focus on Israel? Lebanon has explicit discrimination against Palestinians in that country but you don’t look at that. Palestinians can’t vote or own property or work in certain professions. What about individual rights of women, homosexuals or minority groups in Islamic countries? Propaganda is affecting where you’re seeking out evidence of injustice. Simple remedy – Palestinians need to stop hating Jews.
Why do you keep lying and bring only bias news?
The only apartheid is between your brain and reality.
How about iran?😂
Im jewish and im not a zionist, Zionism is not Judaism and Judaism is not Zionism, Israel is a racist apartheid genocidal colonial settler state,
Israel was founded on terrorism,
If i had been born a Palestinian i would be a freedom fighter, period.
The South Africans living under apartheid never launched violent attacks against the white population in order to get freedom. Stop quoting Gandhi and Mandela while ignoring peaceful protests they exemplified
Why the international court still yet to decide? Can't they see it? They should have already punished Israel, especially it's leader satanyahu… 🤦🏽♂️

Well well well, I just notice my country (Myanmar) is an apartheid country. Bamar is the majority of Myanmar, and they forced other ethnic groups to use Bamar language and forced to practice Buddhism even in schools. Minority ethnic groups are not allowed to speak or learn their own languages in schools.
In marriage, if both bride and groom are not Buddhists (even if they are Bamar), you cannot legalised your marriage at the court. So, other people from different faiths have to practice their own marital registration according to their religious guidelines. But however, it is still not legalized in Myanmar's Law.
We may not go extinct due to climate change but I'm pretty sure we will end up in a massive war fighting over resources, and that will take out the majority of civilization along with countless other lifeforms.
The biggest lie channel in the world
The West is next in line
Sounds good to me! Because South Africa and Zimbabwe are so much better now after apartheid
Because it IS an apartheid state. Those who deny it, don't want to see it.
