    Israel:The Massive Gerrymander.

    Israel Population
    Jews...........6.100 mil
    Arabs..........1.689 mil (can vote in Israeli elections)
    Others.........0.350 mil
    Total............8.149 mil

    Palestinians:
    West Bank & Gaza...4.55 mil (cannot vote in Israeli Elections)

    If Palestinians were allowed to vote in Israel then the population mix would be:
    Jews..............6.1 million
    Arabs............ 6.239 million *

    While Israel spruiks its status as the Middle East's only democracy, this "democracy"
    is based on a massive gerrymander as shown above. Rather than Palestinians seeking Country
    status for the Palestinian Territories, they should be simply insisting on their democratic right
    to vote in Israeli elections thereby highlighting the Israeli Apartheid regime.

    Cheers
