My claims regarding the history of Arab violence against the Jews in the area are not false.
This 'Arab violence' against the Jews started only after various Jewish militia groups were fighting Palestinians there.

I've seen many videos of those testimonies and other archival footage on Palestine.

Some would argue whether Israel is a democracy for all its citizens or only Jews. I've heard different stories from African Jews in Israel (a limited democracy for them).

Israel should have included all inhabitants of the land, instead of killing or displacing them.
Ben-Gurion did disservice to Israel, imo.
Same with Ariel Sharon and his policy of settlements that took off.
All this was bound to create animosity and enemies among Palestinians and Arabs.

Look where Israel is today - very costly wars - one after another, lots of unrest, anxiety among Israeli Jews, etc.

And we see no end in sight.
Only if they had accepted all Palestinians instead, well before and after 1948, life would have been much different for the Jews.

"Some would argue".....you're one of them, it seems.

All Israeli citizens enjoy full and equal rights, despite what you claim to have "heard".....and if you dispute that, you should give substantiated examples.
On the other hand, I can easily give examples of the equality that all Israeli citizens have.
