When confronted with the statement that Israel is an “apartheid state,” many Zionists object to the characterization and point to the freedoms enjoyed by Israeli Arabs who can vote and even serve in the Knesset. As Aaron Maté points out, however, Israeli Arabs represent just a fraction of the Arabs living within the Israeli government’s domain, and Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza pointedly do NOT enjoy any of those freedoms. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss with Aaron how claims of Israel as a democracy fail to tell a major part of the story.
