The speaker contends that the situation in Israel cannot be classified as apartheid because the disparity in treatment is based on citizenship status rather than racial domination.

“what you've just described then is not apartheid because I just gave you the exact same racial group one is a citizen and one isn't and they're not being and they're being treated differently on the basis of their citizenship”

The speaker claims that Israel's legal treatment of Palestinians in the West Bank versus Israelis meets the international definition of apartheid.

“the crime against humanity of aarthi is perpetrated when particular serious human rights violations are committed with the purpose of establishing and maintaining a system of Domination by one racial group over another and systematically oppressing them”
