Steve Shaw BS: Six Day War 50 Years On (174* d) RE: BS: Six Day War 50 Years On 10 Jun 17


I was in a hurry. I could have mentioned much lower life expectancy, much higher infant mortality, the fact that over a half of Arab families in Israel are defined as living in poverty, then there's the workplace discrimination based on the fact that Arabs haven't done military service, even in jobs unrelated to the military. And don't get me started on the tens of thousands of Bedouin Arabs living in "unrecognised villages" in the Negev (most of which predate 1948) who endure lack of water, electricity, sanitation and medical facilities. There have been no new Arab townships since 1948 despite a massive increase in population and the existing Arab areas generally endure poor infrastructure such as unmade roads and lack of medical facilities. Contrast that with those lovely new settlements exclusively for Jews.
