Human Rights
Apartheid
Whether they reside in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip, or in Israel, Palestinians are discriminated against in a variety of forms and denied equal individual rights on the grounds of their descent, national and ethnic origin. These policies and practices of segregation and domination bear striking similarities to those adopted in apartheid-era South Africa, and its illegal occupation of Namibia.
