These are Jewish-only settlements. There is a dual legal system within them. People have been thrown off these lands. There is an absolute separation and gap regarding the living conditions of these Israeli settlers and those Palestinian people. There is an absolute separation in respect of political rights, home demolitions and collective punishment. If all this is accepted, it is difficult to see how Israel is not operating apartheid rule - even if we just deal with these particular areas. Could I get a response on this?
