text: "Palestinian Arabs are far more integrated into Israeli society than Indigenous Canadians are integrated into Canadian society."
  Carr, you've neglected the 4 million Palestinians in the occupied territories, who have no rights (they can be arrested and held without charge indefinitely, for example. As a result, prisoners are now on a hunger strike.).
  Within Israel proper, the better comparison with Palestinians is the French in Canada. Both make up about 20 percent of the population. In Israel, there are serious restrictions on where Palestinians are allowed to live; and people of different religions are not allowed to marry. Israel spends about three times as much on Jewish students as on Palestinian. It's easier for a Jew who has never visited Israel to become an Israeli citizen than it is for a Palestinian refugee to visit. And while Arabic's official status has, in practice, meant very little, Israel is about to strip it of even that.
