Introduction
Inequality in Israel takes many forms. Some of the major fault-lines that
divide Israeli society, creating relatively privileged and deprived groups, are
(Ashkenazim) versus (Mizrahim); men versus women; Israel-born Jews (Sabar)
versus new immigrants (Olim); Orthodox versus secular Jews; rural versus
urban dwellers; rich versus poor; left-wing versus right-wing supporters; and
gay versus straight people. This report focuses on inequalities between Jewish
citizens of Israel—the majority—and Palestinian Arab citizens of Israel, a
national, non-immigrant minority living in its historical homeland
