(Some background information: Palestinians who managed to stay in Palestine after the creation of ‘Israel’ in 1948 became citizens of ‘Israel’ in 1952, and they’re supposed to be considered citizens of ‘Israel’ who are to be treated ‘equally’ just like any other Israeli.)
The poverty rate among ‘Israeli’ Arabs [Palestinians] in 2015 is 59.2%, versus 25.9% for Jewish Israelis
And the average individual income for a Palestinian is $288.23 USD while it’s $711.04 USD for Jewish Israelis.
And Israel spends $1631.80 USD on a Jewish Israeli student while it only spends $1075.70 USD on a Palestinian student.
And Israeli Jewish men who seek employment witness an employment rate of 80.8% while for Palestinian men the rate is 74.8% [note that they only get employed because of their cheap wages], and for Israeli Jewish women it’s 69.7% while for Palestinian women it’s 30.5%

Political propaganda, as alive and well in the 21st century as ever.
On September 11th 1973, US-backed General Pinochet overthrew the democratically elected leader of Chile, Salvadore Allende. Pinochet ordered an air strike on the Presidential Palace, labor activists and famous folk guitarists were rounded up for torture, disappeared, and killed.
Pinochet converted the national football stadium into a detention facility like Guantanamo Bay. Chile’s economy was turned into a plantation for the 1%, as inequality and poverty skyrocketed under the imposed Milton Friedman-style economic model.
Over 40,000 Chileans became victims of Pinochet’s terror. In response, the Nixon administration committed more money, more training, more torture equipment.
The world didn’t begin on September 11th, 2001. Rather, for the first time in modern history, Americans were visited by the same violence the US has imposed since its creation.
In Chile, the US murdered tens of thousands and impoverished millions. This wasn’t America’s first foray in international terrorism, nor would it be the last.
The United States security state is a terrorist and a plague on the people of the world.
