Overview #

This booklet powerfully debunks the false equivalence often drawn between Israel and apartheid South Africa. By comparing founding principles, civil rights, political systems, and social realities, it illustrates how Israel is a vibrant, diverse democracy committed to equal rights for all its citizens—regardless of ethnicity or religion—unlike South Africa’s brutal segregationist regime. A clear, visual guide for understanding the difference between true apartheid and a pluralistic society.
