On Thursday, a Palestinian friend wrote on Facebook: “Apartheid is when you’re afraid to go out to work because you’re an Arab.”

Palestinians in Israel have been in a state of terror for days. Countless images and videos show settler mobs and Israeli police attacking Palestinians.

It all started when Palestinians took to the streets to rise against their forced displacement in the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood in East Jerusalem and the attacks on people praying in the Al-Aqsa mosque. The protests were unprecedented, spreading across numerous cities and villages including the so-called ‘mixed’ cities, where both Palestinians and Israelis live.
