Yes. This is an open secret. All Arabs know this...but few will admit it publicly. I have a Palestinian friend who fled from discrimination in Jordan to Israel where she found sanctuary. My family in Egypt told me not to say I was half-Palestinian or ppl would treat me badly.https://twitter.com/Claire_Voltaire/status/1151898584226205696 …
Meanwhile there are many Palestinians in Israeli govt. I don’t think it’s a good thing. You never feel fully comfortable when you’re a guest in someone’s home. In America and in Canada, my dad was immediately treated w respect and easily became a full citizen as all others.

This thread was about the fact that you are treated as a second class citizen, not about the reason why you left. Of course it’s terrible that you had to leave. It’s also terrible that countless Jews were expelled from all over the Arab world...but we can only move forward.
