Most Israeli Arabs Don't Identify as Palestinians
(CAMERA) Sean Durns - A mere fraction of Arab citizens of Israel prefers to exclusively be called "Palestinians." A 2020 survey by Tel Aviv University found that 23% define themselves as "Israeli" and 51% self-identify as "Israeli Arab." Only 7% choose to call themselves "Palestinians." But this hasn't stopped foreign reporters and newspapers from telling Israeli Arabs what they should be called. With growing frequency, many news organizations are now referring to Israeli Arabs as "Palestinians." Further, polls have consistently shown that many Israeli Arabs wouldn't want to be part of a Palestinian state should one be created.
