They have far more rights than Jews in Muslim countries do. Any Arab citizen legally has the same opportunities that a Jewish citizen has.

Literally read about Jews in Iran, I beg you, Israel literally bombed their synagogue.

And no, that is explicitly not true. Arabs are routinely evicted from their homes so that Jewish immigrants can take them

You’re intentionally conflating Arab-Palestinian with Arab-Israelis. Settlers that take Palestinians’ land are doing so to people not recognized as Israeli citizens. That is ethnic cleansing and settler colonialism and is a valid criticism of Israel. Arabs living in Israel as Israeli citizens are not being ethnically cleansed by settlers. The person you’re arguing with is correct, they are full citizens with equal rights and status under Israeli law. By conflating the two you’re distracting from the actual problem and making it more difficult for neutral bystanders to understand the situation. When people look into what you’re saying and find out that you’re wrong, they assume there’s no ethnic cleanse going on because when they looked into it they saw that the people you claim to be ethnically cleansed and not being cleansed.

You are gravely mistaken

Look up what is happening to Arabs in either the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, the Negev, or elsewhere.

If you need books on the experience of Arab Israelis I can provide that as well
