Abstract
Palestinian Arabs, citizens of the state of Israel (Palestinians hereafter), have turned into an involuntary minority in Israel following the 1948 war, referred to as the “Independence War” by Israeli Jews and as “The Nakba” (“Day of the Catastrophe”) by Palestinians. The outcomes of that war were so dramatic and significant that the Jewish-Palestinian relations and the socioeconomic and political status of Palestinians in Israel even more than 60 years after the war are still very much influenced by that event.
