Democratic false

Democratic false
Although the Palestinian citizens of Israel constitute about 20% of the population of the state, but they constitute only 5.5% of the workforce in the State Services as statistics year 2003. This has landed the proportion of women employed in the service of Palestinian state from 2% to 1.7% in the year 2003, and arrived in 2004 accounted for as members of the governing boards of state companies to 1.3% only. It is clear from this that the participation of Arab women in the workforce compared to Israel a few Jewish women, according to official statistics, and therefore this means that there is profound differences between Jewish women and Arab women in various areas.
For example, the percentage of Arab women working in the field of education for Jewish women (38% of Arab women compared with 19% of Jewish Women), but on the contrary this area of financial and business services, which amounts to 7% to 17% compared to Arabiyat of Jewish Women. The reason for that is that Arab women in Israel face a major challenge resulting from being a minority in Israel on the one hand, on the other hand is as women in traditional Arab society. Of course, this thing has enabled employers in Israel from discrimination in the selection, not only this, but imposed on workers wages and conditions of a few bad falls short of standards set by the state in international human rights law.
Perhaps the distinction between Arab women and Jewish women in the workplace shows clearly through their work in the area of government services, where they account in this area 97.3%, 82% of whom works at the Ministry of Health, this does not operate any Arab woman in the following ministries: Science, Foreign , Internal security, semiconductors, infrastructure, construction, housing, tourism and media. Only staff member working in Arab and one each from the Ministry of Religions and the Ministry of Environmental Quality, and there are only two Arab women working in the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.
As for the work of women in the judiciary, the statistics of 2003 indicate that the percentage of women employed in this area amounted to 40.9%, including 198 Jewish women (80.2%), six Arab women only (2.4%).
As in the educational field in Israel, we see that there is a big difference between the education of Arab women and Jewish peers. For example, the illiteracy rate among Arab women and 14.7%, while not exceeding 4.5% among Jewish women according to statistics of 2003. The university education, we note that the percentage is lower than in other population groups, for example, 7.1% of Arab women to teach 16 years of study or more, either Jewish, who teach the same period of study at the rate of 19%.
As in the health field, we believe that the percentage of the average age of Arab women at least four years for Jewish women, and of course this is due lack of access to appropriate diagnostic tests for women's health issues, which are less than their Jewish, he An opinion poll conducted by the European Union and the assistance of the Ministry Israeli Health, that 31% of Palestinian Arab women in Israel have examined the detection of breast cancer at least once, compared with 49.5% of Jewish women. That is aside from the failures of health in villages not recognized by the government until 2001, which was where the opening 6 clinics for mothers and children in every one where the doctor and nurse, after lawsuit filed by these villages to the Supreme Court of Justice in Israel.
Finally we can say is through these statistics that Israel distinction between its citizens on the basis of nationality, and therefore distinguish between Arab women and Jewish women, because their relationship to Arab citizens have is the relationship between the occupation, especially as they believed that their feelings and their feelings much different from the feelings and sentiments of the Jews. Therefore, large segments of Israel's calls for them not to develop, has endorsed this Moshe France "a leading figure in Likud, former Minister of Defense" while stressed that the integration of Arabs in Israel mean that they have a sense of belonging to the State and the Jewish character, as well as a sense of the importance of the Jewish experience times of Nazi persecution.
