The Apartheid Reality - compare with France

<Israeli Apartheid And Terrorism

Part 1, The Reality Edward S. Herman

"If Jews in France were required to carry identification cards designating them Jews (even though French citizens), could not acquire land or buy or rent homes in most of the country, were not eligible for service in the armed forces, and French law banned any political party or legislation calling for equal rights for Jews, would France be widely praised in the United States as a "symbol of human decency" (New York Times) and paragon of democracy? Would there be a huge protest if France, in consequence of such laws and practices, was declared by a UN majority to be a racist state?"

They're talking about citizens, here, folks. A class of citizen who cannot buy or rent homes, etc.
