Israel's affirmative action program for its Arab citizens

Israeli Ministry for Minority Affairs on Wednesday announced a government plan to invest NIS 800 million (about $215 million) in Israel's minority population, as part of a perennial project.

The plan, signed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister for Minority Affairs Avishay Braverman, will invest the funds during the next five years.

The investment will focus on four main realms: Occupational development, infrastructure, upgrading the transportation network and construction.

As part of the plan, some NIS 220 million ($60 million) will be invested in occupational development, which will also include investments in local economic infrastructures and upgrading transportation networks in and outside of the towns.

NIS 100 million ($27 million) will go toward public land construction and an additional NIS 316 million ($85 million) will be invested into private plots.

NIS 150 million ($40 million) will be used to promote anti violence.

Yep, sounds like apartheid to me...
