Transcribed from the clipping
“Over 75,000 Palestinian Israeli citizens live in unrecognized villages… While the Arabs in the new state were made citizens in 1948, they lived under a Military Administration.”
Context added by this archive
Mark Frey, writing from Arab al-Na’im in the Galilee for an Oklahoma paper. It sets Israel’s declaration of independence, promising complete equality of social and political rights, against a village with no recognition. The only clipping in this archive that names the unrecognized villages as a category, and it uses the phrase Palestinian-Israelis to do it.
