The Center for the Study of Political Islam International) (CSPII) tracks the growth of jihadism and political Islam worldwide. But its new research brief on Islam in Israel shows not only the huge increase of Islamic organizations in the Jewish state, but also ends up proving that calling Israel Islamophobic or practicing "apartheid" is nothing but absurd.

CSPII's detailed analysis of Islamic organizational growth in Israel is drawn from the Israeli Ministry of Justice's official registry. 

They find that there are currently 386 active Islamic organizations registered in Israel, operating across 125 cities and towns. The first was registered in 1952 — four years after Israel's founding, when the state that was supposedly engaged in ethnic cleansing was already registering Muslim charities. The growth since then has been exponential, with more Islamic organizations emerging in the last five years alone than in the entire decade from 2010 to 2020.

The infrastructure numbers are harder to dismiss. There are 126 organizations dedicated specifically to building and maintaining mosques, supporting 252 mosques nationwide. The Israeli government funds more than 100 of those mosques directly (as of 15 years ago) and pays the salaries of their imams. An additional 104 organizations are dedicated to Islamic education and da'wa. Nazareth alone hosts 34 Islamic organizations; Umm al-Fahm has 33.

The "apartheid" framework depends on a picture of a dominant group systematically denying a subordinate group the right to organize, worship, and build institutions. The data from Israel's own government registry makes that picture impossible to maintain. Apartheid South Africa did not fund Black churches or pay the salaries of their clergy. It did not register and protect hundreds of civil society organizations built around Black religious identity. Israel does all of this for its Muslim citizens — and has been doing it continuously since the early 1950s.

Bigotry exists everywhere, including Israel But occasional acts of discrimination— almost all from individuals — is not apartheid, it is not genocide, it is not "Jewish supremacy." Giving it those titles is propaganda. 

The facts stubbornly refuse to support the lies.
