I agree with your observation that the Israeli government appears to be applying their version of the old Ottoman Empire’s codes of differentiation of Christians, Jews and Muslims.
Most readers may be unaware of such.
My refugee family lived under Ottoman rule, and was ethnically cleansed under the auspices of the British Empire.
I congratulate you for mentioning that system.
Of course, in the USA, we had the “whites only” and “coloreds only” rules well into the second half of the 20th Century.
