Looking for patterns is perhaps justified if one looks at patterns from both sides. One interesting pattern is that every Israeli government since 1967 has expanded the occupied territories. A second pattern: besides expelling the bulk of the Arab inhabitants of Palestine, Israel has also consistently harassed the United Nations observers and other personnel stationed along the Armistice Demarcation Lines: It has assassinated the first United Nations mediator and his military aide; it has detained some truce observers; it has militarily occupied and illegally searched the headquarters of United Nations personnel; and it has boycotted meetings of the Mixed Armistice commissions? A third: Israel has additionally imposed a system of apartheid upon the Arabs, who stayed in their homeland More than 90 percent of these Arabs live in "security zones"; they alone live under martial law, restricting their freedom to travel from village to village or from town to town; their children are denied equal opportunities for education; and they are denied decent opportunities for work, and the right to receive "equal pay for equal work".
