And if Palestine was a country, which it's not, that would be a problem. But the situation is that people who live in the OTs are stateless, and when they commit crimes in Israel they can be held without trial and at some point be deported back to the OTs.

It's the same everywhere. Palestinians have been expelled everywhere, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq etc. Maybe ask yourself why.

Eta ask yourself whether undocumented people from central and south America recieve "due process" when they commit crimes in the US. The answer is no, they do not recieve constitutional protections. Is that American Apartheid?
