Israeli Arabs: 'Unequal citizens'

The narrow streets and alleyways of the old Arab market in Nazareth in northern Israel used to be packed with tourists and shoppers.

But that was in the good old days, before the start of the Palestinian uprising or intifada. Now, five years on, business is still suffering.

"People just didn't come back," one stall holder tells me.

His friend adds: "Some tourists come, but they stay elsewhere, they eat elsewhere. Just a quick look at Nazareth and then they are gone."
