Arab Christians are third-class citizens at best whether the nation is Egypt or Israel

I doubt that.

I listened to a feature the other day on German radio (not known for being friendly to Israel). The subject was an Israeli Arab citizen, who is a top executive with Bank Leumi, Israel's biggest bank. He lives in a big house and he and his family are doing quite well for themselves. While he had complaints about the status of Christian Arab citizens in Israel, he said that he preferred being an Israeli citizen a million times over living in a Muslim-ruled Palestine.

You are correct about living in Israel, under the rule of laws is much better than any of the Arab countries. However, you must not fool yourself by thinking that a Jewish Israeli citizen is equal to an Arab one. Again Christian Arabs are misstreated by both the Moslems and the Jews, though not as bad from the Jewish side.
