Civil rights in Israel depend on more than citizenship alone. (The Israeli Ministry of Interior requires all residents to provide an original birth certificate, an original marital status certificate, and original proof of religion in order to receive the required national ID card.) The civil rights of all residents in the State of Israel are different depending on citizenship, ethnicity, and religion. — Joel Beinin, Emeritus Professor of Middle East History, Stanford University, 2023
