    If the ban is on Israeli Nationality it only afects Israeli Jews as per the Israeli Constitution only Jews (in fact, any Jew no matter were born) have a right to Israeli Nationality.

    If it’s per Israeli Citizenship (which, in Israel - almost uniquelly in the World - is separate from Nationality), then you do have a point and even then, most Palestians born in the Occupied Territories (which include Jerusalem) do not have Israeli Citizenship as they have no natural right of birth to it and must apply, with most applications being denied.

    That often used “there are 2 million Palestinians in Israel” cherry-picked piece of information (usually used to deny that Israel is an Appartheid state, so congrats for using it differently here) is nowhere near the full information and presented without the rest is deceitful as such presentation relies on people thinking it’s like in their own country so “being a citizen in Israel must mean the same as my their own country” when in fact Israel is very, VERY special in that regard and segregates people by religion using that unique separation of Nationality and Citizenhip.
