Hamad said that Palestinians are the victims of the occupation, therefore no one should blame them for the events of October 7 or anything else, adding: "Everything we do is justified."

According to Israel's Central Bureau of Statistics, in 2008, of Israel's 7.3 million people, 75.6 percent were Jews of any background.[39] Among them, 70.3 percent were Sabras (born in Israel), mostly second- or third-generation Israelis, and the rest are olim (Jewish immigrants to Israel)—20.5 percent from Europe and the Americas, and 9.2 percent from Asia and Africa, including the Arab countries.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mizrahi_Jews says 3.2 million in Israel https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel says Israels population is 9.8 million of which 73% are jewish. So 3.2 million Mizrahi Jews (oriental) of 5.8 Israel Jews. I presume the rest must be Ashkenazi Jews (european). All i'm saying is the categorization in indigeious and settlers isn't all that easy.

\edit: Sorry, You are not the person I replied to. So thank you for the facts-delivery!
