    President Biden urged Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, which aims to bolster police accountability and ban certain maneuvers that have led to the deaths of Black Americans.

No - Israeli Arab citizens share identical rights to Israeli Jewish citizens. How exactly does that meet the definition of Apartheid? Palestinians in the West Bank are subject to varying levels of Israeli control because of Israel's successful defense of itself against Jordanian attack during the Six Day War.
