Seven of the most commonly used were included in the 2001 survey. They range from "Israeli" and "Israeli Arab", indicating some degree of identification with Israel to "Palestinian," which rejects Israeli identification and wholeheartedly identifies with the Palestinian people. ...<br /> According to the author's survey, approximately 66 percent of the sample of Palestinian Israelis identified themselves in whole or in part as Palestinian. The modal identity is "Palestinian in Israel", which rejects "Israeli" as a psychological identification, but accepts it as a descriptive label of geographical location. ... <br /> The establishment-favoured "Israeli Arab" is the second-most popular response in the survey, reflecting its dominance in Israeli social discourse. About 37 percent of respondents identified themselves in some way as "Israeli", double-counting the "Israeli Palestinian" category as both "Israeli" and "Palestinian". Although much smaller than the percentage identifying themselves as Palestinian a nevertheless considerable number include "Israeli" as part of their identity, despite the hardships placed upon them by the Israeli state.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=International+Political+Science+Review&rft.atitle=Identity%2C+Grievances%2C+and+Political+Action%3A+Recent+Evidence+from+the+Palestinian+Community+in+Israel&rft.volume=27%2C+2&rft.pages=167-190&rft.date=2006&rft.au=Sherry+Lowrance&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fuga.academia.edu%2FSherryLowrance%2FPapers%2F82564%2FIdentity_Grievances_and_Political_Action_Recent_Evidence_from_the_Palestinian_Community_in_Israel&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AArab+citizens+of+Israel" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Peleg-29"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-3"><sup><i><b>d</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-4"><sup><i><b>e</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-5"><sup><i><b>f</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Peleg_29-6"><sup><i><b>g</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFIlan_PelegDov_Waxman2011" class="citation book cs1">Ilan Peleg; Dov Waxman (2011). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://books.google.com/books?id=oIi3BK_mT5YC&q=israel's+palestinians"><i>Israel's Palestinians: The Conflict Within</i></a> (illustrated ed.).

As it indicates, this category assumes and constructs two levels of identity. The first is that of Arab. Local Palestinians who remained in what became Israel were designated as Arabs rather than Palestinians. This category refers to the realm of culture and ethnicity and not, clearly, politics. The official government intention was for the "Arab" to designate culture and ethnicity and the "Israeli" - to designate the political identity. ... In addition to the category of Israeli Arabs, other categories include "the minorities" and "the Arab sector," or, in certain sectors the more cryptic appellation of "our cousins." The use of these labels denies the existence of any type of political or national identification and the use of "minority" even denies them a distinct cultural identity. With the emergence of a more critical discourse ... the categorization expands to include Israeli Palestinians, Palestinians in Israel, Palestinian Arabs, Israeli Palestinian Arabs, the Palestinians of 1948, and so on.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=The+Logic+of+Democratic+Exclusion%3A+African+Americans+in+the+United+States+and+Palestinian+citizens+in+Israel&rft.pages=67-68&rft.pub=Lexington+Books&rft.date=2002&rft.isbn=978-0-7391-0442-2&rft.au=Rebecca+B.+Kook&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3Dm8USG9mSa-oC%26q%3D%2522palestinians%2Bof%2B1948%2522%26pg%3DPA68&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AArab+citizens+of+Israel" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-itfiai-40"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-itfiai_40-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-itfiai_40-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-itfiai_40-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-itfiai_40-3"><sup><i><b>d</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-itfiai_40-4"><sup><i><b>e</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.iataskforce.org/sites/default/files/resource/resource-2098.pdf">"Exploring the Topics of Arab Citizens and Jewish-Arab Relations in Israel"</a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>. <i>Israeli Arab Task Force</i>. 2022. <q>Arab citizens' identities are more nuanced than either "Israeli" or "Palestinian."

December 2017. pp. 22, 25, 28. <q>The positions of the participants in the focus groups reflect the strength of Palestinian-Arab identity among Arab citizens and the fact that they do not see a contradiction between Palestinian-Arab national identity and Israeli civic identity. The designation "Israeli-Arab" aroused great opposition in the focus groups, as did Israel's Independence Day. A comparison of views expressed in the focus groups with the general results of the survey points to differences between collective positions and memory and individual feelings and attitudes. The collective position presented in the focus group discussions finds expression in the public sphere and emphasizes the Palestinian national identity.

While they were allowed to become citizens, they were distanced from the center of power because the Israeli state was a <i>Jewish</i> state and Israeli national identity incorporated Jewish symbols and referents. Government officials categorized and labeled them by religion (Muslims, Christians, Druze), region (Galilee Arab, Triangle Arab, Negev Bedouin), and family connections, or <i><a href="/wiki/Hamula" class="mw-redirect" title="Hamula">hamula</a></i> (Haberer 1985, 145). In official and popular culture, they ceased being Palestinians and were re-created as Israeli Arabs or Arab citizens of Israel. Expressing Palestinian identity by displaying the flag, singing nationalist songs, or reciting nationalist poetry was illegal in "Israel" until only very recently. Self-identification as Palestinians, Israeli Palestinians, or Palestinian citizens of Israel has increased since 1967 and is now their preferred descriptor. It was only under the influence of the <i>intifada</i>, however, that many Israeli Palestinians felt secure enough to begin to refer to themselves publicly this way (as opposed to choosing the label <i>Palestinian</i> only in anonymous surveys on identity).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=The+limits+of+coexistence%3A+identity+politics+in+Israel&rft.pages=13&rft.edition=Illustrated&rft.pub=University+of+Michigan+Press&rft.date=2000&rft.isbn=978-0-472-11124-4&rft.aulast=Torstrick&rft.aufirst=Rebecca+L.&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3D6de4vgxNZqMC%26q%3Dbedouin%2Bself-identification%2Bisrael%26pg%3DPA13&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AArab+citizens+of+Israel" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Waxmanp12-45"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Waxmanp12_45-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Waxmanp12_45-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Waxmanp12_45-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFWaxman,_Dov2012" class="citation journal cs1">Waxman, Dov (Winter 2012).

Or, as he sees it, "It puts the Arab disconnected from the Palestinian identity." Arab-Israeli—the official media and Israeli government term for the 20 percent of Israel's almost 9 million citizens who are Arab-Palestinian—is increasingly unpopular among the people it's meant to describe. Only 16 percent of this population wants to be called "Israeli Arab," according to a 2017 survey by the University of Haifa professor Sammy Smooha provided to Foreign Policy.

This notwithstanding, Israel also subjected them to a host of dominating practices. One was a discursive move involving the state's introduction of a new label to denote them: the hyphenated construct "Israeli Arabs" ('Aravim-Yisraelim) or, sometimes "Arabs of Israel" ('Arviyey-Yisrael).<br /> The new idiom Israeli Arabs, while purporting to be no more than technical, bureaucratic label, evidenced a deliberate design. A clear reflection of the politics of culture via language, it intentionally misrecognized the group's affinity with and linkage to Palestine as a territorial unit, thus facilitating the erasure of the term <i>Palestine</i> from the Hebrew vocabulary. The term puts "Israel" in the fore, constructing it as a defining feature of "its" Arabs. The Palestinians, already uprooted in the physical sense of the word, were also transformed into a group bereft of history.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=Coffins+on+our+shoulders%3A+the+experience+of+the+Palestinian+citizens+of+Israel&rft.pub=University+of+California+Press&rft.date=2005&rft.isbn=978-0-520-24557-0&rft.aulast=Rabinowitz&rft.aufirst=Dan&rft.au=Abu+Baker%2C+Khawla&rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fbooks.google.com%2Fbooks%3Fid%3DQcnz7SCkyAMC%26q%3Disraeli%2Barab%2Bisraeli-arab%2Bhyphen%26pg%3DPA43&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AArab+citizens+of+Israel" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Jamal-63"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-Jamal_63-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFAmal_Jamal2011" class="citation book cs1">Amal Jamal (17 March 2011). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://books.google.com/books?id=pWLCpqnsoLQC&q=arab+self-identification+israel&pg=PA75"><i>Arab Minority Nationalism in Israel</i></a>.
