    There are “Arab Israelis” as well. Basically Palestinians who weren’t driven out and are now citizens or the descendants of those Palestinians. They have to serve in the IDF regardless of their politics (which, as you can imagine, aren’t very sympathetic toward Israel). They also prefer to be called Palestinian Citizens of Israel, but the media usually calls them Arab Israelis or Israeli Arabs to differentiate them from the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.
