The modern state of Israel is multi-ethnic, containing Jews, Israeli Arab Muslims, Israeli Arab Christians, Druze, Bahai and Samaritan communities. Most people on encountering someone from Israel assume that the person they've encountered is Jewish.

What does the ethnic group do in Israel?

There are certain privileges and responsibilities based on what ethnic group (based on religion) you ascribe to in Israeli society. Of course, all Israelis have the most important and basic rights, but certain particular differences arise between groups. Israeli Jews, Druze, and Circassians have mandatory service in the Israeli Army. Arab Israelis have the right to get an education in Arabic instead of Hebrew. No person of one religion can be intermarried with someone of a different religion unless those two religions permit it (which no Israeli-recognized religion permits).


What major ethnic group most influences the culture of Israel?

The answer you are likely looking for is: Jews. However, this asserts that Jews are a monolithic group, which is incorrect and negates Israel's minority influences. Every Israeli ethnic group influences Israel. Since Israel is a democracy, all of its various constituent peoples have the ability to raise their voice and run for political office. Since Israel has numerous parties and coalitions need to be formed to govern effectively, even small parties can have a strong and powerful say in the government. Some ethnic groups with influence in Israel include: Secular Liberal Israeli Jews, Secular Conservative Israeli Jews, Nationalist Russian Jews, Orthodox Ashkenazi (European) Jews, Orthodox Mizrahi (Middle Eastern) Jews, Druze, ethnic Palestinian Muslims, ethnic Palestinian Christians, Bedouins, and Circassians.


Can Arabs serve in the Israeli armed serves?

Yes, Israeli Arabs can served in the Israeli armed services. However, they are not required to do so, it's on a voluntary basis. Israeli Arab minorities like the Druze and the Circassians do have mandatory male service in the Israeli army. The Bedouins serve voluntarily, but have a relatively high service rate. It is ethnic Palestinians, especially ethnic Muslim Palestinians, who often do not serve in the Israeli Army. Many of them, especially in the older generation, see service in the Israeli Army as a betrayal of their ethnic Palestinian nature.
