What do you need to know to become an citizen of Israel?

There is no test of knowledge to become a citizen of Israel for either Jews or non-Jews. Jews can become citizens through the Law of Return, which grants citizenship based on person's Jewish heritage. Non-Jews can typically become citizens through being born in Israel, being reunified with family members in Israel, or by having their application for citizenship approved by the Israeli Department of the Interior. See the Israeli Government site below for more details.

What kind of citizen is in Israel?

Anyone can become an Israeli citizen except for an ethnic Palestinian who did not live within the Israeli borders in 1949 or is not in the annexed territories (like the Golan or East Jerusalem). This caveat is due to the sensitive political nature of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. In fact, Palestinians are the single largest Israeli citizen group after Jews. It is far easier for a Jew to become an Israeli citizen, than a non-Jew, but this is typical of countries in the region which give individuals of the dominant ethnicity from abroad to become citizens. (Armenia, Lithuania, Poland, etc. have this rule as well.) There is criticism that the inequality of citizenship process times is problematic, but it is much easier for a Muslim or Christian from abroad to become an Israeli citizen than it is for a Jew or Christian from abroad to become a Moroccan or Tunisian citizen and a non-Muslim can never become a Saudi citizen.
