As for the "apartheid" nonesense, not sure what to say. Inside Israel proper, im sure you are well aware that arabs have full rights.

Apartheid exists in Israel proper, not just the West Bank. There are endless examples, both in formal law, and in daily practice. For example, Jews and non-Jews are separate classes of citizenship. Uri Davis writes:

such citizens of the state of Israel as are classified in law as "non-Jews" (namely, "Arabs") are denied to date access to some 93 per cent of the territory of pre-1967 Israel administered by the Israel Lands Administration (ILA).
