ISRAEL-EDUCATION-FINANCE-CHRISTIANITY

A young Arab Israeli Christian boy holds a banner reading in Arabic: "Me too.. my school is not for sale" during a rally against what they said was state discrimination in funding their schools, which prompted them to declare an open-ended strike, at the foot of the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth on September 1, 2015. Christian schools in Israel stayed shut delaying the start of the new academic year, affecting around 33,000 pupils, mostly Muslim Israeli Arabs, at 47 schools run primarily by the Roman Catholic church.
