Nah, even in the Bible, it says it was Canaanites who were living there, then Israelites said their sky daddy told them this is their promised land, and they should invade and take over.
Imagine being a Canaanite living in that land for centuries, all your forefathers lived there, and then some random people show up, murder all men, women, and children, displace your population, and claim their sky daddy told them this land was promised to them.
Then thousands of years later, history repeats itself.

You're no different from Christians claiming the US is anti-Christian, Muslims claiming everything is Islamophobic, or any other group claiming another as racist or whatever.
It's an overused word, and lost its value.
There was never equality in Israel, let alone that you missed the point of income inequality and claiming it is antisemitism. Then you proceed to say throw an irrelevant whataboutism.
Arab-Israelis are treated as second class citizens, and that is a legal fact in Israel. Examples, the Nation-State Law, passed in 2018, prioritizes the Jewish character of the state over equality for all its citizens, including Arab-Israelis, the Law of Return grants automatic citizenship to Jews who immigrate to Israel, while Palestinian refugees and their descendants are generally not allowed to return to their former homes. Marriage laws are against inter-faith marriage. Israeli law has restrictions on the reunification of Palestinian families.
Absentee property law, enacted in 1950 with an innocent name, allows the Israeli government to seize and manage property owned by Palestinians who were displaced during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, often referred to as the Nakba (catastrophe).
Jewish National Fund (JNF) land. The JNF owns ("legally" stolen) a significant amount of land in Israel, and its charter states that this land is reserved for the benefit of the Jewish people. Also, disparities in funding and resources between Jewish and Arab schools in Israel.
That is beyond the discriminatory and racist attitudes among Jews in Israel towards non-Jews, and other problems that I haven't even begun to mention.
