It's not segregation at all. Non-citizens can attend public schools, but they choose not to. The main reason is that the meduim of instructions in public school is mainly Arabic, except for the daily English language classes. Many Arab residents who cannot afford a private English school send their kids to public schools.
And hey, don't change the subject!
