The aim of the association is to strengthen the connection, affinity and sense of belonging between Muslim society and the State of Israel through education, social values and services to the community, society and the state, and activities that encourage integration and volunteering, official recognition of the state and political establishment as unique and independent. There are a number of problems facing Arab society today that prevent it from integrating into Israeli society: 1. Separation and deliberate disconnection of Arab society from Jewish society and unwillingness to integrate and take up the resources offered by the state 2. Misconception – the misconception about the State of Israel, by the leaders of Arab society and opinion leaders in society, which causes a social rift and distance between Arab society and Israeli society 3. Neglect and discrimination – There are neglect of soldiers from Arab society, soldiers from Arab society often suffer from violence and baseless persecution, the lack of support for soldiers comes from both the Arab side and the Israeli side. 4. Difficulties of integration – 3 million Muslims in the State of Israel suffer from difficulties of integration and belonging to the State and Israeli society. This causes social divisions and significant gaps within Arab society on the issue of identification. We in the Arab Alliance strive to solve the same problems through the resources available to us and do so through workshops, seminars, tours, seminars and summer camps. The Arab Alliance is the bridge between the social gaps in the State of Israel. This is proof that through effort and positive thinking real change can be led and help the next generation of Muslim Arab society, integrate and feel a sense of belonging to the state and its heritage.
