I wonder if they simply don’t want to arm the arab civilian population. I sure haven’t seen anyone official claim it’s a reason, but maybe they wouldn’t like admitting it either.
I think probably they should have just thrown up their hands and said, ‘hey it’s a Jewish state formed specifically to protect Jews.’ So only Jews get the 2nd amendment analogue. Maybe give big tax breaks or even flat annual payments to non Jewish citizens as a trade off or something.

One of the comments mentioned a current requirement that the person speak fluent Hebrew.
