Well if you're jewish then you can live in Israel, and anyone who lives in Israel is considered Israeli

not really... anyone can live in israel. jews just get automatic citizenship. unless you're a murderer with a federal arrest warrant. then you might have a problem on your hands.
I think that the only people that get citizenship are jews, sometimes if you where born here, if you are related to someone jewish, I think.
There is a rule about it, "Hok Hashiva" XD, You can proboly read about it in govermental sites.
and, if you don't have citizenship and you live here, you are consider illegal =/
i know. i lived in israel for the first 10 years of my life and have spent every summer (6 in total) there since we left. i sat, and am still sitting, through painstakingly long classes about israeli government, current events, social studies, etc. why are they painstakingly long? because i already know everything there from watching the israeli news every single night, and shows like eretz nehederet and mischak machur on weekends (disregard this sentence if youre not from israel. cause, um, yeah too long to explain). i go to protests, i go to marches, i go to the israeli scouts every week.
in short- i know.
being jewish is not a prerequisite for israeli citizenship. yes, it's so much easier to get citizenship if you can prove you're jewish, but they dont deny citizenship to non-jews. they just make it so much harder. but you can still get it.
