Israel has been an apartheid state for decades. This has nothing to do with Hamas. Anyone who is "changing their mind" now, hasn't - it's merely no longer socially acceptable to support naked indiscriminate brutality.
Around 20% of Israelis are Muslims and they have full rights and get to vote, so no its not an apartheid state.
Arabs with Israeli passports are routinely searched and investigated by intelligence agencies, and in the occupied areas Arabs WITH Israeli passports are not allowed to visit certain areas (multiple sources online, including the recent Louis Theroux documentary). This is the very definition of an apartheid state.
No one with an Israeli passport is allowed to visit Area A of the West Bank, regardless of their ethnicity.
One case is an assertion of sovereignty (whether we agree or not), the other case is apartheid.
Areas outside of Israeli control where Israelis are not allowed to go is irrelevant when discussing about whether Israel is an apartheid state or not.
Actually you said
> in the occupied areas Arabs WITH Israeli passports are not allowed to visit certain areas
But in any case, since you also said "multiple sources online" perhaps you can link one so we're talking about something concrete and not just vague insinuations.
It is trivial to find more sources than the one I already mentioned, there is a very very long wikipedia article as a starting point. I'm afraid you do not care about seeing what is going on, you care about dismissing opposing opinions.

Sounds like you have more than enough to get started.
Or maybe stay with reddit and quora. Up to you.
If the distinction you're making is only that the apartheid is applied mostly in Gaza and the West Bank, I'd say that misses the forest for the trees.
words have no meaning, only emotion
Israeli apartheid is a system of institutionalized segregation and discrimination
in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories and to a lesser extent in Israel proper.[a]
("Israel proper" refers to the borders of Israel as recognized by the majority of the international community,
which excludes East Jerusalem, the West Bank, the Golan Heights, and the Gaza Strip.)
This system is characterized by near-total physical separation between
the Palestinian and the Israeli settler population of the West Bank,
as well as the judicial separation that governs both communities,
which discriminates against the Palestinians in a wide range of ways.
Israel also discriminates against Palestinian refugees in the diaspora
and against its own Palestinian citizens.[2][3][4][5][6]
Let's skip those places for a moment. What are the signs of apartheid in Israel proper? I don't have access to the sources listed. Just one or two things off the top of your head would be a lot for me.
