The members of this tribe have lived for genera- tions in tents without any comfort. The women had to carry jugs of water from a well a distance of a half- mile. Now they were placed into normal apartments with hot and cold running water and other comforts. The Israeli authorities succeeded in convincing Bedouin families to adapt themselves to modern times. A few years ago Be- douins continued to wander, looking for pas- ture. This period is now coming to an end because of industrialization. In Jaara, in the Western Galilee, near the Lebanese border, a village was erected for Jews and Be- douins. It is hard to distin- guish between the two groups in this village. Be- douin children are learning in Hebrew schools and speak Hebrew fluently. Many Bedouins are also serving in the Israeli Army, especially in scouting units as they kn6w well the desert and border territories. Nazmi and his brother Lutfi serve in the Border Guard. They enlisted years ago and have become offi- cers. Nazmi told us the story of the Israeli-Bedouin vil- lage. Thirty years ago it was decided to build a village for agricultural work. Families of a Bedouin tribe were brought in and none have left the place. The two brothers are not the first to enlist in the Is- raeli army. In their family it has been a tradition for years. Their grandfather Mahmud Abdul died as an Israeli soldier in 1956, their father was killed in the Yom Kippur War in 1973. They admit that they were at- tacked by terrorists who de- stroyed their house in the village because they served in the Israeli army and were loyal citizens of Israel. There are young Be- douins who wish to join a kibutz. Some are already working in the Kibutz Elon and have become ardent partisans of kibutz life. A Jewish youngster told us: "We have our special cus- toms and traditions and they have their own concep- tions of morale, honor, etc. We are not taking out their daughters and the Bedouin youngsters are not keeping society with our girls. But we have many friends among them, we have com- mon interests and feel com- fortable in their company." The village has solved the problem of integration. But many youngsters are leav- ing the village. The Bedouin youngster has no relatives in the city and no connections there. He stays in the vil- lage. Bedouin families are building more houses in the village than Jewish families. For each Jewish ! house there are 10 Be- douin houses. This is be- I cause when the Bedouin 1 youngsters marry, they I stay in the village and continue the work of - their fathers, whereas the 1 new Jewish generation 1 tends more to take up I technological profes- sions. But in spite of the difficul- ties, this village proves that I with good will one can create a favorable atmos- phere for peaceful co- existence between different I people, languages and tra- ditions. 1 According to tradition, Abraham originated the morning prayers, Isaac the afternoon prayers and Jacob the evening prayers. • START AT YOUR FRONT DOOR and avoid all the driving and airport has- sle.
