any Jordanians feel
that countryman Ragi
Saaid crossed the fine
line between heroism
and insanity recently when he
named his new-born son Yitzhak
Rabin.
"I feel sorry for the [4-month-
old] baby," one Jordanian told
Yediot Aharonot. "His father is

To show their discontent with
the homage he paid the fallen Is-
raeli warrior-turned-peacemak-
er, Jordanians have beaten up
the 40-year-old Mr. Saaid, fired
him from his job, refused for
awhile to register his son's name
and forced his family to move

not even written him a note. Is-
raeli embassy employees in Am-
man have not offered to help him,
according to Yediot Aharonot.
This is in sharp contrast to the
Likud government, which in 1982
invited an Egyptian who named
his son Menachem Begin to
Jerusalem and gave the baby a
huge, colorful teddy-bear.
Mr. Saaid has only received
grief. In fact, Israeli newspapers
treat him not as a trailblazer but
a grandstander. Yediot Aharonot,
for instance, accused him of nam-
ing his son Rabin to seek public-
ity and win rewards from the
Israeli government and people.
But nothing deters Mr. Saaid.
"For me, as a proud Jordanian,
Rabin managed to break a psy-
chological barrier," he said. "I re-
spect him particularly because of
his military background. He
knew to show force in war, and
knew to go for peace at the right
time."

But Mr. Saaid — who lives in
hiding with his wife, Maraym,
and baby boy — resists all at-
tempts to force him to change the
name of his son, a cute, quiet
baby with big dark eyes, accord-
ing to Yediot Aharonot.
"I fear only Allah," said Mr.
Saaid, a Muslim Palestinian- Jor-
danian injured by Israeli soldiers
years ago when he was a PLO
fighter. "I hope my story will raise
a positive response in Israel ... I
would want to see at least one Is-
raeli family show the same
courage and name their baby af-
ter our peace hero. No one would
be happier than me to hear that
... an Israeli couple named their
baby after King Hussein."
Mr. Saaid may be sane, but he
is a dreamer. Israelis have not
only failed to follow his footsteps
but have ignored him. The Labor
government has never acknowl-
edged his struggle. It has not in-
vited him to Jerusalem — it has

Like Mr. Saaid, 14-year-old
Azahar Salimah is a trailblazer.
But the disapproval she faces
from her fellow Arabs is not near-
ly as harsh.
Azahar is the first Muslim to
attend Northern Israel's presti-
gious Kaduri agricultural board-
ing school, a 65-year-old
institution that educated some of
the top Zionist pioneers, includ-
ing Yitzhak Rabin, according to
Laisha magazine.
Many of Azahar's friends and
neighbors in the Galilee Arab vil-
lage where her parents and eight
brothers and sisters live have crit-
icized her. But their discontent is
not so much political as it is reli-
gious. They do not like to hear
that a Muslim girl is going out
disco dancing late at night, hang-
ing around with boys and wear-
ing Western clothes, Laisha
reports.
"In the Arab sector, the woman
is weak and the man lets her go
wherever he chooses. She is not
allowed [to decide on her own],"
Azahar's father, Ishmael Musha,
told Laisha. 'With me, it's not like
that."
Mr. Salimah, who waves the
Israeli flag on Independence Day,
also allowed one ofhis sons to join
a combat unit in the Israel De-
fense Forces.
Azahar, a popular students at
Kaduri with many friends, has
not decided whether she will also
join the IDF, but she knows she
