IDF Paratrooper~Proud To Serve & Proud to be Bedouin

Soldiers at the Kotel

Last week I wrote about IDF Soldiers singing Hatikva in the Old City of Jerusalem, and what a wonderful event it was. 

I just found this interview with one of those fine young men and would like to share it with you.

As it happens his family has a long history of serving in the IDF, and defending Israel. Not unusual you might say for an Israeli, however, you also should know that these particular Israelis are Bedouin, they are Muslim, and they are also very proud of their service to their country.

I was told, that at the swearing in ceremonies, Jews make an oath on a Tanakh, and the Muslims use a Koran~but please~don't tell anyone, because, after all, Israel is supposed to be an apartheid country...
