Jew among Bedouin friends

Louani Idar Horowitz
27 years old, Israeli
Tour guide in Sinai

“In '72 my parents went to Sinai to open a center for European tourists. We lived there for 10 years. Our house was European in style, near the sea, the Bedouins were all around. We didn't live like them but we exchanged many things, I speak Bedouin Arabic.
I'm still a guide in Sinai but I miss those times. Every now and then I come to visit the Bedouins that are near Jerusalem. I like sitting with them in their tents, talking to them and drinking a coffee.”

Help stop the killing and the hate!

The Fraud of Zionism

Most people have been trained to think of Zionism in positive terms. This is understandable. Decades of propaganda have misrepresented Zionism as a progressive, modern force bringing civilization to an arid, uninhabited wasteland. Such an image is an illusion. This essay will uncover the true history of Zionism. It will reveal the facts and make…
