Palestinian bedouin
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Palestinian bedouins are a people that have historically roamed with livestock and other domesticated animals in the regions that roughly corresponds with areas to the west of the Jordan river.
Overview
Palestinian bedouins became sedentary earlier than other bedouins of the Middle East.[1] Some Palestinian activists have suggested that Israelis reinforce the Palestinian bedouin identity in an attempt to divide and conquer suggesting that a divided Palestinian community is weaker.[2] The Palestinian bedouin way of life has been affected significantly by the establishment of Israel due to the travel restrictions imposed, Israeli settler communities resulting in the confiscation of their lands[3] and house demolitions by Israeli bulldozers.[4]
