Beduin

An Eritrean, mistaken for an assailant during an Israeli Beduin gunman’s assault, also died after being shot by a security guard and kicked by angry crowd.

The Beduin has been a bandit since the time of Abraham, for the simple reason that the desert does not support industrial life nor respond to industrial effort.

And in the interior of the country all the people are Beduins: in this country there is much wheat and plenty of meat and dates, grapes, and all other fruits which are in our parts.

The Beduins are little given to the chase, and seldom make war on the game birds and quadrupeds of the desert.

To keep out the glare and the heat he had hung oriental rugs under the skylight, propping them up on long poles, and their fringed ends hung down as in a Beduin's tent.
