A visit to a Bedouin Arab home

Here's a 3 minute 45 second chat with Muhammad Khaldi in Khawalid, a Bedouin Arab village in northern Israel, and his son Ishmael Khaldi, who is the deputy consul of the Consulate General of Israel to the Pacific Northwest in San Francisco.

We had the talk during a visit to the Khaldi home by a group of 10 Innovation Israel bloggers from the San Francisco Bay Area. Both Ishmael and Deborah Schultz interpret Muhammad's remarks from Arabic into English.

Here's a 13-minute video capturing a story by Ishmael Khaldi, who is the deputy consul of the Consulate General of Israel to the Pacific Northwest in San Francisco, during a trip to his home in Khawalid, a Bedouin Arab village in northern Israel. Ishmael recounts his first visit to the United States when he came to New York with no place to stay.

Ish chatted with a group of 10 bloggers from the San Francisco Bay Area during a weeklong trip to Israel in April 2008.
