Saudis To Buy Iraq?

I read an article a while ago in the Jerusalem Post, about a women, who was a Bedouin and a lawyer. Apparently, her father sent her off to Law school in Paris.

So, in Israel, are the courts separate for Jews and Muslims? Or do the Bedouin lawyers practice law in Israeli courts the same way that a Jewish lawyer would?

This is off the topic, but I find it extremely interesting that a Bedouin father would send his daughter to law school, in Paris.

(Thanks for all your information!)

Secular Arab regimes have ambiguous relationships with Islamists. They do not tolerate them domestically, but readily cooperate with them against USA and Israel. The late Syrian president Hafez el-Assad has suppressed Islamic unrest in one of the Syrian provinces in the ways Saddam suppressed Kurdish riots, more than 20 thousand people were killed. But from the other side, Syria directly supports the militant Islamic group Hizballah.
And, of course, Timberlandko is right: Islam is a religion, and Islamism is an aggressive political movement. All the Islamists are Muslims, but not all the Muslims are Islamists.

The courts that deal with family issues are separate for people of different confessions (there is no secular marriage in Israel, and family aspects are being controlled by clergy, Jewish, Muslim and Christian). But general civil and criminal courts are the same for all the citizens.
About financial status of Bedouins. In average it is somewhat lower than this of the Jews, but there are wealthy Bedouins that can afford sending their kids to study abroad. Wealthy Bedouins are either tribal Sheiks or businessmen (or both).

Very true.

re religious court system Israel:
"
The Religious Court system was established mainly by the Palestine Order-in-Council 1922-1947, sections 47, 51-56. Following the establishment of the State of Israel, specific laws were enacted for some of the recognized religious communities, including the Moslems, the Druze, the Jews and the Christian communities. The religious court system is financed by the State. The jurisdiction of the Rabbinical courts is restricted to matters of marriage and divorce concerning Jewish Israeli citizens or Jewish residents in Israel. In other personal matters, the Rabbinical courts can accept jurisdiction with consent of both parties. The jurisdiction for the Sharia (Moslem) courts is broader in scope in that it encompasses all personal status matters, not merely marriage and divorce. The Christian and the Druze religious courts have jurisdiction similar to that of the Rabbinical courts."

Thanks for detailed description of the matter, Mr. Hinteler. It coincides in general features with my response, but provides details that I could not have provided not being a lawyer.
