Appraising the Arab Minority in Israel
Transcribed from the clipping
“The Israel Arabs, unhappily for themselves and the Jews, live close to Israel’s most vulnerable frontiers and they greatly outnumber the Jewish settlers in these zones.”
Context added by this archive
Jon Kimche, writing in a Milwaukee Jewish weekly, in the column Boris Smolar usually filled. Note the form: not Israeli Arabs but
Israel Arabs, a third word order that never caught on. In 1950 the name was still being tried out. What is settled already is the frame — a population described by where it sits relative to a frontier, and counted against the settlers near it.
