Centuries-Old Hostility
Between Arabs. Jew; Dates
Back To Period
By CLARKE BEACH
WASHINGTON Stories about how Arabs and Jews can't write
a final peace for Palestine after months of truce and negotiations
have an ancient ring. Those two nations, next-door neighbors and
cousins, members of one of the oldest families on earth, have lived
In a kind of armed truce with each other all through the ages
except when they were actually fighting.
It all began In the time of Abra-1
ham, about 4,000 years ago. The flocks hither and yon to follow
lore of both nations relates that the grass where it was green.
Abraham was the father of both jn tne old Testament you read
Arahs and Jews. One of Abra-1 repeatedly of bloody contacts be
ham's sons was Jacob, whom the ttween the Israelites and the
Angel named Israel, and the Jews nomads to the east. It is quite

Of Abraham
aooui an Aran ana Jew lighting
on tne same side is when an Arab
army helps out one Jewish faction
which Is busy beating the life out
of another set of Jews.
Assyrians, Babylonians and
Persians picked off the Israelites
and Arabs, one at a time. Greeks
and Romans took ovr ' all of Israel
and seized control of the caravan
routes of the Arabs. In one of
Israel's final, desperate battles
against Rome, the attack by Titus
in 67 A. D., an Arabian leader
loaned Titus 1,000 horse and 5,000
foot soldiers.
With the Mohammedan sweep
across most of the Mediterranean
world In the seventh and eighth
centuries Arabians became the
masters of Palestine and of Jew
ish colonies In the lands they con
quered. Under Islam the Jews
didn't fare too badly. Although the
Prophet's policy was to slay all
persons who did not embrace the
faith, he made an exception, of
which many Jews took advantage.
They could retain their own faith
and still live if they paid a gener
our poll tax and were "reduced
low" accepting a kind of second
class citizenship. Actually, many
Jews became prominent states
men, bankers and scholars under
the Islamic rule.
One reason the Jews and Arahs
never Joined in a common front
probably was that they were
never In the ascendancy at the
same time, wnen Israel was rela
tively strong, In the times of
David and Solomon, and later of
the Hasmoneans. the Arabs were
a nebulous people, capable of no
sustained mllltarv campaign.
After the Roman razed Jerusa
lem In A. D. 135, the land was
actually plowed under, and only
a lew tnousana jews remained
alive In Israel.
Only the Mohammedans the
Arabs were strong when the Cru
saders Invaded Palestine. It was
the Mohammedans who finally
drove the Crusaders out. The Jews
were still inconsiderable in the
later major Invasions by the
Mamluks of Egypt, the Mongols,
the Ottoman Turks and, finally,
the allied forces In World War I.
Israeli and Arabs are now more
nearly equal in strength than
ever before.
