Khaldi is the first Bedouin Consul from Israel and the first Muslim to rise through the ranks of the Israeli foreign service. As the Deputy Consul of Israel, he hopes to provide a bridge of understanding from Israel to the United States. Ismail Khaldi spoke on “Pluralism and Israel through the Eyes of a Bedouin Israeli” on April 25, 2008.
