Native American Tribe Signs Friendship Treaty With Israel

by Malkah Fleisher

(IsraelNN.com) The Sovereign Nation of the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana has become the first Native American tribe to recognize, honor and welcome official representatives of the State of Israel.

During the large ceremony held on November 17, Asher Yarden, Consul General of Israel to the Southwest, and Kevin Sickey, Chairman of the Tribal Council of the Coushatta Tribe of Louisiana, among others, signed a proclamation recognizing the "common histories," dedication to ancient tribal languages, and "shared spirit of endurance" that provide common ground for the Coushattas and the Jews.

The signing ceremony was a major event on the reservation in Elton, Louisiana, with 300 people in attendance. Banners bearing the Star of David and the Coushatta seal were attached to power poles, the local gas station cafe shut down for the event and schoolchildren attended the ceremony, held in a field near the tribe's administration building.

Tribal leaders signed the friendship proclamation at a small, ornate wooden table set on a stage and presented it to the Israeli delegation before a ceremonial stomp dance began.
