The Druze did not build an independent state,but lived as a cross-border nation in Lebanon,Syria and Israel.The Druze people have obvious characteristics in the historical developent.They gradually developed from the religious community into a national community.Israel's small land is living with many languages,customs,culture,religion and lifestyle different races.Israel is mainly composed of Jews,Arabs,Bedouin,Coptic,Druze and Ethiopians.These cultural practices and religious races constitute a complex relationship between modern ethnic groups in Israel.The Druze people,as one of the ethnic minorities in Israel,are marginalized,but the Druze people have a special place in Israel compared to the other Arabs.The Druze people have the autonomy of religious communities and participate in the Israeli Defense Force system,but there is still a big gap in economic,political,social and cultural aspects compared with the Jews.This is the driving force of political participation of the Druze people.In the development of the state of Israel to form a distinctive Jewish property,the Jews in the nation of Israel occupy a large number of dominant position.Jewish and other Arab national relations in the country continue to change,Israel's national policy to the development of its national ethnic relations has a significant impact.Israel's internal ethnic relations have a vital role in Israel's social order,political development and foreign relations.Druze is accounted for only 1.7%of the total population of Israel,but has a strong national identity.The uneven distribution of resources and rights within Israel has become a breeding ground for nationalism,seriously affecting the national identity of the ethnic minorities in Israel.Israeli Druze began to challenge the main nation to build an imbalanced system,and actively fight for their rights.
