September 2, 2015 Cheapening, Devaluing, and Diluting Citizenship By Brian T. Carter

Yusef is a five-year-old United States citizen. His parents aren't U.S. citizens. He speaks no English. He doesn't dress or act like an American. He doesn’t remember America.

Abdul is Yusef's brother and also a U.S. citizen. He understands very little English. He speaks, reads, and writes in Arabic. At age 14, he obsesses about football, but not American football. He has no memories of Georgia.

Around 1999, their father attended Southern Polytechnic State University in Marietta, Georgia on a student visa. Abdul was born while the family lived in Georgia. Nine years later, on a short 'visit' to the U.S., Yusef was born.

Yemen is the only home the boys know. Yemen is the center of their national identity, interest, and memories. Although born to Yemeni parents -- with no loyalty or ties to the United States – both boys became U.S. citizens.

They are legal U.S. citizens, but are they Americans?

Its almost feels like it is intentional. like its part of some larger plan? I am sure I am just paranoid.

No almost about it. It’s an old leftist dream, and it fits in with Islamist plans. No wonder O.B. pushes it.

Unfortunately, he’s accompanied by many fellow travelers in the Dem Party who are what Lenin called “useful idiots.”

Pretty scary stuff to think so many wannabe Jihadis are walking around with US passports.
