More than 100 American citizens have been murdered by Palestinian Arab terrorists since the 1960s, 39 of them since the signing of the Oslo accords in 1993. Twenty-seven of those 39 were killed since the Palestinian Authority launched the current wave of violence in September 2000

I don't know where these numbers came from but most, probably all, were Israelis with joint citizenship and a primary loyalty to Israel. They followed their loyalties to make aliyah. It is a tragedy that they died (as it is for the several times that number of Palestinians killed by Israelis). However, talking about "murdered Americans" is a cheap shot at best.

Since the US government allows dual citizenship with Israel, your weird conception of loyalty has nothing to do with their LEGAL status as US citizens.

Do we have a law that says that those who have a dual citizenship is less of a citizen? What about those who are not dual citizens? You say "most", so even you admit that some of victims are exclusively American. What's up?

Followed their loyalties? Primary loyalty to Israel? But at the same time you say we should indict and prosecute the driver of the Israeli army bulldozer who killed the American girl

Well..

.

You were talking about loyalties? Bringing her in into this while talking about loyatlies (I'll quote you once again) is a cheap shot at best

You don't know what you are talking about. The US government recognizes dual citizenship. Furthermore, do you say the same about an Israeli who became American? Is he less of an American as well? Also, most of the "Palestinians" which have been killed by Israeli troops have been terrorists, and the figures of 1000+ "Palestinians" killed the media spreads does not show which of those 1000 were killed while planting bombs, blew themselves up, taking arms against Israeli troops, and aiding terrorists in the act. After removing all those figures you will see a drastic change.
