Yes.

So, the same would be true for Ali and Sayeeda, suspected al Qaeda operatives operating in Mexico, who sneak across the southern border to allow birth of their child in the United States?

You think their child should be given automatic U.S. citizenship?

Why?

Yes, the baby is born here, they get citizenship (or at least the option of citizenship when they turn 18).

The terrorists' baby you mention is no different from the baby of terrorists who are here legally, who may be citizens -- his parentage is not his fault. And maybe we'll put mommy and daddy in jail, we'll raise the kid right and he'll grow up to serve honorably in the US Armed Forces.
