Exactly why I want them here.
And I can say that my Assyrian Iraqi relatives do love America. They all became citizens, and none of them has ever expressed an interest in returning to Iraq, not even to visit. Their allegiance is to the US, not Iraq.
Heck, in many ways they’re more American than my native-born relatives—they always vote, they’re far more interested in talking about politics and important issues facing this country, and they’re much more self-reliant (less likely to look to government to solve a problem).
