Excellent argument in favor of eliminating dual citizenship, you’re either an American or an Israeli, pick one. The same for all the other countries that we offer dual citizenship to.

Yes, this is an issue that needs to be addressed, either you are or are not a US citizen. People getting US citizenship should drop foreign allegiences and citizenship. Those that move to foreign countries, invoke that citizenship when convenient need to renounce or lose citizenship.

I am presuming that some of the Americans dead, abused, and hostage are not dual American by convenience citizens.

As there is war, all Americans should be told to leave or turn in their US passports and stay as citizens of the countries they choose over the US.

Are you a muzzie?

All you’ve done recently is post anti-Israel posts on any Israel thread you can find.

I believe the U.S. government, as a matter of policy, does not accept any obligations to protect dual citizens who choose to live in another country of citizenship.

Tourists and travelers are one thing, but any U.S.-Israeli dual citizen who was abducted or killed over there are a different matter. They shouldn't even be considered "U.S. citizens" in this context.

Agreed.

Teddy Roosevelt spoke on dual allegiances and hyphenated Americans.

There are plenty of American tourists over there who do not have dual citizenship, any of which could be in the hands of Hamas. Do you think Hamas checks the IDs in order to release everyone except people with dual citizenship?
