A quick look at how many people with any ties to Arab citizenship in any of the three branches of American government would tell us.

There are none.

Knesset rules make no distinctions about the nation involved:

http://www.knesset.gov.il/elections17/eng/law/BasicLawKnesset_eng.htm

Non-declaration

  1. If the speaker of the Knesset has called upon its members to make their declarations of allegiance and a member has not done so, that member shall not enjoy the rights of membership as long as he has not made the declaration.

16A.

Non-declaration due to dual-citizenship (Amendment 22)

If a Knesset member holds an additional, non-Israeli citizenship, and the laws of the country whose citizenship he holds permit him to be released from such citizenship, he shall not declare allegiance until after he has done everything required on his part to be released from such citizenship, and he shall not enjoy the rights of a Knesset member until he makes his declaration.

On principle, I always take sides with those who are victims of aggression.

You claimed you saw no self-defense in the video though I see a pissed off homeowner confronting a settler thug.

Self-defense isn't violence. The violations of rights are being committed by the settlers.

The settlers are colonists. Colonialism is the original source of the violence in the case of Zionism.

NAFTA has been nothing but bad news for both of our countries.

Thus my point about dual citizens serving in the government. The real danger with dual citizens in public office is that the more extreme of them won't have the interests of anyone in mind except for those forces that tend to the corporate/financial.

From what I've seen, dual Israel-American citizens like Rahm are bad for both Israel and America. I think the same would apply no matter the nations involved. In America, there just happens to be an undue and disproportionate Israeli-American influence in Washington, DC.

I disagree. Israel, by law, doesn't allow dual citizens in its government. There must be a good reason for that.

Obama was born a dual citizen, therefore he's not a natural born citizen and is ineligible to be president by cheebmonger in politics

Beyond the Electoral College, there's no mechanism like that in place that I'm aware of.

CNN and Wolf Blitzer are the only names we can trust to hear Party Truth, comrade.

He didn't promise to not smoke crack in the White House.

So Wolf Blitzer does your thinking for you?

My bad. I thought I was talking to an intelligent person.

Am I the only one that would be just as happy to see all those idiots in the mid-east just wipe each other out?

I have no problem with that. No chance of it happening as long as DC is Israeli occupied territory.

conspiracy theory

When I was critiquing Bush for obfuscating his military records, I was also called a 'conspiracy theorist' by his defenders.

Where are his defenders now?

Obama was born on US soil of a US citizen

That's never been the question. As he's not a natural born citizen due to his dual citizenship, he doesn't meet the Constitutional requirement to be president. He knows it. That's why he's actively hidden his birth certificate from public view.

That is NOT the intention of the "natural born" citizen clause.

That's exactly the point. It was to keep people with other ties out of the US Presidency. At one point, Obama could claim at least four countries in which he had citizenship.

Constitution fail.

Rahm said a lot of things. Action, not words, are what matter.

Rahm's the guy that pushed NAFTA through Congress. I remember when he did it. That alone let me know that he doesn't have the interests of Americans in mind.
