Window for Palestinian state 'rapidly closing': EU

[mrSHEiK124]

actually you can call yourself what you please....if you were not born where you claim then you are not what you claim.

I am Jewish......because I am Jewish and met the requirements I have citizenship in Israel..my son serves in the IDF.

I do not claim to be Israeli! That is IMO reserved for those born in Israel.

I am very pro-Israel though and will always be!

There is no such thing as an American born Israeli!!
There are American born Jews. Thus having a Jewish heritage and a traceable lineage they can apply for Jewish Citizenship.....

Obtaining dual citizenship in Israel is singular and unique in that any person born in any country who is Jewish can travel to Israel and become a citizen of the state without going through a long naturalization period.

Obtaining dual citizenship in Israel is singular and unique in that people who have no recent, direct connection to the land, can become citizens, and landowners in my ancestral homeland, while I am barred from going there.

I am an American that was born to two Palestinian nationals, I hold an [technically] Israeli identification card. I am a second class Israeli citizen.

You can be a dual citizen. You can live or have lived in two countries. You can live in one country but spend 2-3 months a year in your other country. If I move from America and spend the next 50 years in Somalia I am still an American but I'll also be from Somalia. Sheesh I was born in one state but live in another one. I don't say I'm from the state I was born in.

You're grasping at straws here by trying to dismiss his citizenship.

Really? Are American born Israelis pretending? I'm not an American according to, oh, 30-40% of America. I should just go back where I came from, hmm?

No one is saying you should go back where you came from if you're American born, but you should be supporting Amurican interests as an Amurican. And that means absolutely NOT supporting Palestinians, who are basically as anti-American as it gets. You're talking about the people behind both Gulf Wars AND 9/11.

What a foolish argument Nebor. If anything, Sunni Muslims and Al-Quida who may have been marginally responsible for both Gulf wars and 911, are hostile to Shia Muslims in Iran. And when both Hamas and Hezbollah both receive Iranian aid, it means Al-Quida and Sunni Muslims will do little to help the Palestinian people.

Nebor bigotry rides again.

My uncles recall vivid stories of how they had to seal all the doors with duct tape during the first Gulf War due to fear of a chemical attack from Iraq. There is a reason why duct tape is now called "Saddam tape" amongst that age group (30-40 year olds) in Palestine.

Although, it's pretty clear now that you're screwing with me. :biggrin: Cheers.

It is hard to do, though, when records of ancestry were destroyed in the fire bombing of German cities in WW2.

Those who LIVE in the US and claim they are Israeli? Yes. Those who live in Israel, no.

My ancestors hail from Israel...but I would never claim to be an Israeli.

Your ancestors? From 2000 years ago?
