In reply to the discussion: The racist and anti-Semitic plays coming from Bernie haters are just a repeat of 2008 [View all]George II
(67,782 posts)210. You want ME to explain something that isn't true? Sorry, it doesn't work that way.
Do you have any idea how many Americans and/or Israelis have dual American/Israeli citizenship? Do you have any idea how many Americans have emigrated to Israel over the years, proudly retaining their American citizenship while gaining Israeli citizenship.
Tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands.
EVERY one of them have "dual loyalty" and are proud and patriotic (to BOTH countries) about that.
Instead of instructing others to go and "google" stuff that you can't explain (yet still postulate about), I suggest that YOU do some research into the subject before you make blatantly false accusations based on lack of knowledge and understanding.
