The
Solons on Capitol Hill are terrified of the expression “dual loyalty.”
They are afraid because dual loyalty means that one is not completely a
loyal citizen of the country where one was born, raised and, presumably,
prospered. It also suggests something more perverse, and that is dual
citizenship, which in its present historic and social context
particularly refers to the Jewish congressmen and women who just might
be citizens of both the United States and Israel. There is particular
concern over the issue at the moment because a freshman congresswoman
Ilhan Omar has let the proverbial cat out of the bag by alluding to
American-Jewish money buying uncritical support for a foreign country
which is Israel without any regard to broader U.S. interests, something
that everyone in Washington knows is true and has been the case for
decades but is afraid to discuss due to inevitable punishment by the
Israel Lobby.
Certainly,
the voting record in Congress would suggest that there are a lot of
congress critters who embrace dual loyalty, with evidence that the
loyalty is not so much dual as skewed in favor of Israel. Any bill
relating to Israel or to Jewish collective interests, like the currently
fashionable topic of anti-Semitism, is guaranteed a 90% plus approval
rating no matter what it says or how much it damages actual U.S.
interests. Thursday’s 407 to 23 vote in the House of Representatives on a
meaningless and almost unreadable “anti-hate” resolution
was primarily intended to punish Ilhan Omar and to demonstrate that the
Democratic Party is indeed fully committed to sustaining the exclusive
prerogatives of the domestic Jewish community and the Jewish state.........http://www.unz.com/pgiraldi/no-dual-loyalty-isnt-okay/
