To say someone is “from” ......... or they are “citizens of” ........ is nothing more than lubricant for the spin doctors.
As an example, there are a LOT of people who hold a Canadian passport which technically makes them “a Canadian”. Does that mean they were born here? Raised here? Are reflective of the rest of our society?
It means they went through a process and moved to a new country, nothing more.
I don't understand what you mean. And likely I was not clear about what I was trying to say. My point is on 9-11-2001 17 out of 19 hijackers that attacked the US where from, or citizens of, Saudi Arabia. And most of the people accused of planing and financing the attack also where from, or citizens of, Saudi Arabia. Voters where promised a un-constitutional total ban on all Muslims entering the US. After court battles, it was agreed that citizens of a list of countries would be subject to extra scrutiny before they got a visa to visit the US. Now I'm just a dumb truck driver, but I would think the first country on the list would be the home country of the attackers. But it is not on the list.
In the past, it was thought The enemy of my enemy is my friend.. To even discuss the idea of sending troops to protect Saudi Arabia makes me wonder who SA is friend to, our country?
