Great what a source. That's not even an article. Besides the headline is entirely misleading. But yeah, jump on the bandwagon without thinking for yourself. Very reflected and liberal of you
You can look it up yourself if the above is not good enough for you
Just to be clear, asking people to confirm they agree to Israel’s right to exist is not the same as pledging loyalty. I don’t know if it’s a translation error or a deliberate attempt to make the point seem worse.
It’s radical to me that someone things tying people’s naturalisation to a foreign policy position is a good idea, is seems a pretty shitty one, but they aren’t asking for a blood oath.
