I was curious as to how the legal ability to revoke a Jewish Israeli’s Israeli citizenship squares with Aliyah. It does not apply to people who:

engage in activity directed against the Jewish people;

may endanger public health or the security of the state;

have a criminal past, likely to endanger public welfare.

Which sounds reasonable, but people definitely acquire Israeli citizenship to avoid criminal prosecution in other countries.

    Statelessness is the ultimate danger to human rights. In Canada the government will not allow you to relinquish your citizenship unless you have secured another. The primary reason is that having state insures that someone will ensure your human rights. To threaten human rights is very apish. Almost inhuman. The irony is uncomfortable.

    Word. Streisand Effect, Miki Zohar!

    I haven’t watched it yet.

    Considering it had its world premiere just 4 days ago on an exclusive film festival, that is not surprising.

    I just hope I'll remember when it becomes widely available.

    Here's an early excerpt

    Is that supposed to be a threat? Better to be stateless than Israeli.

    Not sure if a Palestinian would agree.
