Iraq forbids Jewish citizenship
Shocking, yet who knows if it's surprising. On WorldNetDaily, they've published a link to the draft of the Iraqi "constitution", which reveals that Jews apparently do not have the right to seek citizenship in the country that we fought so hard to free from dictatorship of Saddam. Here's a link to a PDF file containing the would-be bill of rights. And in it, it says:
"Any individual with another nationality (except for Israel) may obtain Iraqi nationality after a period of residency inside the borders of Iraq of not less than ten years for an Arab or twenty years for any other nationality, as long as he has good character and behavior, and has no criminal judgment against him from the Iraqi authorities during the time of his residency on the territory of the Iraqi republic."Is that how the people of a country that even Israel supported against the tyrant who ran it, shows its thanks? That's how they return the favor for our support for them in a time of need?
