Iraqi Elections - Good News Surfaces "Dual Citizenship" Issue
By Bill West
The apparent success of the Iraqi elections is cause to celebrate for the US and Iraqis seeking freedom in their homeland. Much was made of expatriate Iraqis in the United States voting in the elections, with senior US Government officials encouraging such voting. Beneath the surface of this activity, however, lies something that has been going on within America for many yearsthe exercise of dual citizenship. The US Government has essentially tolerated this practice for decades, and with the Iraqi elections, appears to now even encourage it. Is this now accepted National policy? Should it be? Or should perhaps this be a matter for National debate and further resolution? An article published today in FPM explores this matter further.
