USA: The only major country which allows its citizens to join the military of another country.
Ten years ago, about 1000 Americans were in IDF. Now, that has grown to over 5000. If you join another country's military, you should automatically lose your US citizenship
The very instant he said “I do” his American citizenship should have been cancelled. You’re an Israeli now? Good luck and goodbye. Your home is over there.
Also. The very first day I am President we are cancelling foreign aid so guys like this can eat my shorts.

Are people aware that people from other countries can also join the US army?

I don’t believe this for a minute. More propaganda trying to convince American youth to fight for Israel.

We kinda have a history of other countries helping us out in wars. Turn about has been fair play I guess.
Allied nations, of course.

It’s the same for us. We accept other nationals to join our military.

This relationship is not unique to USA and Israel. Several citizens from various European countries also serve in the IDF. Notably however Israel is not the sole recipient of recruits. In my time in the Finnish army our company had recruits from USA, Sweden, Norway and Australia. Dual citizens are not special.

CNN once again equating anti-Israeli sentiment to anti-Semitism.
That doesn’t work anymore. Most Americans know the difference and have no problem calling out a Zionist while befriending Jews that don’t support genocide.

*”felt compelled to fight back at what he perceived as a growing level of anti-Semitism in America”* – Based on that screenshot, his motive for joining Israel’s military makes no sense at all. How does joining a foreign army counter any *”ism”* in your own country?
Besides, he does not have to join the Israeli army to serve Israel. He can simply enlist in the US army. The US army is a tool of Israel, anyway.
