    1. A 2019 estimate suggested that about 10 percent of Israelis held more than one passport

    Source: https://www.dualcitizenshipreport.org/dual-citizenship/israel/

    1. Population is Israel roughly 9.5m. Rough math = 1m with dual citizenships. Add another mill (or even better, 2m) that could qualify for another passport.

    What do you want to do with the remaining few (only 6m or so) that have no grounds to qualify for another citizenship?

    I don’t want my sarcasm to be overlooked. Your core argument is that someone’s ethnicity should be enough for then to ‘fall back on’ should their country cease to exist. And further, that they would congratulate the party responsible for invalidating their country. That’s a stupid and petty argument.

    tf? What ‘native countries’ do you think exist to people that have been citizens of a different sovereign country since at least 1948? Will they return to Czechoslovakia? Or maybe Yugoslavia?

    I’m also sure that the Austro-Hungarian Empire would be chomping at the bit to restore citizenship. Someone tell the Ottomans that the Habsburgs are on the march again.



  • From the opposing position, my last three companies have placed me in the position of automating necessary tasks just to keep up with the task list, with absolutely zero support from the applicable Dev team. What’s worse, I’ve had tickets in for ~19 months requesting minimum necessary business and functional requirements, and I get passed around like a bloody hot potato.

    My choice becomes, fail in my role, or try to spin up some automation myself. The second choice is the less-worse outcome.

    That your company has an in-house software dev team is impressive. Does the revenue-generating business have access to that team?
