This headline is false. I actually wrote this entire article 2 years ago and it's been re-posted and changed here by adding unsupported assertions in the starting paragraph and title. Here's my original from 2 years ago:

https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/4zm640/why_do_so_many_us_politicians_have_dual_usisraeli/

The 89% figure in the OP not true. Even the number 89 is not true. My original title was this:

Why do so many US politicians have dual US/Israeli citizenship? At least 13/100 Senators, at least 27/435 House Reps, and many of The Presidents's cabinet.

Then someone along the line later added the first line

89% of our Senators and Congress hold dual citizenship citizenship with Israel we are in Syria because of Israel ask yourself who is the real traitors to the country sacrificing American soldiers for the benefit of foreign country.

Which is simply false... And the headline clumsily says:

89 of our Senators and Congress hold dual citizenship citizenship with Israel

Which doesn't agree with the first line, neither of which are true.

So if you want to post this, post it with the original, correct, title. The one I wrote 2 years ago.

This is literally my article that has been reposted over and over, and now is being actively used to push disinformation that isn't supported, which only serves to muddy the waters of any real discussion.

You have to be very careful about this!
