I don't know what the different people think exactly. Before the 2nd world war this was really extreme, and some of the far right has inherited those ideas.

But in the modern day there is a revival due to the weird political situation in the US. In the US, many dual citizens (with Israel) have a a lot of important positions in politics, business and media. And I think this is a bad situation when just one small group has far more power than others.

I think it has more to do with belonging to a corrupt elite-group, instead of belonging to a certain religion. You can see that from the orthodox Jews, who are often speaking against those power grabs. And also many dual-citizens are speaking out. They see some of the Israel politics as extremely racist.

Isn't it really stupid to sign your kids up for dual citizenship with Israel because they have to do military service and the government can hold them in the country until they've done it.

Ultra-orthodox are exempt from military service though, so there are loopholes.

Also apparently includes all expatriates. So there's a lot of exemptions
