    I'm choosing to interpret the red, white and green as a sign of solidarity with the people of Palestine…

    Uhm, so it's a way of saying that all Jews must be loyal to Israel, isn't it? Well, most are, aren't they? Or maybe it's just a statement of fact and needs to be read as a negative thing rather than a positive one.
    Anyway, I wouldn't call it dual loyalty. There is only one loyalty as far as these people are concerned, and that's loyalty to the terrorist state called Israel.

    "There is only one loyalty as far as these people are concerned, and that's loyalty to the terrorist state called Israel."

    I agree. These people aren't Israel-firsters, they are Israel-onliers.
