    If you told me "Germany is making people agree to support Israel as a requirement for citizenship" I would probably assume it was rumor made up on /pol/

    Does this even do anything? I mean yeah you can say new naturalized citizens signed some agreement, but that sounds basically as valid as a contract signed under duress

      Not sure about German law, but generally one of the few ways a country can try to undo naturalization or grant of citizenship is if the applicant lied on their application. Therefore, if you declare that you support the Zionist Entity's right to exist but then attend a pro-Palestine rally, the government could theoretically try to strip you of your citizenship.

          One simple trick to stop Germany from stripping you of citizenship (immigration officers hate this!):

          Give up your previous nationality so you are a citizen of Germany only. International law prevents countries from intentionally making people stateless.

            International law prevents countries from intentionally making people stateless.

            Definitely a gamble, given that international laws aren't particularly well-enforced.

      Every government form I sign feels like I’m under duress. Not even joking…

    I’m assuming this is more just a way to limit Arab migration to Germany than it is anything about genuine support for Israel.
