““Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.” In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
― Theodore Roosevelt―
The western world need to understand the ideological narrative of their creed and culture while adhering to their foundation and paradigm …..Australia PM is the only government that stand to defends his country from invasion and foreign aggression ” Australia is a christian state and anybody that does not understand that nor accept our cultural values should leave or don’t come to Australia” . Until America and Britain re-invents and re-affirmed their founding fathers principles and re-enact the spirit of true state ” In God we Stand “- America , “Research and Discovery” God save the queen – Britain , the terrorist will continue to cause crisis and make the country ungovernable . America especially should learn from the Saudi Arabia Immigration , no matter how long you stay or born in the country , if your root is not from Saudi Arabia , you cannot have Saudi Arabia passport or become their nationality In exceptional circumstances only, the King might grant citizenship to a foreigner who has provided outstanding service to the state over a number of years. A generous employer might reward a loyal worker who has made a major contribution to the company over many years by providing him with a work and residence permit of indefinite duration. After your retirement, however, the employer would have to be a figure of considerable influence to maintain this gift and satisfy the labour authorities. In this case, you wouldn’t be a citizen, but merely be allowed to remain in the country indefinitely.
Children of foreigners born in Saudi Arabia don’t have rights of local citizenship and automatically assume the nationality of the parents. If one of the parents is a national of Saudi Arabia, the child will usually be granted local nationality and may later become a national of Saudi Arabia and obtain a local passport.
It’s recommended that you fully acquaint yourself with the implications of giving birth in Saudi Arabia. In many cases, the child isn’t affected, but any children that he has might not enjoy the same rights of nationality, citizenship, abode, etc. as his parents and grandparents”. According to United Nations of dual nationality Although every country has its own laws regarding citizenship, there are two main categories into which these laws fall. In the first one, jus sanguinis, the principle of blood, descent and heritage play a pivotal role in defining who is, and can become, a citizen. Where people were born is not as important as if and how they can trace their ancestry back to the origin country. In this context, the term foreigner refers to those in the population whose heritage cannot be traced back to the host country. In general, under jus sanguinis citizenship policies, it is often difficult for foreigners to naturalise, even if they are long-term residents or were native born to the country. Those foreigners who do naturalise typically have to demonstrate that they meet the required integration criteria, such as language skills or knowledge of the country’s culture and history.
The second principle, jus solis, defines citizens as those born within the country, regardless of the citizenship of the parents. Foreign-born residents can, under certain circumstances, change their status and become citizens through naturalisation. When combined, both place of birth and citizenship status can be used to divide the population into three categories, native-born citizens, foreign-born citizens, and non-citizens, and define who among the foreign born has acquired the full rights and responsibilities bestowed on all citizens.
Some states’ citizenship law incorporates elements of both principles. The historical circumstances under which the principle of popular sovereignty became institutionalised in secular urban societies or in agrarian peasant societies explain the state’s choice of which principle to base its citizenship on.
In several discussions over the last decades, issues of citizenship have been seen from the classical perspective of citizenship as the legal and political expression of nationality. A citizen has come to denote “a national with voting and passport rights”. This has sometimes had the effect of reducing questions concerning citizenship to their legal minimum, i.e. matters of nationality. At the same time, migration and intermarriage undermine the traditional one-person/one state situation, so that many people are born with dual citizenship now. Though some states have suppressed the possibility of dual citizenship, citizenship laws in general are often being relaxed or disregarded.
