#1 "I declare I will be a loyal citizen of the state of Israel,"

And if not, I will immediately cede any and all real and personal property to Israel, eat a ham sandwich, and move to the North Pole with my family wearing only my face mask.

#3 I'm not overly concerned. At least Israel appears to be following lawful, immigration procedure. I don't recall them having 'sanctuary cities' either.

#4 Jerusalem has a huge tourism industry. Probably 30,000-50,000+ people are employed in it (depending on how you count).

Of those, at least half are non Jews including Israeli Christians and Moslems and Palestinians (both Moslem and Christian). The industry would not be sustainable without them.

#5 so help me HASHEM"? So help me GOD

Newc, pious Jews do not speak or write about God casually, instead using a euphemism such as HaShem (the Name) or G-d. Reporting on the oath falls into this category.
