Passport

A Deaf  family went on vacation in the Middle East, and the mother gave birth in Jerusalem. The family being US citizens applied for a passport and list Israel as the place of birth, but the problem is that both Palestine and Israel claims Jerusalem as its capital, as our government doesn't recognized either having sovereign, so Jerusalem is listed. I'll assume that  a Deaf Muslim family in a similar situation would probably list Palestine on its application. I think our foreign policy remains the same, despite our recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.   

This is Smokey stay tuned for the next episode of Deaf Anthology, Good Night Deaf America.
