No, I think he just sees them all as Israelis who somehow have the ability to vote in our elections. He would never refer to Michael Higgins as “your President” when addressing a group of folks in Boston who were of Irish decent.

It’s like a conspiracy theorist’s bulletin board that only has one picture pinned on it. Saves a lot of red string.
