Having an EU passport makes European stuff easier. If you're not trying to stay for an extended time / work there then a US passport is all you need though
Not paying taxes to them even if they're not doing anything for you. Not risking prison because you fucked up the FBAR or some other arbitrary red tape they impose on you that you're expected to automatically know all about as soon as they make it up. There are some other reasons but these two are some of the biggest. US citizenship is not desirable at all if you have any kind of international mobility and options.
>Not risking prison because you fucked up the FBAR
How could you fuck up an FBAR? It's a single document that can be filed and submitted electronically. It's literally just putting in your bank account number. I don't even put a total in since I never remember my maximum amount for the year.
If you end up with a second passport it's genuinely better to give up your US citizenship just because it's more of a hassle if you live in another country as a American due to how aggressive the US is on taxes. It's not really bad if you live in America and still travel a lot.

Those gunbunny propaganda pics you’ve seen are Ukrainian instathots that the Israeli army flies in specifically to take photos in uniform
They aren’t soldiers and they aren’t even israeli or israeli lmao
I had a feeling that was the case, never seen a israeliteess IRL that looked that good.
no
as far as I know, Americans are allowed to travel to Russia as before, with a visa
however, your credit cards won't work and you'd probably pick up scrutiny if you stray away from the typical tourist activities and areas
Going to Russia now as an American would be like going to the USSR as a American during the cold war (during the Cuban missile crisis).
Ain't worth the risk, they might imprison you to try and use you as collateral to get another prisoner the US has they want. If they don't do that you might run into some very angry locals that will want to take out their anger out on America on you.
We missed our chance to visit Russia probably could get to Ukraine still that Miles guy did, though personally I wanted to visit Pripyat it was on my to visit list but won't be able to for a while most likely thanks to this war.
Long as you hide the fact your American they probably won't care, put on a accent or something.
Stop watching CNN and use your brain.
>Stop watching CNN and use your brain.
Even before the war back in the day when I'd sometimes read English Teacher X's blog I remember a story about a friend of his that got beat up by a bunch of Russian youths when they heard him speaking English while on his cellphone.
I don't even watch mainstream news there are Russians pissed about their quality of life going down a bit because of America and Europe's sanctions they have every right to be angry with us.
>I'd sometimes read English Teacher X's blog I remember a story about a friend of his that got beat up by a bunch of Russian youths
The friend certainly dindu nuffin, people just beat up randos without probable cause.
You could have made this more believable if you substituted "English Teacher X" with "Indian worker Y".
What does immigration have to do with travel?
I travel to many places that I wouldn't want to live long-term, places like San Francisco or Hawaii included.
It depends on which other passport and where you want to go. Some non-US passports will get you into specific countries more easily. An EU passport is obviously better in Europe than a US one. Likewise some African passports will get you into a lot of African countries without the fees and paperwork required from a US passport.
Depends on what you're trying to do there. YMMV

if you get your israeli passport you can get conscripted into the army and meet israeli qts

An US passport doesn't even let you visit all the countries of the world.
If you've racked up enough unpaid taxes the IRS can revoke your passport or deny the issuance of a new one

Also if you ever want to renounce US citizenship, you'll need a second passport
Any good reasons to renounce US citizenship?

Yeah, if you have a passport other than US, UK or Canada, you can travel to Iran unsupervised
What about Russia? Are americans barred?
we should be barred from everywhere
no

You have no idea about Russia or the Soviet Union.
Please stop repeating CNN and FOX news pieces without using your brain at least once.
More people leave Russia than immigrate to it, I had neighbors that were Russian. You can't shill hard enough to get people to move there.

I got Irish passport from grandparents(lineage) and can now own propert in the EU and stay as long as want
