I am fine with that. Actually most of my life I have lived by these restrictions. I am not saying this is ok, but we should stop pretending this is not everywhere. For example US immigration system. Based on your nationality there are restrictions. As non-US immigrant my wife could not work in the US based on our nationality.

Once you are a citizen of the US though, regardless of where your spouse is from, there is equal opportunity to become a citizen.

That is different than Israel since Jewish spouses can become citizens while non-Jewish spouses can’t, even if the person they are married to is an Israel citizen.
