I am a one issue voter. I'm voting against genocide.

Will Jewish candidates be asked about their commitment to the safety of Muslim and Arabs? Certainly, Christian and European candidates, given the history, should be made to commit to the safety of absolutely everyone else? Or is it only Arab Muslim candidates who must swear oaths?
