If they're fighting in another country's army are they truly Canadian? Is this a case of religion trumping nationalism/patriotism?

They likely have dual citizenship, which would mean they are "truly Canadian".

If they have dual citizenship, they also likely joined the Israeli military because commiting genocide is easier for some people than revoking their citizenship.
