> If you have an Iranian passport stamp, I would expect very pointed questions at US immigration

Or any number of things. I know of multiple French citizens born in "suspect" for the Americans places like Algiers and Beirut who have had extensive questioning on arrival at the US, including the mindbogglingly stupid " why were you born there?".

That honestly doesn’t sound like a dumb question to me. People don’t just get randomly born abroad for no reason, it’s typically because their families were doing something there.

Well when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much...

Its pretty stupid having to explain that to a 50 year old.

It kind of is though, because Algeria was a part of France until 1962, and there are millions of people of Algerian descent who have French citizenship.

Like living there?

Potentially. But, families can also travel to places where they don't live. They can also engage in activities that are of interest to customs officials, regardless of their residency status.

Rather than guessing, it's prudent to simply ask the question, no?

I know anAmerican born in Tehran who is white. It is a minefield.
