I think some of them have lived there for decades and did not know about procedures for registering their citizenships when the country was formed. I am not sure even the Arab authorities have the political power to deport hundreds of thousands of people who were originally from their country, who have no other place to call home. And if they were going to try do it anyway, to where, Syria? I guess the foreign citizenship plan was to give these people a citizenship in the Comoros, and in exchange give the people temporary visas to stay in those Arab countries, and slowly phase them out because they don't want to share the country's bounties with these people.
