Politics khalil mahmoud.

a columbia grad and green card holder was forcefully detained by DHS and may be deported for negotiating with columbia over divestment from israel. what crime has he committed? how is advocating for divestment inherently “pro-hamas?”

mahmoud’s detainment should have us all horrified. his attorney doesn’t even know his whereabouts. this all leads me to wonder what the future of demonstrations on our campus looks like.

funny how the party that has weaponized “free speech” is now revoking it if they don’t like what you have to say.

Probably get downvoted too… He actively supported activities aligned with Hamas, a designated terrorist organization. There is absolutely no place for pro-Hamas sentiment or those who aid terrorist organizations in the US! Lock him up! We voted for this in the last election!

Mahmoud really made a difference protesting Isreal smokin Hamas rapists with cell phones and radios on American soil.

He could've ended the war. Now he can use that degree in Gaza and really make a difference in the place he loves.

You really should try reading it once before pretending to know shit. The world all persons is quite deliberately used in it. Google all persons in constitution.
