Episode notes
Khalil's Deportation
- Mahmoud Khalil, a former Columbia University graduate student, faces deportation.
- He allegedly led pro-Hamas demonstrations and targeted Jewish students.
Preemptive Protests
- Protests at elite colleges, like Harvard and Columbia, began before Israel responded to the Hamas attack.
- These protests seemed to rationalize Hamas's actions and even celebrate the October 7th massacre.
Free Speech vs. Right to Residency
- While free speech is protected, the right to be in the US is not absolute.
- Khalil's support for a terrorist organization while holding a green card violates US law.
