Anti-Israel protesters marched on Times Square on Saturday night to protest the apprehension and imprisonment of the graduated student of Columbia Mahmoud Khalil.
Khalil’s animated defenders challenged the rain in the city center, Canting and exhibit signs that included “Mahmoud Khalil free now!” “Hands outside our students” and a variety of other slogans.
The controversial defender Anti-Israel Linda Sarsour spoke at the event and brought together the protesters in the former Student of Columbia.
On Friday, Louisiana’s immigration judge, Jamee Comons, ruled that the Trump administration can deport the Khalil born in Syria about their participation in the wild anti-Israel demonstrations at Columbia University in 2024.
Khalil’s lawyers torn the decision, insisting on considerations of freedom of expression at stake in the case of deportation.
“Our Constitution allows people to say what they think,” said Khalil Marc Van der Hout’s lawyer on Friday after the decision.
“The Nazis in this country, the Supreme Court has argued, are able to demonstrate, they can express their beliefs, but not Mahmoud Khalil. The Ku Klux Klan can leave and express their Hout argued.
The former postgraduate student of Columbia was the introduction of the tasks of the ice agents on March 8 in the lobby of his Manhattan apartment building financed by the University.
The National Security Department declared that Khalil was illegally in the country, since his student visa was revoked due to the political activity of his campus.
Khalil was one of the leaders of the Protests of the University of Columbia in 2024, acting as the main negotiator and representative to demonstrate to students that establish camps on the Morningside Heights campus.
On Thursday, it was revealed that the key evidence of the Trump administration case against Khalil was a letter of approximately two pages of Secretary of State Framework Rubio.
In the letter, Rubio characterized Khalil’s continuous presence in the United States as they have “potentially serious advertising constituents, and committed a convincing foreign policy interest.”
Rubio affirms in the letter that it is political “to combat anti -Semitism throughout the world and in the United States, in addition to efforts to protect Jewish students from harassment and violence in the United States.”
