ICE arrests Palestinian activist who helped lead Columbia University protests, his lawyer says

[j-mac]

But The administration is now claiming that the State Department is proceeding pursuant to Section 237 (a)(4)(C) a rarely used provision of the law that gives the secretary of state the power to seek to deport "[a]n alien whose presence or activities in the United States the Secretary of State has reasonable ground to believe would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy

So how is the Secretary of State going to argue that Mr. Khalil right to protest is causing a "serious adverse foreign policy harm ?

That's just it, Khilil is NOT an American citizen...Therefore if the SoS determines this, it is within his power to do what he's doing....Period...

You don't have to like it....

 

[j-mac]

So you’re telling me there’s a law that Congress passed that restricts the free speech of people.

Is that right?

I've given you the statute. You make your own determinations

 

[Marener]

It is coming to light that this man was an organizer of these violent protests at Columbia, and Barnard colleges, and therefore if the Secretary of State deems him a threat to foreign policy, he is at that time a National Security threat.....

Violating the constitution and hiding behind national security concerns is a tale as old as time.

As a Conservative American I have to like it

Deport him because he violated immigration laws

but as a Green Card Holder he can only be deported pursuant to Section 237 (a)(4)(C) - but I don't see the connection

Palestinians do not exist!

Yo Dingle Berry

Can you then explain the reason that former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir claimed that she was born in Palestine and carried a Palestinian passport until 1948?

Well, maybe you should get ahold of his attorney and tell them you have a fool proof argument against his deportation...I'm sure they'll listen....

That is just bad a statement as someone shout Antisemitic slogans.

The majority of the people in Palestine and the world believe both cultures should be respected and need to co exist.

Your statement is as horrific as someone saying Jews shouldn't exist.

Mine is based on facts! Yours on emotion, which is what hamas counts on!
Way back on March 31, 1977, the Dutch newspaper Trouw published an interview with Palestine Liberation Organization executive committee member Zahir Muhsein. Here's what he said:

The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct "Palestinian people" to oppose Zionism.

Who cares...Not what we are talking about here...

 

[Contumacious]

IslamoNazis do not have a right to take-over colleage campuses nor pose a mortal danger to Jewish students.

Not in this country, anyway.

And those responsible for planning and executing such events, when not a US citizen, can (and should) simply be deported.

Don't like it? You can always apply to emigrate to the Islamic Democracy of your choice.

Let me remind you that in 1948 a US PRESIDENT BY THE NAME HARRY S TRUMAN STOLE PALESTINE FROM 1.5 MILLION PALESTINIANS WHO OVERNIGHT BECAME FOREIGNERS IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY

Truman Adviser Recalls May 14,1948 US Decision to Recognize Israel

I think an administration waving their hands and saying they can deport anyone with permanent legal status if they don’t agree with their speech is pretty outrageous.

But hey, I like the first amendment. You don’t. This administration definitely doesn’t.

 

[Contumacious]

Just showing that you are INSANE when you claim that Palestine or Palestinians "do not exist"

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Tons of conservatives are indeed accusing him of crimes, so is that just all bullshit?

I don't know of any conservatives accusing but him of committing any crimes. He should be, but that would be separate from deportation. He should have been deported long ago.

Can’t prosecute someone you’ve deported. Obviously.

As well it should be. Even if the support was just vocal support, and not really illegal. We are in a War on Terrorism as a nation.

If an alien was in America in 1943 vocally supporting Germany or Japan, they would be shown the door as well, wouldn't they?

No.
