Mahmoud Khalil isn’t an illegal alien.
He isn’t a terrorist.
He’s a Columbia graduate student and a legal U.S. resident. He's a husband. And his wife, a US Citizen—8 months pregnant—has no idea where he is.
The Department of Homeland Security snatched him off campus, disappeared him without a trace. No charges. No trial. Just gone.
This is how authoritarian regimes operate.
It's what happens when the First Amendment only applies to the “right” kind of people—it's only a trial balloon for a broader crackdown on speech.
If they can do it to Khalil, they can do it to you.
First, they come for the speech of legal immigrants.
If we don't speak up, do you know what comes next?
No matter how much money AIPAC & its affiliates spend to obscure & deny the facts on the ground, the truth will prevail.
@amnesty now joins the @UN, @IntlCrimCourt, @CIJ_ICJ & others in concluding that Israeli authorities are indeed committing genocide.
.@politico’s @liz_crampton on why Arab-Americans in Dearborn voted to punish Harris, and everything she and her campaign did to alienate them (on top of the Biden administration’s policy of supporting the killing of Palestinians and Lebanese): https://t.co/0FRxlJzUiP
The Path Forward, an eye-opening new documentary about Palestinians and Israeli Jews working together for justice, peace, empathy and sanity opens today at Firehouse Cinema in NYC.

The 5 things they're not telling you about Israel, Lebanon, and Hezbollah.
Some myth-busting and debunking from me, of lazy media propaganda, from my opening monologue on 'Mehdi Unfiltered' today.

Can someone tell me how many of the hundreds & hundreds of Republicans and Democratic pro-Israel members of Congress who shouted about Hamas and human shields have condemned this? 👇🏽
Anyone? Anyone at all?
The President of the United States claimed just yesterday that this was Israel’s offer. That was a lie - & now Netanyahu is publicly humiliating Biden.
Again.
If Biden loses, don’t blame the left & don’t blame Muslim voters. Blame Bibi - & blame Biden for going along with him.
I’m not sure how many times I can say this but the very simply and obvious reason why college kids in the US are protesting Israel and not Iran is because we aren’t responsible for what Iran does but our taxpayer-funded bombs just wiped out another Palestinian family yesterday.
There are videos coming out of Rafah today of beheaded babies.
Actual beheaded babies that you can see for yourselves - not the beheaded babies that the Israeli authorities invented to justify their genocidal assault, or the ones that Biden falsely claimed to have seen pix of.
His family survived the Holocaust.
He founded Human Rights Watch.
He directed the ACLU.
Now he’s saying Israel is engaged in genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
Excellent CNN interview:
I condemn Israel’s actions which killed scores of innocent civilians who were only seeking shelter from this deadly conflict.
There is no safe place in Gaza.
This horror must stop.
One million people have fled to Rafah. For months, the U.S. has warned against an attack.
Netanyahu ignored the warnings. Now an assault is imminent. It will kill countless civilians.
President Biden must back his words with action. End all offensive military aid to Israel.
