There was enough evidence to initiate action against Mahmoud Khalil by both The Department of Homeland Security and The Secretary of State. Homeland Security says, Khalil participated in "activities aligned to Hamas, a designated terrorist organization” and was distributing pro-Hamas propaganda. The White House has explained, “This administration is not going to tolerate individuals having the privilege of studying in our country and then siding with pro-terrorist organizations that have killed Americans,”.
If you think Khalil has been arrested without evidence, then protest peacefully on his behalf. Send money to his wife. Petition your congressman or congresswoman to help free Khalil. I personally think he's guilty at minimum of being a pest guest of the United States, and should be deported posthaste, and his green card revoked.
Lastly: "Under New York Penal Law § 490.10, providing material support to a designated terrorist organization is classified as a class D felony. The maximum sentence for a class D felony in New York is up to 7 years in prison." There no denying that Khalil broke this law.
Last year there were 1,126,690 international students studying at American universities and colleges, nationwide. Very few were arrested and/or deported by the Federal government. I'll trust our government rhetoric over the support Khalil is getting from shady NGO's or his team of attorneys who've in the past volunteered to represent al Qaida terrorists.
UNRWA (which is a corrupt anti-Israel UN affiliated agency)
CLEAR (which is an NGO actively supporting Khalil)
You're right. The Biden administration was anti-Israel and generally antisemitic, and I say that as somebody who comes from a multigenerational family of NY-metro Democrats. The Trump administration is pro-Israel and anti-Hamas. Them's the facts.
You consider the BILLIONS in weapons and aid Israel received from the Biden Admin, along with allowing Israel's unimpeded onslaught of Gaza, as well as the crusade against the university presidents who "didn't do enough to combat antisemitism on campus" to be "anti-Israel and generally antisemitic"? Geez, there's no pleasing you people.
Regarding the NGOs, I was asking for citations of evidence of the alleged support you claim they were providing Khalil. IOW, how are/were UNRWA and CLEAR specifically and directly supporting him?
You want citations...do your own homework. It's not my job.
Israel gives back as much as they get from the United States (eg. Iron Dome technology, Improved Tactical Air Launched Decoys, 120 mm mortar developed by Soltam Systems, advanced surface to air weaponry, facial recognization software, unmatched Middle East intelligence information, and boots on the ground in the form of the IDF). The U.S. needs a strong Israel, and Israel needs the U.S. to be an unwavering ally...it's a win-win situation.
Israel has a $20 billion industrial weapons industry. They can manufacture almost anything they need other than fighter planes and bombers. They produce the most advance tank in the world for battle in the desert.
"You want citations...do your own homework. It's not my job." -- Aaaand there it is. You've got nothing. Maybe don't make claims you can't support.
"Israel gives back as much as they get from the United States" -- Really? Israel GIVES us all those things? Uh huh.
"and boots on the ground in the form of the IDF" -- Another country's servicemembers murdering THEIR OWN enemies in NO WAY "gives back" to the U.S. And no, don't come back with the nonsense that Hamas is a threat to the U.S.
"The U.S. needs a strong Israel, and Israel needs the U.S. to be an unwavering ally...it's a win-win situation." -- No, it's a lose-win. Our support for Israel only hurts the U.S. Not only was it the main reason for 9/11, M.E. countries don't agree with our support of Israel:
Israel sells it's homemade weaponry, manufactured in their own factories, to China, India, Philippines, Estonia, Czech Republic, countries in Western Europe, Latin America, South East Asia...and of course the United States.
Israel only imports 60% of it's weapons from the U.S., the rest comes mostly from Europe. Israel spends $30.5 billion on military weapons each year. Considering how small it is, Israel has the 28th largest economy in the world. They don't need support from the U.S....but, like Egypt and other Middle East countries, they don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
While the Middle East at large hates the idea of a Jewish homeland, and the State of Israel...they hate Palestinians just as much. Just ask the Jordanians, Syrians, Lebanese and Egyptians how much they despise the Palestinians.
Good grief, those countries don’t “hate the Palestinians.” Seems like pure projection on your part. As for your “stats” on Israel’s weapons, please cite your source(s).
So glad to hear Israel doesn't need our welfare. Can we get a refund, please? I suppose the huge demonstrations the people of multiple Middle-Eastern countries have where there's a sea of Palestinian flags is how they express... hatred..?
Well, any rube can tell you that in the spectrum of hatred, Jews are universally hated; antisemitism prevails in the Middle East and in the melting pots of the West. Africans seem to hate Jews, yet few have ever met one. That's strange. But...but...in the Middle East, among the ruling Muslim nations, the Palestinians are unwelcome by all, like an Arab red headed step child. That's a fact.
As for Israel, their annual GDP is $513.6 Billion USD. They spend about 5% of that on national defense per year, or over $25 Billion. So, yes, the $3.8 Billion in "aid" that the U.S. provides to the Israeli defense forces annually isn't insignificant, but the country can manage without it if it disappears. There are many reasons that the U.S. provides military aid to both the parliamentary democracy of Israel and their next door neighbor, the military dictatorship of Egypt. I'll let you figure that out for yourself.

Ah yes, the government rhetoric "participated in activities aligned with Hamas," whatever the hell that means. As I said, ZERO evidence.

I'll trust our government rhetoric over the support Khalil is getting from shady NGO's or his team of attorneys who've in the past volunteered to represent al Qaida terrorists.
Last year there was a completely different administration in power.
Pray tell, what "shady NGOs" are supporting Khalil? Provide citations.
Btw, trusting government rhetoric is never a good idea.
