Mahmoud Khalil, the man behind anti-Israel protests on Columbia’s campus last year, was arrested over the weekend. Now, however, a federal judge is preventing him from being deported, instead ordering a hearing for him on Wednesday.
From Fox News. A federal judge in Manhattan ruled that anti-Israel agitator Mahmoud Khalil is not to be deported “unless and until the Court orders otherwise,” on Monday.
Connect with others in your state in prayer.
Khalil, who led anti-Israel protests and encampments on Columbia University’s campus, was taken into custody on the Upper West Side in New York City on Saturday. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said he was a former Columbia graduate student who “led activities aligned to Hamas, a designated terrorist organization.”
The judge ordered a hearing for Wednesday. Khalil’s lawyer also filed a motion that he be returned to New York City while the case plays out. According to ICE, Khalil is currently being held at the Lasalle Detention facility in Louisiana. Khalil’s lawyer has insisted their client was detained illegally and should be released. …
Politicians have also spoken out in defense of Khalil. “Squad” member Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., criticized his arrest, calling the incident an “egregious violation of constitutional rights.”
In a post published to Instagram on Sunday, Tlaib wrote that it was “dangerous to allow our government to target people based on political speech” and warned that “more targeting of students like this will happen.”
“Everyone should be concerned about this,” Tlaib said in the Instagram video.
The Michigan congresswoman also addressed the reports about Khalil having a student visa revoked after his lawyer said he was a legal permanent resident.
“They were revoking his student visa. Well, guess what? He doesn’t have a student visa,” Tlaib claimed. “He’s a green card holder, legal permanent resident.” …
President Donald Trump said Khalil’s apprehension was “the first arrest of many to come” in a recent social media post.
“We know there are more students at Columbia and other Universities across the Country who have engaged in pro-terrorist, anti-Semitic, anti-American activity, and the Trump Administration will not tolerate it,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.
“Many are not students, they are paid agitators,” he added. “We will find, apprehend, and deport these terrorist sympathizers from our country — never to return again.” …

The old saying he who troubles his own household will inherit the wind. Anti Semitism is a fact and targeting Jewish students is a continuation. The courts have bussed students to other schools, fined major corporations for discrimination. Anti Semitism is far worse than an educational problem. Deportation or separation is consistent with legal solutions.
I am 74, and I do not recall courts having such power over any President in my lifetime! FATHER GOD please remove these judoges from the bench that are attempting to stop President Trump! No unelected judge has power over the Executive Branch in our government except to interpret a law when there is a question according to our constitution!
FATHER GOD I bind the courts in the United States from hindering President Trump in his job to restore America! According to the Constitution, the judicial branch “interprets” laws not make new ones! Please put a quick stop to these wicked judges’ attempts to hinder, delay, and/or stop President Trump as he is restoring our country in JESUS NAME! Amen!
Help us Father to oversee the deportation of those who hate America and her ways. We have always been a country who supported our country, help us to maintain freedom and love of our country.May we move forward with this cleansing with Wisdom and honesty and integrity . May God bless America
I pray the Will of God be done in this situation. That the Trump administration will not back up on the policies to deport people like him because if the judge is allowed to do this to stop his deportation, then they will think they can do it and get away with it.
I think he was also one of them that instigated the removal of the American flag and put up the Hamas flag in New York City. He has no constitutional rights because he is not a citizen.
So Lord, we call upon you to help us American citizens.
Father , I’m boldly asking You to remove any enemies of Your children Israel from our country who would be under Satan‘s influence. You are just and merciful.Amen.
To protest is one thing, but to attack Jewish students and do illegal things is quite the opposite! And why is he living in the college when he is no longer a student? If they can’t deport him, why can they not expel him from the school and refuse to let him come back? My prayer is that we would be a land of law and order, not that people would be able to destroy and threaten and receive no consequences.
That’s what I’ve been saying for a long time. They are here illegally. They don’t have rights.
How can noncitizens claim constitutional rights? We pray for wisdom from our leaders and authenticity from our lawyers. Bring our country back from these huge pendulum swings to a common sense point of view on all of these issues. We pray you’d give our leaders discernment to catch and prosecute terrorists.
