Exclusive interview - #MahmoudKhalil wants to reassure you
The Columbia #protest leader on #Hamas, Zionism and why #Jews shouldn’t fear a ‘free Palestine’
https://forward.com/news/817276/mahmoud-khalil-hamas-zionism-antisemitism-israel/from #TheForward #Forward
[#Jewish publication from #USA]
April 7, 2026“I have a nuanced view of the #Zionist project that goes beyond 'Zionism is bad.'”(On what he learned from engaging with liberal Zionism)
Khalil, like the movement he came to represent, is adamant that #Zionism is racist. He opposes any two-state solution that seeks to preserve a Jewish majority in #Israel.
“Rejecting the self-determination of the Jewish people on the #Palestinian land in itself is not #antisemitism,” Khalil said during our interview. “You are denying other people’s rights in the land.”
“This is what we should aspire for: to get a place where there’s no more conflict, no more killing in that place and it’s open to anyone who wants to call it their home.”

New Legal Documents Show #MarcoRubio Targeted #Students for #OpEds and #Protesting
Rubio accused students including #MahmoudKhalil of supporting terrorism, but records unsealed after litigation by The Intercept undermine his claims.
by Jessica Washington, January 23 2026
Excerpt: "The students won their case last year, but until Thursday, the trove of documents remained under lock and key after the judge agreed to seal the records on the State Department’s behalf. At the request of The Intercept, the Boston Globe, the New York Times, and the Center for Investigative Reporting, Massachusetts District Judge William G. Young ultimately unsealed the records, revealing intimate details about the State Department’s persecution of students speaking out in support of #Palestine."

Just seconds into his presentation, Stone cited an appeals court ruling earlier on Thursday that backed the #government in the case brought by Columbia University protester #MahmoudKhalil challenging his arrest & attempted #deportation. The Philadelphia-based 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals, whose rulings are NOT BINDING on Young, found #Congress has forbidden district court judges from issuing orders that impact deportation proceedings.

Young added, “These cabinet secretaries have failed in their sworn duty to uphold the #Constitution.”
Young’s comments came as he prepares to issue what he described as a steep #sanction against the #Trump admin for seeking to “chill” the #FreeSpeech of pro-#Palestinian #activists targeted for arrest & removal weeks after Trump took office—including #Columbia University’s #MahmoudKhalil & #MohsenMadhawi, as well as #Tufts PhD student #RumeysaOzturk & #Georgetown academic #BadarKhanSuri.

Not good
Appeals Court Opens the Door to #MahmoudKhalil’s Rearrest
Any new detention would not come immediately, and Mr. Khalil’s lawyers are almost certain to appeal. But the ruling is a major blow to Mr. Khalil, a Columbia graduate and prominent figure in the pro-#Palestinian movement.

Free Leqaa Kordia: Palestinian Woman Who Joined Columbia U. Protest Has Been Detained Since March
https://www.democracynow.org/2025/12/24/leqaa_kordia
from #DemocracyNow
December 24, 2025Calls are growing to release Palestinian protester #LeqaaKordia, who was arrested at a 2024 Columbia U. #Gaza solidarity protest. The charges were dismissed, but when she went to her #ICE check-in this past March, she was arrested and immediately sent to a detention center in Texas, where she has been held ever since. Although Columbia U. student protesters like #MohsenMahdawi and #MahmoudKhalil have been freed from ICE detention, “her case sort of fell between the cracks,” says Laila El-Haddad, Palestinian writer and journalist from Gaza, who just visited Kordia. She also criticizes the #Trump administration’s effort to “crack down on any dissent and... to weaponize immigration law to silence dissent and to criminalize free speech, especially when that speech relates to #Palestine.”

An immigration judge has ordered Columbia University graduate Mahmoud Khalil to be deported to Syria or Algeria over allegations that he omitted information from a green card application.
Khalil, a legal permanent resident of the United States and a prominent student activist against Israel’s war in Gaza, has been at the center of the Trump administration’s campaign against campus dissent."
