Israel and Trump are unrelated. Trump uses Israel to manipulate Jewish voters, as AOC, et all, use their disgusting sympathy for Hamas to cater to Muslims in Michigan and the US.
Your comment is a dog-whistle to anti-semites everywhere.
Trump has nothing to do with Israel other than to help an American ally who is infinitely closer to our democratic beliefs and Western way of life than any of the inhuman tyrannical, Islamo-fascist societies in the Middle East.
But I have to wonder if you will eer acknowledge the error of your ways. Look to the sins in your own life before you go attacking others.
You make a much greater error by excusing blatantly illegal acts by a rogue law enforcement agency. And support for that totalitarian adjacent activity in the name of opposing anti-Israel terrorism contributes to hatred of Israel and anti-Semitism in general.
> blatantly illegal acts by a rogue law enforcement agency.
You don't get to pass judgement on law enforcement simply because you don't like the result.
The man was a foreign supporter of terrorism who gained entry to this country under false pretenses and then acted in support of a foreign terrorist group.
It isn’t admirable, particularly if he entered the US under false pretenses, which has definitely not been proven. But you are supporting something far Far FAR more dangerous to the US than one single person — law enforcement agencies that totally ignore statutory law and the Constitution. You are such a supporter of this totalitarianism that even deny that they are ignoring it. You would have felt right at home in Italy in 1926.
Sorry but warrantless searches and arrests without probable cause aren't not liking the result, they are violations of basic rights enshrined in the US Constitution, which you don't seem to have read.
Please provide evidence and sources for your claims about Mr. Khalil. The government has only said his views ‘align’ with Hamas, whatever that means. The only thing that I can find is his support for Palestinian self determination. But then Israel and its American allies have long been trying to criminalize that sort of speech.
When someone demands evidence for the manifestly clear, you have to assume their insincerity. Their intent is not inquiry but obstruction through a performance of doubt. No amount of proof will satisfy those already convinced or committed to feigned skepticism.
Again please provide evidence. A number of Israeli politicians have been urging genocide and ethnic cleansing in Gaza. I don’t hear you calling them out.
We already have Elon Musk who is clearly dabbling in Nazism, or at least pushing the edge as far as he can. He’s abhorrent, but his speech is protected as well.
Really? What Israeli politicians have been urging genocide against Palestinians?
Does that include the two million Arab Israelis who live mostly peacefully inside Israel without being brought up from cradle to martyrdom by a terrorizing inhuman totalitarian regime that forces their ctizens to become suicide bombers, soldiers, slaves or hostages to their sick military regime?
Do you support a society that does that to their people. Do you call that free will, or free speech?
How many supporters of Hamas do you think we should allow into our country?
Your changing the subject to Elon Musk ... whataboutism ... is funny because I'd deport him too.

That is a cheap-ass shot, and it is BS too.
You are so enthusiastic and vicious in your total BS
which only amounts to name-calling against someone
who is here at the Bulwark specifically because I am against Trump that I have to conclude you are a troll
with the purpose to chasing off moderate people who
refuse to follow the herd mindlessly as you seem to
wany and encourage non-thinkers who just repeat
the same stuff that undercuts moderates/Democrats.

I don't agree that Khalil's arrest was unConstitutional.

Speech supportive of hate and genocide. I think if this guy was a foreign born supporter of Nazism you would sympathize and side with him as well.
