Said Marco Rubio, quoted in "The Khalil case is a threat to First Amendment rights/Donald Trump wants to deport a legal resident for his views. Who else will be punished for exercising free speech?" by the Editorial Board of The Washington Post. (Free-access link).
I thought Alan Dershowitz did a good job of discussing the complexities of this case:

That WaPoo 'legal resident' claim is, at best, deceptive. I don't care what Dersh has to say, green cards can be revoked...
well it is a campus haunted by edward said, so it makes sense
that they would end up there, but yes inciting Jew hatred is a non starter,
Let the “peaceful” protests continue, but insist they follow the law (initiated for teh KKK) and remove the masks. Also don’t harass or assault ANYBODY, no destruction of property.
Those who break those laws should be subject to wood shampoos, arrest, prosecution and punishment, if convicted.
It takes Dersh half an hour to explain that there are certain people you aren't allowed to criticize?
Dersh seems to think chances are fair that it will make it to the Supreme Court. I don't see it as a Free Speech issue, but I haven't seen the evidence. I like Rubio's response as the more pragmatic one, especially as one to set a precedent to close a chapter on a historic period of 'obnoxious behavior that is encouraged by looking the other way'. Mahmoud should have done a better Risk Assessment before embarking on his activist career. We have enough loathsome trouble makers and 'useful idiots' here already, thanks.
attacking Jewish students in their dorm rooms is speech, ok tell me another one,
Defending October 7th as resistance, you want to dial that back
My prescription for those miscreants who’ve occupied the 1st floor of Trump Tower in Yew Nork Citay: the hardest of wood shampoos, followed with a peroxide rinse for ticks and fleas.
And arrest and prosecution.
having one rule for jewish students and another for christians and moslem students is a violation of the 1st admendment. All religions must treated equally. And the Holocaust is not a religion, although you'd never think so from the way people act.

It's the same rules. You know that of course. You can protest all you want. You cannot attack people. You cannot spit on them. You cannot block them from classes. You know this of course and are dishonest. Look everywhere in the world. Do you see masses of Jews and Christians spitting on, attacking innocent people? No. You see this only in Islam and the left. You know this. And we know you know this. But you are a liar and choose to act such.
I haven’t seen any evidence. I do understand Dershowitz pointing out the difference between a Green Card holder and a Visa holder, and I don’t like the idea of so easily revoking a Green card.
Politically, I think this move is brilliant. It is causing Democrats to expend a lot of political and financial capital to defend an anti-Semitic, while they try to claim Trump and advisors are Nazis. Bold strategy for the Democrats, let’s see how that plays out.
I don’t have sympathy for Khalil, but I do have sympathy for Justice and fairness. I think noting that a Jewish professor was sanctioned by Columbia with no defense suggests that perhaps Khalil deportation needs to be pursued to push the Overton Window back to fairness.
If these pricks were being prosecuted and jailed for their opinions, that would be a violation of their rights, even as foreigners.
But there is no Constitutional right to a visa or a green card, and we can bar entry to anyone we like for any reason the President sees fit, even if it is only for publicly stated opinions that are uncongenial to our public harmony.
And certainly any foreigner committing vandalism, trespassing, assault, or other actual crimes should be instantly arrested, driven straight to the airport, bundled onto the very next flight home, and permanently barred from re-entry, with no standing to go to court and find a sympathetic communist judge.
Do you see masses of Jews and Christians spitting on, attacking innocent people? No. You see this only in Islam and the left.
That's not exactly true. There are some ultra-Orthodox Jewish sects who consider it a mitzvah to spit at Christians, and in Israel they do so frequently.
Progressive price. Progressive product. Abort.
Remind me again how many wars the Arabs won against Israel, chalk up 73, as a tie, Rabin gave up Lebanon after 18 years, so did Sharon, with Gaza how did that turn out, there were four more wars, where deals were brokered, by the the Obams or the Clintons
khalil had 19 lawyers, nearly as many of the 9-11 hijacker KSM had
Dershowitz, like Turley, has an unshakable faith in the ultimate integrity of the Federal Judiciary.
Judges should be lynched. I think it would be a good idea if we taught Judges a lesson and had a few more lynchings.
Professor Dershowitz says I can say that.
khalil had 19 lawyers
…safe to assume we all helped pay for them…
Hamas blows up synagogues pizzerias, and discoteques other strategic targets like that,
now those lovers of haj amin hitler's house guest, uncle of arafat, are saying what now,
Yes Orde Wingate was a committed Christian and he trained what became the Palmach which is the IDF,
You're telling Jews who were locked in Ghettoes for a 1000 years, well you don't understand, who were nearly liquidated all through out Europe, with a little help from your best bud Haj Amin,
Is it possible to hide comments from specific people? I’d really love to be able to do that. People are free to spew whatever vile stuff they’d like, I guess, but it’s ugly, hateful, and I don’t want to see it.
Only thing that comes out of Gaza is death, that is their export
I could start relating their masterpieces
It would be tough to do for the individuals, but the best bet would be for Jewish students and professors to leave Columbia and go to other schools. The reputation of a school is based on student achievement and faculty academic research.
If this was done or seriously threatened then Columbia would be demanding that all these violent protesters be put in jail.
A school made up of masked folks walking around cussing is not the way to attract good students.
It should be pointed out that although Kahlil holds a green card he remains a citizen of Syria - a foreign national.
There are no complexities. Use of force, including damaging property, against non-combatants to further an ideological or political goal is terrorism. Would you say Khalil qualifies as a terrorist or an “aider and abettor.” He’s one or the other. Also, since when did revoking a visa of someone advocating for terrorism become a constitutional question? He’s lucky they aren’t shipping him to Guantanamo.
Serve (3:33): “Let's all just pray the stupid Pollacks don't get the bomb!” Why would anyone give the bomb to a group of fish?

"The Khalil case is a threat to First Amendment rights/Donald Trump wants to deport a legal resident for his views. Who else will be punished for exercising free speech?"
Legal residents do not, and should not, have the same free speech rights as American citizens.
Leaving aside that he's a criminal thug, and that he organized and participated in protests where crimes occurred, if you're not a US citizen and you support terrorists, you should be deported.
Period, dot, end of sentence.
And that means if you support the Palestinians, you should be deported.
The people who gave us cancel culture dont' get to complain about people's lives being destroyed for "bad think"
The people who went to SCOTUS to defend the Biden Admin censoring people on social media for "malformation" do not get to talk about "free speech rights".
You went after ours, that means your side doesn't have ANY.
There are no complexities. His support of Hamas, a designated terrorist organization, is not allowed to citizens and noncitizens alike. He supported Hamas, and promulgated their propaganda publicly. He can do that in Gaza now, not here.
I suspect they have him lying on his green card application.
I'd love to hear heard Dershowitz arguing with his Mom.
Oh so NOW the Washington Post likes the First Amendment.
Weren't they the same rag that demanded parents confronting (nonviolently) lunatic leftist school boards should be imprisoned and be persecuted by child services and social(ist) workers?
Leftists generally adore Hamas. Mask wearing lunatic terrorists.
Mask wearing lunatic terrorists are beloved by the collective left... or given the green light.
To the left - a Molotov cocktail thrown at a Tesla is free speech.
Hamas and the Palestinians who vote for Hamas - hate Jews more than they love their children.
That's why Hamas use any human they can find as a shield- including their own children.
It's got to be made that violence (on the left) is not speech. Assault, battery, destruction of property, physically and verbally interfering with civil rights are all violence. And conversely, conservative and/or libertarian speech are not violence.
"Trading ideas and goods makes much more sense than trading bullets and bodies."
Islam doesn't appear to have much interest in trading ideas.
If you are here on a green card, you are still a guest. Behave like one.
Lots of countries trade with the enemy that they're at war with. It's just a matter whether both are better off with trade or not, and how risky physical trade is. Gas pipelines are a non-risky sort of thing, as is electricity.
Antisemitism is constitutional. Disorderly conduct and intimidation is not.
Dershowitz thinks it's horrible to support Hamas. It's just Palestinians winning the who's-more-oppressed war. The Palestinians play their own Holocaust card against the Israeli Holocaust card. I'd say, to look at them, Palestinians re more oppressed.
The who's more oppressed war is the wrong war. You can't win it. The right war is who's moral and who's immoral. Israel has been offering mutually beneficial trade to Palestinians repeatedly, and each time Hamas shoots it down or blows it up. Mutually beneficial trade being the only source of new wealth in the world, that's Palestinians oppressing themselves. Dealing with them is then just self defense, nothing about oppression, theirs or yours.
Jews unfortunately are wedded to seeing antisemitism everywhere whether it's there or not, to maintain alienation and prevent assimilation. It's a religion survival strategy, so the thing isn't going to resolve soon.
The Palestinians are wedded to sending the message "You can't live here." That's their fixed position.
Throw a Molotov at them... call it a "Heated Discussion".
Jews unfortunately are wedded to seeing antisemitism everywhere whether it's there or not, to maintain alienation and prevent assimilation. It's a religion survival strategy, so the thing isn't going to resolve soon.
Well, mobs of people chanting "Death to Israel" and "From the River to the Sea" tend to sharpen one's perception of these things, I suppose.
I've said before that we must learn to answer the intellectual case that is being made on campuses by the settler/colonialist theory. But when I listen to Dersh talking about how difficult he finds it to understand why people aren't opposed to the current round of anti-semitism with its calls for a genocide aginst the Jews I feel I have to say again that the reason the students and others are not deeply ashamed of themselves is that the settler/colonialist theory purifies the call for genocide by asserting that certain groups have comitted genocide to get where they are. Hence if these settlers can only be removed by a genocide from where they are so as to allow the indigenous people to return then so be it. An eye for an eye; a genocide for a genocide. And after Israel, the idea is to commit genocide in the US so as to get the land back to the tribes.
This is a complex issue and I wish someone as clear thinking as Dershowitz would think about it.
In the case of Israel we can say that it is complete rubbish to say that Arabs are in the indigenous people of Judea.
@boatbuilder And when there's no international crisis, it's claiming that company Christmas decorations are oppressive.
The constant is alienation. Alienation is a great creative resource, as spectacular Jewish scholarship shows, if you bother reading it. Among the masses though, it's an anti-assimilation crutch.

.."Dershowitz pointing out the difference between a Green Card holder and a Visa holder, and I don’t like the idea of so easily revoking a Green card...."
Why not? Having a permanent residency as a non-citizen is a privilege, not a right. He's entitled to free speech protection, but not all of the same constitutional rights as a citizen.
But let's face facts: He came here on a mission. Within 2 years of being here on a 'student visa' he's got an American wife that's 8 months pregnant, and a Green Card. That's remarkably fast. Spouses of US Citizens can qualify for a Green Card, but that's warp speed, talking from experience here. I think there's probably more to the story, and I agree that it might concern the veracity of disclosures on his original visa.
I'm so sick of seeing the rights and the birthright of citizens being systematically 'looted & diluted' by the Progressive Left, that I'm fully on board with tossing this vile system-gaming creature out, and I would like to see immigration get tougher on such matters and stay that way. Let's see the evidence.

Agree. Jupiter and RCOcean often say interesting things when they are not blaming everything on JOOOOOS. Derve is just nonsense. Like a small child. I just gloss over his comments not because they are different than what I think but because they are so obviously just not thought through. They are like the response of a small child. I'd love to be able to ignore them because they're just meaningless.
"Trading ideas and goods makes much more sense than trading bullets and bodies."
Mason G: "Islam doesn't appear to have much interest in trading ideas."
That's one key reason why there is such a passionate and permanent, and inevitable, Full Alliance and partnership between the New Soviet Democraticals and their islamic supremacist pals.
Islam is a cult of death. It is dedicated, by it's own rules, to the removal of all other religions. It refuses to assimilate into other cultures. Islam has ethnically cleansed the entire middle east of christians and jews.
The legal system is, as usual, a joke. Debating whether someone is protected by Americas constitution, when they proclaim that the only good jew is a dead one.
Perhaps if universities sponsored pogroms, then our brilliant legal system might, just might, find some fault.
There is not wiggle room here. The fact that this piece of trash has 19 expensive lawyers tells me all I need to know.
He is a foreign national, who has publicly stated that Israel has no right to exist.
I'd throw him, and a good portion of the professors at that school., out, with force.
The left, as usual, portrays Trump and Musk as Nazis, and there for it is peaceful to burn cars, cities, and call for the death of both men.
I grow tired of the double standard the law has propagated in the last 30 years or so. It's fine to kill, rape, murder those people who are deemed nazis. People who actually agree with Nazis, and who have done real crimes, we let those folks slide.
Islam focuses a lot on having enjoyment in this world. It is probably the best religion to have if you want lots of sex with multiple partners of various ages, almost as good as being a democrat.
You can’t drink, but a lot of drinking is due to not being able to have sex with multiple partners anyway. So that is not a real issue.
Islam is not compatable with civilization or humanity.

A browser extension exists or existed to use on WordPress blogs for this purpose but since I've never seen anyone volunteer the information for one that works here, I'm guessing it isn't. Alas.
There used to be an extension for chrome that allowed you to block users but it appears to not work anymore.
The guy is a hooligan. Blocking buildings and taking over classrooms is unlawful. No one has a right to do that. It’s not speech. Throw his ass out of the country.
The guy can say whatever he wants. That doesn't mean he can stay here.
I was slapped across the face after asking why we weren't at least reading that sad hag Simone De Beauvior in our required feminist theory class because ALL the other writers were black or Jewish women who considered themselves not-white. And then the bitch said she knew she should not have done it, but would do it again and hauled off at me in the hallway.
She was one of the black students who were admitted free from Clark-Atlanta, while we paid.
Fascinatingly, James Baldwin's last lover came out of his office and berated her. He wore his waistcoat. And I pitied her. She was from real poverty; I had worked in her projects: she was being indulged and had no idea who de Beauvior
was anyway. I cut her no slack, threatenered her back, and we were study buddies for the rest of the semester.
Now I wish I'd had her arrested. Plus stayed study-buddies. Life is complex.
Deshowitz is a comic character pig when it comes to defending vicious killers and rapists of women who are not Jewish. So he is a deeply prejudiced person who glories in sick deaths of non-Jewish white women.
Sorry. I can't forgive him for that. It needs to be discussed when we discuss his admittedly intelligent discussions of Israel.
Should only shikas be raped and murdered? If Althouse was raped and murdered, he would defend her murderer. He loves celebrity cases like this.
So why promote this sick prejudice?
Who else will be punished for exercising free speech?
The Post only wants Republicans punished for...well, for anything, really.
As a green card holder for a decade, I was coached by the lawyer to not break any laws, as it can revoke residency rights. After getting a passport as a new US citizen, you were still ‘on parole’. One of the specific notes was that support for terrorist organization was a reason for revocation of citizenship and deportation (as well as criminal prosecution).
Further, the certificate of citizenship - and passport - are the only indications that you are an American citizen. Do not lose them.
The democrats - and government - have already set the bar for repercussions of people 'exercising their free speech rights'. Harsh jail sentences, use of third parties to suppress those rights, and using public pressure to ensure that those who espouse principles which go against democratic talking points are punished.
If these are the rules we play by, then there's should be no complaints from the complicit media. In this case, a non-citizen supporting a terrorist organization should be deported.
Excellent to see a reasonable defense of actions to remove these imported agitators. We have enough home grown agitators. We don't need cheap eastern knock-offs of our worst citizens.
So suddenly WaPo is all in on Free Speech? How convenient that they find this viewpoint only during Republican Administrations, and cheer censorship on when Democrats are in charge.
Freeman Hunt said...
“The guy can say whatever he wants.”
Depends on what he wants. Does he want to incite a riot? Does he want to create a panic, mayhem, terror? Does he want to promote the sexual grooming of children, the murder of the mentally impaired and elderly? The extermination of Gypsies, Jews and homosexuals? No.
For myself, I'm willing to error on the side of fuck this guy.
Let him exercise his free speech rights as best he can in his country of origin.
I listened to Dershowitz' whole discussion. It was very interesting, but not very helpful to anyone looking for a clearcut answer either way.
We can make it really complicated and this Kahlil business can become yet another distraction and point of division amongst our people for years, waste a ton of resources, time and energy only to find our efforts ultimately destructive to ourselves as a united nation and corrosive to the values we stand for, which is probably what Kahlil wanted to begin with. The Kahlil supporters arguing Free Speech are not arguing in good faith anyway. They're trying to use our values against us.
If the guy was a citizen, it'd be different, but he's not.
Obviously we need to do a lot more vetting of those we let come here.
Tina Trent -just so you know. Your post suggests you do not know this so I wanted to make sure that you were aware. In this country, we have a presumption of innocence in the legal system. It is critically important that every accused, no matter how heinous the accusation, is able to defend himself from charges brought. Tricia Witz is a powerful passionate clear defender of the law. Every person who believes in the rule of law, believes that every accused should have the ability to mount the best defense possible. This is something, of course that the left does not believe in. when people were accused of #Me2CrimesItWasHardToFindDefenseBecauseTheCancerculture tried to destroy them. Same for Trump and his defense of the 2020 elections. He could not get reputable law firms to work for him. Some did initially, but the social pressure caused them to withdraw.
I assume that you understand the difference between Gertz advocating for the rule of law and defending those accused of crimes and non-citizens advocating for terrorism and supporting terrorist organizations who have no right to be in this country, but rather are here as guests. These are guests that we do not want. They have no right to be in this country. They’re being in this country is a privilege they can be revoked if they prove to be a bad guest.
If a homeowner wants to destroy his own home, that is his right. But if you invite a guest over and they begin lighting fires in your house, there’s no need for a jury trial before you kick him out.
The folks passionately defending Kahlil's rights tried to put Trump in prison for basically the same accusations.
Free the Jan 6th mob that sacked the Capitol….but protesting, on a University campus? "He must be punished!!"
This is what you get when you equate support for Palestine (or anti-Israel sentiment) with anti-Semitism: the eventual conflation of those positions with terrorism.
Up next: support for Khalil will be considered support for support of terrorism.
Perhaps there's a comparison to be made between the commenter who was just deleted and Kahlil.
Althouse believes in, allows and defends free speech in the comments, but some commenters just want to use that to destroy the blog and those people must go.
This is what you get when you equate support for American patriotism (or pro-Trump sentiment) with racism: the eventual conflation of those positions with Fascism.
Kak, I'd suggest the protesters might have gotten more sympathy from the public and the government had they not been using Hamas propaganda fliers, Hamas leadership photos on their signs, hiding their faces to intimidate their victims and avoid responsibility for their actions, taking and holding buildings, and threatening death and violence to others. Other than that, and that the Capital wasn't exactly sacked on Jan 6, though, yeah, sure, your comparison is just fine. Terrorist support is a crime.
The pro-Palestinian mob who shows up to disrupt and silence any pro-Israel speaker or critic of Islam on campuses across the country and the UK and EU (for at least the last ten years) is now fighting for free speech. So righteous.
Kakistocracy - this is not meant to be insulting but it can't help but come out that way. The people on the left of this issue on this blog are either ignorant or deceitful. I've not seen any figure of any stature or anyone here suggest that pro-terrorist demonstrations must be banned. Supporting fakestinians is pretty clearly first amendment territory. It's physically attacking innocent victims. It's preventing Jews from attending class, preventing their free movement in public spaces. These are crimes. These are not constitutionally protected.
And while protesting is legal, consequences of bad behavior is not. If you are a guest in this country you are a guest here at the pleasure of the country. The country is not obligated to host you. If your values are counter to the country's values - and modern Islam has a very big problem with women's rights, religous rights, freedom of speech, rape, murder, etc. - we don't want you in this country.
Either the leftists here don't understand that and we can help them understand by enlightening them - or they know darn well the truth and - as is routine in Communism, Marxism, Islam, etc - they are lying to obfuscate to advance their agenda.
It's physically attacking innocent victims. It's preventing Jews from attending class, preventing their free movement in public spaces. These are crimes. These are not constitutionally protected.
If he has committed a crime, then charge him with one. You assume that he must have committed a crime, but the government is not charging him with anything. They want to base his removal on his actions being detrimental to the foreign policy of the U.S. or some such nonsense.
Given his history, it is highly likely he has had contact or helped fund organizations listed a terrorist by the US Government, such as Hamas. It seems to me that the Trump administration could deport him on national security grounds. It would be extremely difficult to challange since one could argue that revealing the information would place at risk means and methods of collection and thus seriously damage US intellegence capacity in the Middle East.
"Given his history, it is highly likely he has had contact or helped fund organizations listed a terrorist by the US Government, such as Hamas."
"Highly likely" had contact/helped terrorist organizations is just a dishonest way of saying "I don't like his looks or ideas...banish him!" I thought all you Republicans types were all about "freedom" (sic) and reviling the outlawry of the oppressive government. I guess that is true only when it it's you or yours being gored by the mad bull of state. All else can (and MUST) be banished, imprisoned, or even killed!
"Politically, I think this move is brilliant. It is causing Democrats to expend a lot of political and financial capital to defend an anti-Semitic...."
I don't know if Khalil is anti-semitic or not. The term has lost nearly all meaning, as it is used automatically to smear any person who criticizes or objects the actions of the state of Israel. The exact equal false accusation is seen when any persons critical of the actions and policies of the USA as "anti-American." It is a transparent attempt to make impossible any criticism of Israel impossible for anything they do. No person and no state is entitled to complete and blanket immunity for criticism or condemnation. That is the rationale of a brute who says, "I'm the good guy, you can't punish me for beating my wife or murdering my neighbor!)
That aside, even if Khalil is an anti-semite, a person with actually believes in and cherishes the Constitutional right to freedom of speech and thought must defend even the most objective speech of those who choose to exercise their freedom of speech to as offensively as they choose...if there is no other actual crime associated with his or her speech. If Khalil is "guilty" only of speech that is offensive to some (or many), and no actual criminal deed is cited, even radical Republicans--if sincere in their reverence for the First Amendment--must defend his right to voice his opinions, however much they may hate what he says, even if his statements are anti-semitic. Those who don't are liars when they claim reverence for free speech.
Civil rights champions stood up for the free speech rights of a few nuts dressed as Nazis in Skokie years after the war was over and we had won total victory. The whole thing was an academic exercise.
I doubt a Nazi march during the war or even in the years just prior would have been received the same way.
We are in a war for western civilization and its liberal values. It's a new kind of war, but make no mistake, it's a very real war and the west ain't winning. The invasion of our territory has already happened and reinforcement is fully underway. Europe may already be lost. Let's not be like them.
Khalil is being identified in the media as a Palestinian. This is a fiction and a political ploy. His grandparents were from Tiberius, which is now part of Israel, but at the time they lived there the area was part of the British Mandate of Palestine and consisted of Muslims, Christians and Jews, all were Palestinians. Khalil‘s parents were born in Syria, a fact that the media tends to ignore to promote the fiction that he is “Palestinian“ and conceal the cynical manipulation of people as “Palestinian refugees” — warriors for Allah in perpetuity.
I suspect Khalil did not decide to dedicate his life to the destruction of Israel since he came to the United States, but this has been a life long goal. Academia is filled with Jew haters dedicated to the destruction of Israel, thanks to the generous contributions of Qatar and other Arab countries. Doubtful those dedicated to destroying Israel and the West reveal that on their visa applications however.
"Kakistocracy said...

What's your position on anti-Palestinianism? Is opposition to the Palestinian ideology less valid than being anti-Zionist?
Up next: support for Khalil will be considered support for support of terrorism.
Up next? That's exactly what it is. Maybe you should pull your head out and take a good look at what this punkass bitch actually did. It wasn't protesting.

Actually a reference to "Three Felonies A Day: How the Feds Target the Innocent" and the use of Lawfare, perfected by Democrats as per Trump.
The idea that this is only about "Free Speech" is misleading. I refer you to the Civil Rights Act of 187, which, I believe there is photographic proof he violated, and at a minimum, conspired with groups and individuals who did. Participating in illegal act as part of a protest, does not make those acts protected speech. Organizing to prevent Jewish students from going to classes and harassing potentially invokes Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO).
Errata: Civil Rights Act of 1871 -
"If two or more persons in disguise on the highway or on the premises of another, shall commit any act of violence, or intimidation, or shall do any act to prevent the free exercise of rights, such persons shall be fined or imprisoned."
Dershowitz is happy that Pam Bondi is heavily redacting those Epstein files.
