Beware: Mahmoud Khalil Is A Fabricated Free Speech Crisis
Trump deporting Khalil is perfectly legal and concerns national security.
The American globalist controlled news media is once again fabricating a free speech crisis—this time concerning Mahmoud Khalil by deliberately shaping the narrative, casting Khalil as a simple green card holder who advocates for Palestinian rights. The reality is that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has determined that he poses a national security threat due to his support for Hamas, a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization.
Yet the globalist media machine wants the public to believe that this is about Trump suppressing free speech and being a dictator(yawn). It’s a dangerous propaganda campaign designed to distract from the real issue: Khalil’s involvement with those that have openly called for the collapse of Western civilization. Read all details below.
We must remain vigilant in seeking out trustworthy information sources that are not controlled by the captured corporate media who have repeatedly shown they will twist the facts to serve their goals. Don’t fall for it—truth is not what they sell, it’s chaos for their Great Reset.
Deporting Hamas Supporters Like Mahmoud Khalil Is Perfectly Legal— A green card is not synonymous with citizenship.
Major points from this article above by attorney Erielle Azerrad specializing in anti-terrorism litigation:
Former Columbia graduate student Mahmoud Khalil, a Syrian-born green-card recipient, served as one of the ringleaders of the post-October 7 riots at Columbia University and functioned as the lead “negotiator” for the student group known as Columbia United Apartheid Divest (CUAD)—one of the primary agents of chaos during last spring’s violent riots.
Interestingly, recent court filings show that Khalil received his green card just five months ago—long after he and CUAD wreaked havoc (11 days after Trump’s election).
For noncitizens, residing in the United States is a coveted privilege, not a right. A green card is not synonymous with citizenship. Indeed, the federal government has the power to revoke a green card at any time.
Under U.S. immigration law, noncitizens or “aliens”—including green-card holders like Khalil—are expected to meet a certain standard of behavior set forth by the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Failure to do so renders them “deportable aliens” under 8 U.S.C. § 1227.
CUAD’s words clearly identified the organization as “fighting for the total eradication of Western civilization.” It insisted that members must “continue to escalate until the empire crumbles,” and noted that they were inspired by the “Palestinian resistance”—AKA Hamas.
Hamas was designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the State Department in 1997.
The Department of Homeland Security alleges that Khalil, in similar fashion, distributed pro-Hamas flyers on Columbia University’s campus bearing the Hamas insignia, originating from Hamas’s own media arm.
Additionally, the Secretary of State can seek the deportation of an alien if the Secretary “has reasonable ground to believe [that the presence or activities of an alien] would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States.”
Furthermore, Secretary of State Marco Rubio was reportedly presented with intelligence concluding that Khalil poses a national security threat to the United States, which would provide yet another basis for removal under the INA.
Relevant to Khalil’s case, U.S. law stipulates that an alien is deportable if he “endorses or espouses terrorist activity or persuades others to endorse or espouse terrorist activity or support a terrorist organization.”
Crucially, “support” for a terrorist organization need not be monetary—publicly supporting a terrorist organization in a capacity ordinarily described as “speech” may still render an alien deportable.
Such restraints do not violate First Amendment case law. The Supreme Court has long held that some classes of individuals—including students, prisoners, members of the Armed Forces, and foreigners—may be subjected to certain restrictions on their speech.
The Court declared in Turner v. Williams that some views may be “so dangerous to public welfare that aliens who hold and advocate them would be undesirable additions to our population.”
Likewise, Governments “cannot be denied the power of self-preservation,” and thus they have the right to deport individuals, like Khalil, who support foreign terrorist organizations and the destruction of Western civilization.
Examples of this precedent:
In 2018, the Sixth Circuit upheld a decision by immigration courts denying entry to an alien who had copied and distributed flyers on behalf of two Iranian terrorist organizations.
Similarly, in 2014, the Ninth Circuit upheld an immigration court finding that an alien had provided support to Mojahedin-e Khalq—later designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization—after he had produced flyers and written articles in support.
Despite his defenders’ claims, Khalil’s alleged activities make his deportation perfectly legal—and reasonable—under federal law. Doing so is consistent with what the Supreme Court has called the government’s “power of self-preservation” against those who seek its destruction, as Khalil’s organization has so readily advocated.
Appeals to Khalil’s free speech rights are meritless. Despite the unfounded outrage, Khalil’s deportation is an instance of America exercising the right to protect itself against foreign threats—precisely as it should.
This case shatters the mainstream narrative that Trump is a dictator trampling the First Amendment. The media’s strategy is clear—misdirect public perception by portraying Mahmoud Khalil as a mere advocate for Palestinian rights, ignoring his well-documented ties to Hamas and CUAD’s radical agenda to dismantle Western civilization.
His actions go far beyond protected speech. U.S. law explicitly states that endorsing, promoting, or materially supporting a terrorist organization is grounds for deportation. Khalil’s role in distributing pro-Hamas propaganda and leading riots at Columbia University fits that definition. Yet, instead of acknowledging this, the establishment spins his case into a fabricated free speech crisis.
Notably, Khalil’s resume links him to the United Nations—a detail that raises further questions about his broader affiliations and the geopolitical stakes at play. (see more on this below) Against the backdrop of escalating tensions in Syria, where globalist interests have long sought to destabilize the region, this case should be seen for what it is: another pawn move in their relentless push toward war, upheaval, destabilization, deconstruction and power. America has every right to defend itself against subversive actors, and Khalil’s deportation is not an authoritarian overreach—it’s a necessary step in maintaining national security.
Mahmoud Khalil only recently immigrated to the U.S. on a student visa in 2022, securing a green card in 2024—an expedited timeline that raises questions given his prior affiliations with the British government and the United Nations.
It’s not typical for a foreign student to secure a green card as quickly as Mahmoud Khalil did. The standard process for transitioning from a student visa (F-1) to permanent residency (green card) in the U.S. generally takes several years and follows specific pathways, such as employer sponsorship (via an H-1B work visa), family sponsorship, asylum, or other special provisions.
More Reasons Why Khalil's Case Raises Questions
Rapid Transition – Khalil arrived on a student visa in 2022 and obtained a green card in 2024, an unusually fast timeline for most applicants who often wait years.
Lack of Clear Sponsorship – The available information does not indicate an employer or family member sponsoring his green card, which would typically be required unless he applied through a special exemption.
Political and Diplomatic Ties – His past employment with the British government and the United Nations (UNRWA)—both entities deeply involved in international political and humanitarian efforts—raises questions about whether his immigration status received preferential treatment.
Marriage Timing – Khalil married a U.S. citizen in 2023, but his green card was reportedly granted in 2024, making it unclear if his marriage played a role in the process.
National Security Considerations – Given his involvement with CUAD, a radical activist group, and his alleged ties to Hamas, his swift legal status adjustment could suggest political or institutional backing.
While some expedited immigration cases occur under special circumstances, Khalil’s unusually rapid transition from student visa holder to green card recipient—especially with his British government and UN ties—raises legitimate concerns about how and why his case was handled so quickly.
Given his direct involvement in radical campus activism. His leadership role as a negotiator for CUAD at Columbia University, coupled with his internship at UNRWA, a UN agency long scrutinized for its ties to Hamas, further deepens concerns.
Mahmoud Khalil’s timeline, affiliations, and suspiciously rapid green card approval suggest that he may not be just a passionate student activist but rather a foreign-linked, strategically embedded agitator. Given the pattern of Soros-funded operations infiltrating universities, it is not unreasonable to question whether Khalil’s presence at Columbia was part of a broader agenda to stoke unrest and weaken Western institutions from within.
Ties to the United Nations & UNRWA – Khalil interned for UNRWA, an organization that has faced repeated allegations of providing material support to Hamas, employing radicals, and even having staff involved in the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel. His connection to this agency reinforces the concern that his activism is not grassroots but strategically placed.
Possible Foreign Influence (George Soros & Open Society Networks?) – The tactics of CUAD—escalating campus disruptions, pushing anti-Western narratives, and aligning with militant movements—closely mirror the color revolution-style tactics backed by Soros-funded networks. Open Society Foundations has a long history of funding “grassroots” activism that aligns with globalist interests, including movements aimed at destabilizing national governments and conservative institutions.
Pattern of Elite Support for Agitators – Figures like Khalil often emerge in well-funded protest movements, enjoying legal protections, media sympathy, and elite institutional backing. The speed of his immigration approval, his United Nations internship, and his high-profile role in a radical student group all point to a strategic placement rather than an organic student activist.
Role in CUAD & Anti-Western Agitation – CUAD’s open advocacy for the “eradication of Western civilization”, as well as its internationalist, anti-capitalist rhetoric, suggests an agenda beyond student activism. Khalil’s central role as a negotiator positioned him as a key player in orchestrating campus unrest.
Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Colonial Framework – Khalil’s advocacy was not just about Palestine but rooted in broader Marxist and anarchist movements that reject Western institutions, police, and borders—exactly what CUAD promoted.
No matter how deeply deception spreads, truth remains unshaken. Lies may dominate the airwaves, but they can never overcome what is real and right. As believers, we stand firm in the assurance that truth prevails.
