"Court won't revisit ruling opening door to pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil's rearrest

A divided federal appeals court ​on Friday declined ‌to reconsider a ruling in Columbia University ​graduate Mahmoud Khalil's case ​that opened the door ⁠to President Donald ​Trump's administration re-arresting and ​deporting the pro-Palestinian activist.

The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court ​of Appeals ​on a 6-5 vote rejected ‌Khalil's ⁠request to revisit a ruling a 2-1 panel of the ​Philadelphia-based ​court ⁠delivered in January that had ​concluded a lower-court ​judge ⁠had no jurisdiction to order his ⁠release ​from immigration ​detention last year."

“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.”

Good interview
“Rejecting the self-determination of the Jewish people on the Palestinian land in itself is not antisemitism, you are denying other people’s rights in the land.”
