activist Palestine

Khalil Mahmoud is a Palestinian activist and a Columbia University student known for his significant involvement in the pro-Palestinian student protest movement. Born in a Palestinian refugee camp in Syria and holding Algerian citizenship, he became a U.S. lawful permanent resident in 2022. Mahmoud has been in the news following a ruling by an immigration judge allowing for his potential deportation, a decision influenced by a letter from U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio that cited concerns over his activism and its implications for U.S. foreign policy. His case has raised questions about freedom of speech and due process in the context of immigration law.
