(NY Post) Anti-Israel campus leader Mahmoud Khalil was ripped Thursday over his attempt to “justify” the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terror attacks in a recent interview — with elected officials saying it boosts the Trump administration’s case seeking to kick him out of the country.
New York and national officials condemned Khalil for his statements seemingly sympathizing with Hamas’ rationale for the cowardly assault on Israel that killed more than 1,200 people and took another 251 hostage in Gaza.
“Mahmoud Khalil must be immediately deported,” Upstate New York Rep. Elise Stefanik told the Post.
The Republican congresswoman has long lambasted Khalil, a green card holder, for his role in fomenting virulent anti-Israel protests at Columbia University.
