Khalil, a pro-Palestinian activist known for leading student protests at Columbia University, is facing deportation proceedings in the United States, following his detention in Louisiana under executive orders aimed at prohibiting anti-Semitism. His case has garnered attention due to his involvement in nationwide demonstrations advocating for Palestinian rights and has sparked discussions about the legal grounds for deporting a green card holder. A recent judicial intervention by Judge Jesse Furman has temporarily halted Khalil's deportation, highlighting the complexities of immigration law in cases involving activism and political expression.
