US judge orders deportation of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil

A U.S. immigration judge has ordered the deportation of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil. The judge's decision was based on allegations that Khalil had omitted information on his green card application. Khalil, who has lived in the United States for over two decades, faces the prospect of being deported to either Algeria or Syria. The judge's ruling comes amid ongoing concerns about the treatment of Palestinian activists and their rights in the U.S. The case has drawn significant attention, with advocacy groups and human rights organizations expressing concerns about the potential implications for freedom of speech and political expression. Khalil's lawyers have stated that they will appeal the decision, arguing that the charges against him are unfounded and that his deportation would violate his constitutional rights. The outcome of this case is likely to have broader implications for the rights and protections afforded to immigrant activists and their ability to freely express their political views in the United States.
