"A month after the international far-right pro-Israel group Betar named Columbia University student Mohsen Mahdawi as the next target in its campaign to push for the deportation of Palestinian rights defenders, Mahdawi was arrested Monday at an immigration office in Colchester, Vermont, where he had arrived to complete a test to be a naturalized U.S. citizen. "
ICE is just the SS by another name now
More like the Gestapo tbh
If you see ICE arresting someone you are morally obligated to run them over with your car.
"he had arrived to complete a test to be a naturalized U.S. citizen.
Mahdawi, who had held a green card for 10 years, was a leader of protests at Columbia last year where students called for the school to divest from companies that benefit from Israel’s policies in the occupied Palestinian territories."
Common sense would say that he should not attract undue attention if he isn’t a citizen yet. Come into the USA, get an education, become a citizen. Not come then start protests which disrupt other students who are trying to get an education.

Common sense how? Isn’t America proudly yelling the world about being the “land of the free” and “freedom of speech” can you blame anyone for trusting a psychopathic liar

So old Bernie has dropped the ball at last. Thank you Mohsen Mahdawi for your bravery
I’ll bite: what should he do instead?

The metaphor implies that the person I replied to was fishing for someone to ask about their stupid theories, I’m saying that I bit the hook on their fishing line.
Well, some people read something different into my comment. I better delete it, before I create any more confusion…
