Columbia Grad Student Wins Habeas Hearing After Telling People He Was Involved in Murdering Jews In Israel, and That He Likes To Kill Jews

Potential deportee and Columbia grad student Mohsen Mahdawi won a habeas hearing yesterday.  

That perhaps temporary victory should not obscure the truly blockbuster revelation in the judge’s opinion, that Mahdawi was reported to the authorities and investigated by the FBI in 2015 after he told a gun store owner that he was involved in murdering Jews in Israel, and telling another individual that he liked to kill Jews, all why eyeing various firearms. 

The judge, seemingly intent on teaching the Trump administration a lesson did not take these statements very seriously, but 

(a) Mahdawi should have been referred to ICE for deportation in 2015; and 

(b) if he can’t be deported now, something is very wrong with our immigration system. 

Meanwhile, I won’t bother linking to the Times’ story on the habeas ruling but, no surprise, no mention of Mahdawi’s love of Jew-killing.

GO READ THE WHOLE THING. 

What did we used to call guys who couldn't defend themselves on the playground? 

Pussies, Wusses, Queers, etc.

The United States can't defend itself on the playground.
