Columbia Anti-Israel Activist Detained by ICE After Trump's Threat to Universities That Allow Illegal Protests'
"The recent arrest of Mahmoud Khalil underscores federal actions against anti-Israel sentiments on college campuses amid heightened political tensions."
Mahmoud Khalil, a former Columbia University student known for his participation in anti-Israel protests, was detained by federal agents soon after President Trump threatened to cut funding to colleges harboring illegal demonstrations.

This incident occurs amidst broader efforts to curb anti-Semitism and limit protest actions at educational institutions based on executive orders from the Trump administration.
