Khalil’s identity is substantially more complicated than the media make it appear, and the reality goes to the roots of the worldwide jihad. If
I heard and read right, the alleged leader of the antisemitic mobs at Columbia Mahmoud Khalil was born in Syria, holds an Algerian passport, and calls himself a “Palestinian.” Which is it? I get the “Algerian passport” part. Possibly the longest chapter in my long book on the invention of the “Palestinians” is on the pivotal role of Algeria in inventing this antisemitic lie. Before the war in Vietnam in the 1960s became an international cause...

Our world: The end of Mahmoud Abbas

Jerusalem Post ^
| 8/29/16 | CAROLINE B. GLICK
16 years after the failed Camp David summit, the fiction of the two-state solution is about to be shattered once and for all. The
only relevant question today, is what does Israel intend to do next? Like it or not, the day is fast approaching when the Palestinian Authority we have known for the past 22 years will cease to exist. PA leader Mahmoud Abbas's US-trained Palestinian security forces have lost control over the Palestinians cities in Judea and Samaria. His EU- and US-funded bureaucracies are about to lose control over the local governments to Hamas. And his Fatah militias...

Mr. Trump, Please Don’t Speak with Mahmoud Abbas

In less than a week, Donald Trump will become the 45th president of the United States. Many here in Israel are hopeful for a more positive relationship with Washington and greater support for Israel in its dealings with the UN and neighboring states. While
I know from the pictures of everyone coming into and out of Trump Tower that there does not seem to be a single person in America who does not want something from the incoming president, I will take the liberty of asking for one more thing: please do not talk to Mahmoud Abbas or representatives of...

Mahmoud Abbas and Other Soviet Ghosts What the revelation of Abbas’s KGB service tells us about the Russian game of subversion. September
9, 2016 Caroline GlickOriginally published by the Jerusalem Post. Channel 1’s report Wednesday that in 1983, current Palestinian Authority Chairman and PLO chief Mahmoud Abbas served as a KGB agent is hardly the story of the year, but it does remind us of certain half-forgotten facts about the Cold War that are becoming ever more relevant today. The PLO’s close and servile relationship with the KGB was first exposed in a systematic way in 1987, with the publication...

You might remember Mahmoud Khalil. He was anti-Semitic student at Columbia who SoS Marco Rubio tried to remove from the country as an undesirable. America-hating
democrats have chosen him as their cause celebre and have decided he is worthy of beatification. Khalil made the rounds with those America hating left-wing politicians for photo-ops yesterday. I had a productive meeting with Mahmoud Khalil today who was illegally detained by the Trump admin. Students continue to be wrongfully disciplined for exercising their First Amendment rights and protesting a taxpayer-funded genocide in Gaza.Our institutions shouldn’t fuel an… pic.twitter.com/8vl1nj0h49— Rep.

What’s today – Sunday? That’s the day Mahmoud Abbas threatened to cut off all ties with Israel. On Friday, he threatened to cut off all ties with the United States. On Thursday, he threatened to go to the Security Council to have Israel and the United States cut off from the United
Nations. On Wednesday, he threatened to go before the ICC, International Criminal Court to have everybody cut off and arrested. On Tuesday, through his propaganda minister Saeb Erekat who told her to “shut up,” Abbas threatened to cut off all ties with Nikki Haley. On Monday, he threatened...

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Free Speech Warrior?

Reason ^
| October 9, 2018 | Matthew Petti
When Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was president of Iran, he banned Twitter. Now he is the platform's No. 1 fan. "Any
type of restrictions on ideas and beliefs especially on #SocialMedia will lead to chaos and dictatorship. #FreedomOfSpeech," he tweeted in September. Since leaving office in 2013, the infamously repressive Ahmadinejad has become a vocal critic of current President Hassan Rouhani. Like many politicians around the world, Ahmadinejad in opposition has become a proponent of freedoms he was unwilling to extend to his own critics while in office. Ahmadinejad has developed a vocal presence on the internet since creating his Twitter in...

Who Are the Shadowy Figures Defending Mahmoud Khalil?
|
| |
City Journal ^
| 19 Mar, 2025 | Liel Leibovitz, Asaf Romirowsky
The accused Hamas sympathizer is shrouded in mystery—and so are his supporters. As
it unfurls, the saga of Mahmoud Khalil—the Columbia agitator picked up by immigration enforcement last week—looks less like a complicated immigration-law dispute and more like something out of a John le Carré novel. But inspect the details, and Khalil’s case gives us a glimpse a well-established network linking American universities, international progressive NGOs, and government agencies. This network places ideologues like Khalil in positions of power and influence and promoting radical policies that challenge both the will of American voters and our national-security interests. As always in...

Mahmoud Abbas Cheers Biden's Election

Frontpagemagazine ^
| Dec 1, 2020 | Joseph Puder
The consequences for Israel -- and for the Palestinians themselves. For
Mahmoud Abbas, the apparent election of Joe Biden as the 46th president of the United States is sheer relief. As a result of his disagreement with President Donald Trump’s “Peace of the Century,” he severed his ties with the Trump administration, and in May, he suspended the security coordination with Israel. Abbas also, among other things, refused to accept tax money Israel collected from Palestinians working in Israel that is transferred to the Palestinian Authority (PA). This has just about emptied the PA’s coffers, and brought about the near...

He is the head of the snake. There
will be the usual roundups after Wednesday's bloodshed in Tel Aviv - four dead, more wounded from the hands of Palestinian Arab terrorists. Two men are said to be responsible for this act of savagery against innocent civilians enjoying a day at the Sarona Market in the heart of town. This was Israel's mistake. The mistake was to grant respectability to a group of thugs. They were captured. They are in custody and Israel's law enforcement and security services are in the process of finding out who they are, where they came...

The Oregon shooter had a thin social media profile. On
his myspace page, Chris Harper-Mercer, 26, posted a photograph of himself holding a rifle, alongside images of masked IRA gunmen and an IRA terrorist video. The IRA and Palestinian terrorism have a long history. He has just two friends — a girl and a jihadi. Check out the terror sympathizer’s page praising: “The brave Mujahideen heroes” “The Mujahideen freedom fighters of Palestine. My brothers and sisters keep on doing your thing.

Mahmoud Khalil Paid the Dollar Bond

American Thinker ^
| 17 Jun, 2025 | Charlton Allen
The $1 bond was paid. But
for someone so eager to torch the American house, Khalil is oddly determined to keep a room in it. On Friday, the only door that opened was the one back to his cell. Mahmoud Khalil, Columbia’s most litigious Gaza sympathizer, had seemingly triumphed in federal court—only to find himself right back where he started. Down in Louisiana, where the alligators grow so mean. After days of breathless media coverage and a headline-generating injunction questioning the legality of Mahmoud Khalil’s detention, Judge Michael Farbiarz quietly reversed course. In a terse, two-page order, he declined to...

As Mahmoud Abbas nears 90, chaos looms in Judea and Samaria, with Iran exploiting the PA’s weakening grip. With
so many arenas to contend with in the current war, it almost seems that, for a moment, the chaos that characterizes Judea and Samaria is almost forgotten. The head of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas, also known as Abu Mazen, is approaching 90 and is not in good health. The PA that he has been at the head of for nearly two decades is also fundamentally corrupt and despised by the majority of his people – some due to extreme religious...

Judge rules Mahmoud Khalil can be deported

NPR ^
| 4/11/2025 | Adrian Florido
A Louisiana immigration judge ruled Friday that activist Mahmoud Khalil can be deported. Khalil,
who as a Columbia University graduate student led pro-Palestinian protests there last year, was detained last month after Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he had determined that Khalil's activism was antisemitic and that allowing him to remain in the country would undermine a U.S. foreign policy goal of combatting antisemitism around the world. During a hearing at the remote Louisiana detention center where Khalil is being held, Judge Jamee Comans said she had no authority to question Rubio's determination. After the ruling, Khalil told the...

Mahmoud Abbas: Failing the Palestinians and PeacePosted By Joseph Puder On December 29, 2014 @ 12:35 am In Daily Mailer,FrontPage | No Comments Mahmoud Abbas, (aka Abu Mazen) has been a failure as the Palestinian “Rais.” He failed to lead the Palestinian Authority (PA) toward peace with Israel, and he mismanaged the
alleged goal to achieve statehood for the Palestinians. Instead of facing the tough issues and making compromises required in negotiating peace and statehood with the Israelis, Abbas chose an alliance with the Gaza controlled terrorist group Hamas. Following Abbas’ pact with Hamas last April, Israel broke off peace negotiations with the...

Mahmoud Abbas’s Legacy Blows Up in His Face

National Review ^
| July 11, 2017 | Elliot Kaufman
The Palestinian leader’s efforts to secure a place in history appear likely to backfire in disastrous fashion. Recently,
Palestinian politics have presented more questions than answers. For instance: Why has the Palestinian Authority (PA) urged Israel to send less electricity to the Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip? Why is Egypt helping Hamas? Who is Mohammed Dahlan, and why is Hamas meeting with him? And why did one of the most astute observers of Palestinian politics just declare “the end of the so-called two-state solution”? As we shall see, this drama has more to do with Palestinian and Egyptian strategic...
