>If you think Israel is controlling the US and getting them to arrest peaceful Palestinian protesters or that they somehow made it illegal to protest Israel then you've lost all critical thinking skills. I think the situation is also not as simple as lawbreakers being investigated for breaking the law. What law did Mahmoud Khalil break to get himself arrested? The administration basically accused him of hate speech while being here on a Visa, not of breaking the peace or throwing rocks. The case in the article is different; with a very clear crime he should have been properly investigated for by NYPD. But this news is in the context of several other cases around these protests, and so attention to the lengths NYPD went to here is newsworthy. Let me be clear, I agree wholeheartedly statements like "Israel controls the US" are an antisemitic trope that can be dismissed out of hand. But "protests against important US ally Israel have special attention from law enforcement agencies" - that's very different, and seems like it might have evidence here.
