In Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Nexus Project and other Jewish groups vocally condemned the arrest of pro-Palestinian protestor Mahmoud Khalil. The Nexus statement, while expressing concern about antisemitism and the tome of campus protests, said, “Authoritarian federal overreach and apparent disregard for due process only makes Jews less safe.” NYJA likewise condemned campus antisemitism but added, regarding Khalil’s arrest, “This kind of authoritarian action is incompatible with our vision for immigrant rights and a pluralistic democracy.”
