I don’t understand what is supposed to be wrong with that quote.  He’s not praising them or anything or the sort.  What is the issue exactly?[/quote]

Read the artcile.  There was more than just that.  
He is a Hamas sympathizer.  No need for more of those in this country. [/quote]

NP. I read the article and if this is the evidence against him there is nothing here. I see a writer making all sorts of interpretations and stating them as facts. The journalist interprets the guy's post about how Hamas "dealt" with children, which at worst is ambiguous and more likely sounds critical to me, as support for Hamas?? How?! And just because because a random article calls it a defense/justification of Hamas, we accept it?

Here is another passage:
 
In another post, he stated that Palestine’s elected government must sustain its resistance, legitimizing Hamas’s violent actions. Years ago, he expressed support for Hamas founder Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, posting a video saying, “This is what Hamas argues. Sheikh Yaseen giving the reasons why his group is fighting for their land which was stolen,” legitimizing Hamas’s violent actions.

Again... what? The quote in no way "legitimizes Hamas's violent actions" or even "expresses support." It reports what Hamas has said.

I have no clue whether this man is a Hamas sympathizer or not but one poorly written article, full of assumptions and illogical leaps, only proves that people didn't like him.

Insane that anyone could use that article as evidence. What is wrong with people's critical thinking skills?

[b]Why are people with sketchy associations and ambiguous social media presence being allowed to remain in the country? [/b] Out of 8 billion people on the planet how hard could it possibly be to find grad students, doctors and teaching fellows who are not sympathetic to Hamas and/or its tactics and/or directly related/connected to Hamas?

We do not need to be nuanced about this or get it perfectly right. [/quote]

1) Because the son-in-law of a terrorist is not against the law
2) because the First Amendment protects freedom of association
3) because individuals cannot be punished for the actions of someone else, and also the Due Process clause
4) because Green Card holders have first amendement rights and if he didn't incite violence (did he?) , "ambiguous" doesn't cut it.

For goodness sake, this isn't nuanced. It shouldn't be in question.

What kind of a country do you want to live in? One without due process, led by impulsive law-breaking billionaires??[/quote]
