US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday to combat anti -Semitism and pledged the deportation of non -citizen university students and others who participated in the protests supporting the Palestinians.
The Fact newspaper about the matter is “taking immediate action” by the US Department of Justice to prosecute “terrorist threats, intentional burning, sabotage and violence against American Jews”, and Marshal all federal resources to combat what was called “the explosion of anti -Semitism in our deprivation and the science of our universities and the streets.” Since October 7, 2023, an attack on Israel by the Palestinian Islamic Group Hamas.
“For all resident foreigners who joined the protests in support of jihadism, transferring you on a notice: Come 2025, we will find you and we will find you,” Trump said in the fact newspaper.
The president said: “I will quickly cancel the student visas for all sympathizers of Hamas on the campus of universities, which were created in radicalism unprecedented.”
Rights and legal scholars said that the new procedure will violate the rights of constitutional freedom of expression, and is likely to face legal challenges.
“The first amendment protects every person in the United States, including foreign citizens studying in American universities,” said Carrie Dikm, chief staff at the Colombia’s first amendment Institute. “The deportation of non -citizens on the basis of their political discourse will be unconstitutional.”
The Council of American Islamic Relations, a major Muslim advocacy group, said it would consider challenging the matter in court if Trump tries to implement it.
Hamas attacks and the subsequent Israeli attack on the Palestinian coastal pocket in Gaza led to several months of protests in support of the Palestinians who wandered on the campus of American universities. Civil rights groups have documented an increase in hate crimes and accidents directed at Jews, Muslims, Arabs and other Middle Eastern people.

It calls for inventory and analysis of all court cases that include schools, colleges and universities from kindergarten to the twelfth grade and the alleged violations of civil rights related to the pro -Palestinian campus protests, which may lead to measures to remove “foreign students and employees”.
Many pro -Palestinian demonstrators denied supporting Hamas or engaging in anti -Semitic acts, saying they were demonstrating against Israel’s military attack on Gaza, where health authorities say more than 47,000 people were killed.
Maya Perry, Executive Director of the American Arab Institute, a non -party group of civil rights, said that the group was severely turbulent due to the clear confusion of Israel’s criticism of alleged anti -Semitism. Perry said it will have a chilling effect on freedom of expression throughout the United States
