Anyone that's on a visa and is spreading anti American rhetoric should probably be deported. Having a visa to the US is a privilege, not a right, and it comes with conditions. It's not a free pass for foreign insurgents.

Though I think this is a false equivalence: pro Palestinian demonstrations include burning the American flag. Pro Israeli include raising and honoring it. These are not the same.

Edit: I forgot to comment about the "you can no longer protest them" part. You can most definitely protest Israel (and the US) in US universities. However, if you're on a visa and defy the terms of your visa by e.g. assaulting students, destroying university property, and supporting terrorist organizations you may get deported.

Okay, this is bad. You are using a tech forum to advocate for deportation of those you disagree with. I hope the mods see this and take the appropriate action.
