Report outlines alleged extremist ties, chronological contradictions for pro-Palestinian activist

Mahdawi is a Columbia graduate student and prominent pro-Palestinian campus activist who originally moved to the United States from the West Bank as a student, became a lawful permanent resident.

Researchers David Collier and Rachel Feldman have released a 101-page investigative report detailing a timeline of Mohsen Mahdawi, a Columbia University student and pro-Palestinian activist facing deportation proceedings. The report challenges Mahdawi's autobiographical narrative and presents evidence suggesting his online activity and statements contradict his public persona as a peaceful campus activist.

Key findings include Mahdawi's previous statements glorifying violence, his explicit wish for the annihilation of Jews, and his support for terrorist organizations. The report emphasizes that Mahdawi's timeline is built on documentary evidence and contemporary records, questioning the veracity of his public biography.
