7. Maybe an unpopular opinion, but the dude HATES the U.S. Not sure why he wants to stay?

I don't think he should be rewarded with citizenship. Him and his family should move elsewhere.

8. How so? I read he has not said he hates the U.S. Criticism is not hate. Many citizens now

hate trump's version of U.S. "While Khalil may critique U.S. policies, there is no evidence to suggest he harbors personal hatred towards the USA. His comments reflect a desire for change rather than animosity."

[neohippie]

9. Protesting a country's policy is not the same as hating a country

How can you say that he hates the US He is a legal resident with a family here.

Just because you protest a countries policy decisions or even actions doesn't mean you hate a country

Are you making an assumption about what he hates?

[choie]

10. Wow. He hates our complicity in

what Israel is doing to the Palestinians I and don't blame him a fucking bit.

And now we're going to prevent people from becoming citizens because of their political beliefs? I guess trump has won.

[MichMan]

12. Is the court ordering he be declared a citizen?

16. I saw this in an email from the ACLU.

The writer seemedquite giddy, which is certainly appropriate when the release actually happens. But I'm waiting until then to get giddy.

18. I did see that
