Alan Dershowitz Says Detained Israel Protester Should ‘Be Treated the Way We Treat Nazis’ and ‘Kept Away From His Wife and His Baby’
Former Harvard Law School professor and Jeffrey Epstein lawyer Alan Dershowitz called for detained Israel protester Mahmoud Khalil to be “treated the way we treat Nazis” and “kept away from his wife and baby” on Wednesday.
Asked on Newsmax whether Khalil had committed any crimes with his protests against Israel, Dershowitz claimed:
Well, he certainly committed a lot of moral offenses. I mean, he supported Hamas, he supported the rapes, he supported the murders, beheadings, he supported fire bombings. He certainly is no better than the Nazis who marched in Skokie. You know, whether or not he has a First Amendment right as a Green Card holder is one thing, but why should anybody support him? When they supported the right of Nazis to speak in Skokie back in 1977 when I was on the board of the National Civil Liberties Union, nobody supported the Nazis. They all said they were despicable, terrible, terrible people, but maybe they have the right to speak. People should say the same thing about Khalil. He’s a despicable, horrible person. He should be kept away from his wife and his baby the way he kept Israelis away from– supported Hamas killing children, killing babies. He’s not somebody who should be admired or supported, and yet too many people have not only supported his right to speak, but supported the despicable content of his speech.
The former Epstein lawyer argued, “So he ought to be treated the way we treat Nazis. We maybe give them the right to free speech, but we certainly despise them, hate them, don’t wish them well, and don’t express sympathy for them, their wives, or their babies. This is not a man who deserves any sympathy.”
He concluded, “We may deserve his First Amendment protection so that we can hear him make his despicable statements, but he deserves nothing but the most utter contempt.”
