Asaf Romirowsky Newsweek, May 12, 2025 “Mahdawi’s social media accounts are also thick with blatant and vile antisemitic incitement.” Two weeks ago, a judge ordered the release of a 34-year-old named Mohsen Mahdawi, a graduate student detained weeks earlier by Department of Homeland Security agents in Vermont.
