Social media activity in support of terrorist groups such as Hamas or Hezbollah will be viewed as hate speech and grounds for visa denial<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The US immigration will review applicants\u2019 social media accounts and deny visas or residency to individuals who post content the US President Donald Trump administration deems anti-Semitic, according to an announcement the agency made on Wednesday. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Immigration agents can use social media posts interpreted as supporting \u201canti-Semitic terrorism\u201d<\/em> to deny applications for student visas or green cards, according to the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). \u00a0<\/p>\n

Posts considered anti-Semitic will include social media activity expressing support for militant groups designated as terrorist organizations by the US, such as Hamas, Lebanon\u2019s Hezbollah, and Yemen\u2019s Houthi, USCIS said in a statement on Wednesday. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The agency \u201c will consider social media content that indicates an alien endorsing, espousing, promoting, or supporting anti-Semitic terrorism, anti-Semitic terrorist organizations, or other anti-Semitic activity as a negative factor\u201d<\/em> in determining immigration benefits, the statement said. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary for Public Affairs Tricia McLaughlin said that \u201cthere is no room\u201d<\/em> for the US to take in \u201cthe rest of the world\u2019s terrorist sympathizers,\u201d<\/em> adding that \u201cwe are under no obligation to admit them or let them stay here.\u201d<\/em> \u00a0<\/p>\n

She added that DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has made it clear that anyone who believes they can come to the US and invoke the First Amendment \u2013 the constitutional protection of free speech \u2013 to justify advocating anti-Semitic violence or terrorism is mistaken. \u201cThink again. You are not welcome here,\u201d<\/em> McLaughlin said.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

The policy takes effect immediately and applies to both student visas and applications for permanent resident \u201cgreen cards\u201d<\/em> to stay in the US. \u00a0<\/p>\n

White House to review billions in Harvard funding<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Trump campaigned last year on promises to tighten immigration policy and reverse what he viewed as his predecessor Joe Biden\u2019s lenient approach to the issue. Since taking office in January, Trump has expanded the expedited removal of illegal immigrants and denied federal funding to sanctuary jurisdictions. He has declared a national emergency, thus allowing the deployment of the armed forces to secure the border. His administration is expanding detention facilities to hold up to 30,000 migrants. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The Trump administration has already targeted foreign students participating in anti-Israel protests on US college campuses as part of its broader deportation efforts, dispatching immigration agents to detain them.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said late last month that he had stripped roughly 300 international students of their visas, and was doing so on a daily basis. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The crackdown follows a wave of pro-Palestinian protests that erupted last year at universities across the US, during which students demanded an end to Washington\u2019s support for Israel amid the war in Gaza. \u00a0<\/p>\n

The US administration has also cut millions of dollars in federal funding to leading universities, including Harvard and Columbia, accusing them of failing to adequately address anti-Semitism during the campus protests over the Gaza war.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
