> free speech rights of our students
Based on the article, a foreigner is being denied entry to the US. Every country has the right to do this for whatever reason they see fit. Most countries don't allow foreigners to protest, see Egypt and the March to Gaza a few days ago...
Free speech is a human right not a right of citizens. You conflate several issues here under the notion of national rights: legitimate border concerns, deportation of students as retaliation of free speech (under your umbrella term foreign protest), increasing authoritarianism in the US (which this is clearly evidence of). Nor should we take cues from governments suppressing protests against genocide. Genocide is something all people and all countries should unite against. It is a crime against humanity.
