Alireza Doroudi, a PhD student at the University of Alabama and Iranian citizen, was reportedly abducted by the US government and detained in Louisiana. His attorney stated that Doroudi has not been charged with any crime and is focused solely on his academic pursuits. The situation is compounded by a lack of transparency from the Department of Homeland Security, which labeled him a national security concern without elaboration. Doroudi's case highlights broader issues regarding the treatment of international students and government overreach fueled by geopolitical tensions.
In the words of his fiancé, he is a nerd. All he does is study and is literally trying to fulfill his dream.
So far, there is no evidence that Doroudi wrote or said anything about Israel's genocidal war on the people of Gaza.
Doroudi's arrest is yet more evidence that their entire "antisemitic administration against antisemitism" battle plan is something they can take or leave.
The Department of Homeland Security has said about the arrest is that he "posed significant national security concerns," without giving details.
