Mahmoud Khalil's "Ice" Adventure: A Frosty Tale of Bureaucratic Bungle

Mahmoud Khalil, that brave soul from Columbia, got a taste of Uncle Sam's hospitality in the form of an extended stay at the I-C-E Hotel, compliments of the White House's VIP List for Vocal Critics.
And what was Khalil's offense? He spoke out of turn, dared to critique the Israeli jaunt in Gaza. Now that's a party foul. Apparently, free speech comes with a free trip to an Arctic-themed jail, no return ticket included.
After a chill-inducing 100+ days, Khalil finally gets to break ice with his family. Talk about your frosty family reunions. It must be heartwarming to know that your government has the warmth of a glacier when it comes to allowing dissent.
But hey, let's not frost over the silver lining here: at least Khalil didn't melt away into oblivion; he emerged, maybe a bit more cynical but definitely still breathing. It's a true testament to the American dream: speak up and you might just get to cool off in a government facility.
