At least i acknowledge my source is wild-eyed, still I'm sure there are some facts mixed into both.

So you win!
I'm not interested in Corey Robin's views about whether Israel is Trumpish (Bibi is) or a democracy, and neither are you. You are only talking about them in order to avoid talking about what we were talking about. The point is, a Columbia professor on a trip to observe human rights was deported. If that's not correct, so much the better.
