""It really made me feel even more vulnerable than I already do as a Palestinian activist," says Kiswani, co-founder of the group Within Our Lifetime."
""It's truly shocking, what they've been able to get away with," Kiswani says of extreme Zionist groups like the Jewish Defense League. "It's just been ignored for far too long, so it's good to finally have some accountability.""
Nerdeen Kiswani, a Palestinian American activist, faced an assassination attempt when New Jersey man Alexander Heifler was arrested for plotting to firebomb her home. Heifler is associated with the JDL 613 Brotherhood, a group linked to the Jewish Defense League, which the FBI designates as a terrorist organization. Kiswani expressed feelings of vulnerability and emphasized the impunity with which extremist Zionist groups operate, calling for accountability for their actions against pro-Palestine advocates.
