Fiery assassination plot against prominent Palestinian activist Nerdeen Kiswani foiled by NYPD intel, FBI

A New Jersey man’s assassination plot to firebomb a prominent Palestinian activist’s home with Molotov cocktails was dramatically foiled Thursday after a months-long NYPD intelligence bureau probe, officials and sources said.

Federal agents raided Alexander Heifler’s home in Hoboken on Thursday after he allegedly schemed to attack Nerdeen Kiswani — the founder of the pro-Palestinian group Within Our Lifetime — and flee to Israel, sources said.

Not surprised that someone chose to retaliate.
