Pro-Palestinian activist Nerdeen Kiswani has filed a federal lawsuit against Betar Zionist Organization, a far-right pro-Israel group, alleging threats and intimidation against her. The lawsuit was filed weeks before a New Jersey man was arrested for plotting a Molotov cocktail attack on her home. It alleges a monthslong campaign of stalking, intimidation, and racially motivated threats, including offers of cash rewards for anyone physically harming her. On Thursday, Alexander Heifler was charged with unlawful possession of destructive devices and manufacturing destructive devices, each of which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. The cases highlight heightened tensions between the Israel-Hamas war and the potential for violent incidents in the U.S.
