Authorities say they foiled an alleged Molotov cocktail attack targeting a pro-Palestinian activist in Hoboken, leading to the arrest of Alexander Heifler, 26.
According to investigators, Heifler constructed multiple incendiary devices and planned to “go after” an activist. Law enforcement sources identified the intended target as Nerdeen Kiswani, though she is not named in the complaint. Kiswani later confirmed she had been warned by authorities.
“Late last night the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force informed me that a plot against my life that was “about to” take place, and that agents had conducted an operation in Hoboken related to this plot. For months, Zionist organizations like Betar and politicians like Randy Fine have encouraged violence against my family and me. I will have more to say as additional details come to light. I will not stop speaking up for the people of Palestine. Thank you for your support.”
Officials say an undercover New York Police Department officer infiltrated a group chat and witnessed Heifler assembling eight Molotov cocktails, prompting his arrest.
Authorities believe the attack was imminent. The Federal Bureau of Investigation said there is no ongoing threat to the public.
Hoboken Mayor Emily B. Jabbour said there is “no danger to residents and no ongoing threat.”

Why is he an extremist???
You get one alleged idiot and that takes away the thousands and thousands and thousands and thousands of atrocities done by the yemach shmomnikers.
When a jew goes after a radical Islamist,it is as rare a case as man bites dog.But when islamists go after jews that is more like rabid dog bites man.And all the publicity from this seems to equal the latter.
it doesn’t sound terribly convincing.
