Palestine Legal is deeply appalled by last week's foiled assassination plot against Nerdeen Kiswani, a 31-year-old Palestinian activist and mother who has been a prominent voice and organizer for Palestinian liberation in New York City for over a decade.

We stand in solidarity with Nerdeen, a former Palestine Legal client who was president of City University of New York’s Staten Island campus Student for Justice in Palestine group—and with all activists who speak out for Palestinian freedom.
