Anti-Israel activist Nerdeen Kiswani led a demonstration in Brooklyn, New York over the weekend in which she lambasted the local police department, claimed US President Joe Biden will soon die, and called for the destruction of Israel.
The rally took place to commemorate so-called Nakba Day — meant to commemorate the Palestinian “Nakba,” or “catastrophe,” of the establishment of the modern state of Israel in 1948, when the nascent Jewish state defeated several invading Arab armies and won its independence.
Kiswani mounted herself on top of a car and led a sea of anti-Israel demonstrators in a series of chants against both Israel and the US.
The rally was first reported by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

“Biden is the oldest president in our entire history,” Kiswani said, “He is going to die soon!”
The crowd immediately erupted in raucous cheers and applause at the prospect of Biden’s death. Kiswani then predicted that the next generation of politicians will be more receptive to the goal of eliminating Israel.
“His generation will die with him, so we already know that the future is on our side. The world can get on board, or they can be on the wrong side of history,” Kiswani continued.
The activist then condemned the New York City Police Department (NYPD) and accused the officers of wanting to harm women and children. She then drew an equivalency between the NYPD, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), and the Ku Klux Klan.
“Today, this occupying army came into our community. Repeat after me! Today, these fascist pigs came into our community so they can punch hijabis, so they can rip shirts off of women, so they can terrorize children, acting like the Israeli army that they share tactics with,” Kiswani chanted.
“They learn these tactics and share these tactics with the Israeli army, so when we say, ‘NYPD, KKK, IDF — they’re all the same,’ we mean it,” Kiswani added.
Kiswani then started a series of chants calling for the destruction of Israel as well as for what many observers interpret as the extermination of Jews there.
“No more pigs in our community! No more Israel in Palestine! No more Zionists in Palestine!”
Kiswani has emerged as a prominent figure in the anti-Israel movement in recent months. The “Within Our Lifetime” leader has repeatedly called for violence against Israel and has glorified the leaders of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a designated terrorist group. Kiswani was banned from Columbia University’s campus in New York City last month after leading chants calling for an “intifada,” or violent uprising.
