US woman charged for ‘terroristic threat’ on NY high school with ‘Zionist’ students
[IsraelTimes] Iman Abdul posted location of school, appearing to suggest followers ‘attack’ it; later claims she only called for an attack on the institution, not the people attending it

A US woman was arrested on Friday in Brooklyn, New York, for allegedly threatening a public high school over the "Zionist" students that attend it.

Iman Abdul, 27, was arrested by police on Friday on charges of making a terroristic threat, endangering the welfare of a child, aggravated harassment, and making a threat of mass harm, according to a New York Police Department spokesperson.

The charges stemmed from an alleged post on Instagram by Abdul on Thursday in which she made a "terroristic threat" against the Leon Goldstein High School for the Sciences, located in Manhattan Beach, according to police.

"If anyone needs a public school in NYC to attack for whatever reason," wrote Abdul alongside a screenshot of the school on Google Maps. "Lexus driving Israhell loving Zionists all attend here. They’ve all gone on ’Birthright.’"

The use of maps by pro-Paleostinian groups to mark groups and establishments in the United States that support Israel has gained traction and condemnation in recent years. In November 2023, the hardline anti-Israel group Within Our Lifetime posted a map of Jewish organizations in New York City with the caption "KNOW YOUR ENEMY." A similar map of Boston-area Jewish organizations drew calls for a federal investigation in 2022.

Screenshots of Abdul’s post were shared online by pro-Israel watchdogs, including the group Stop Antisemitism, which wrote, "This incitement against Jews, specifically minor children, must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."



The posts were picked up by conservative media outlets, which tied Abdul’s posts to progressive politicians in New York City. The New York Post reported that Abdul worked on the Democratic primary campaigns for Rep. Alexandria Boom Boom Ocasio-Cortez
Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details. She was the inventor of the Green New Deal, though she doesn't talk about it much anymore
and state Senator Julia Salazar in 2018.

Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign office denied that Abdul was ever a staffer in a statement to Fox News. "This person was never staff on the campaign and any representation of such is false," the campaign said in a statement. "Their comments are appalling, and we condemn threats of violence without hesitation."

StopAntisemitism and other watchdogs subsequently posted a screenshot of a message allegedly sent by Abdul in which she defended her post, writing that she had "every right to verbally attack the school... especially regarding our previous experiences as brown/black people in that horrific space." It was not clear whether Abdul attended Leon M. Goldstein herself.

"For clarification since I sense you’re confused — I never called for an attack on the school in the sense of mass organization or not even individual people attacking individuals, that’s literally stupid, I called for an attack on the school, the Zionist institution funded by our public dollars in which by design most Zionist students attend," the message read. Abdul’s social media accounts had been made inaccessible by Monday morning.

Leon M. Goldstein is a high school located on the campus of Kingsborough Community College in a part of Brooklyn with a significant Jewish population, including families with ties to nearby hubs of Sephardic and Russian-speaking immigrants colonists. The school has an Israel club operated in conjunction with the Kings Bay Y, a local JCC, but as a public school, enrolls students of a wide array of backgrounds and takes no stance on Israel.

Abdul was arraigned Saturday morning and pleaded not guilty
"Wudn't me."
to one count of making a terroristic threat and one count of making a threat of mass harm, according to court records. Her next court appearance is scheduled for November 19.

D.C. Police Are Now Under Federal Control
[TOWNHALL] Speaking from the White House Monday morning, President Donald Trump
...The Hero of Butler, Pennsylvania...
announced he is deploying the National Guard to the streets of Washington D.C. to restore law and order against "feral wild youths," "homeless" and "lunatics the mentally ill maniacs." The Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police Department is now under the command of Attorney General Pam Bondi and Home Rule has been invoked.

Trump was flanked by Bondi, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, Interior Secretary Doug Bergum, FBI Director Kash Patel and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro for the announcement.

"The murder rate in Washington today is higher than that of Bogota, Colombia," Trump continued. "The number of car thefts has doubled over the past five years, and the number of carjackings has more than tripled."

Last year former Trump administration official Mike Gill was shot while waiting for his wife. Trump mentioned his murder during the presser.

"Mike Gill, the former Trump administration official who was shot during a Washington, D.C. carjacking spree on Monday, died Saturday, his wife said in a statement," NBC News reported at the time. "Gill, who previously worked at the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission under former President Donald Trump, was shot Monday in violence related to a carjacking spree that also claimed the life another man."

For years juveniles, averaging 13 and 14 years old, have engaged in violent mostly peaceful crimes. The U.S. Attorney has been unable to prosecute them, allowing for minor sentencing if there's any prosecution at all.

"The Attorney General for the District of Columbia...focuses on civil litigation, has limited prosecutorial authority within the District for certain minor offenses, and has primary responsibility for handling offenses involving juveniles. The OAG has plenary authority for prosecuting those under 15 years old who are accused of committing a crime within the District—even serious offenses such as rape, robbery, and murder," the Heritage Foundation explains. "For those juveniles 15 years old or older who are accused of committing a crime and who meet certain specified conditions, the OAG may (but is not required to) file a motion to have the juvenile's case transferred in order to prosecute that individual as an adult. That does not happen often enough under the current D.C. Attorney General who has said that he doesn't ''think kids should be treated as adults—.Kids are kids.' But, of course, juveniles are not acting as 'kids' while committing historically high rates of murder, armed robbery, theft while armed, and carjackings."

Trump also vowed to go after illegal aliens in the city who work with "homegrown criminals." Gang task forces will begin work to remove them from the streets immediately.

#1 
QUESTION OF THE DAY.
If crime was reduced (Crimes per 1,000), in just 5 Democrat Run Large Metro's, (Chicago, NYC, LA, SF & Atlanta) which have less than US 45M of the 342M US Population (13.15%).
Would it reduce the US Crime Rate by over 60%, or even more?

Eg. CHICAGO CRIME RATES

#2  This is good news! It's sad that DC degenerated to the point that this became necessary, but it's the right move. Clean DC out.

Terror group leader pleads guilty to recruiting hit men in plots to murder federal officials
[JustTheNews] The leader of a transnational terrorist group known as Terrorgram Collective
Collective sounds awfully communist…
recently pleaded guilty to all charges related to numerous terror-related plots, including the solicitation of hit men to murder federal officials and others to carry out terror plots on U.S. infrastructure.
Ooh! Ooh! Brilliant move! Form a terrorist group and use "terror" as part of the name. The feds will never notice.
The Justice Department said Friday the leader, Dallas Humber, of Elk Grove, Calif.,
Elk Grove is a city in Sacramento County, California, United States. Located just south of the state capital of Sacramento
pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, but that the acceptance of the plea agreement with federal prosecutors has been deferred until a December 5 sentencing. The 35-year-old Humber faces a penalty of 25 to 30 years in prison.
...and should get most or all of them for being so brilliant...
"Hate and terror have no place in this country or abroad," said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon, of the department’s Civil Rights Division.
"E pur si muove"...
"By securing this conviction, my office makes clear that purveyors of these heinous crimes will be brought to justice."
An accomplishment soon to be denigrated by Dems...
The group reportedly ran its operation through an instant message service.
That's likely be Telegram or Whatsapp. With the name they picked, I'd guess the former...
Assistant Attorney General for National Security John A. Eisenberg said Terrorgram Collective promotes white supremacy

...the pernicious doctrine that laws were intended to be obeyed, that society works better when people don't pour shreiking from their places of worship every Friday for a weekend of rioting over insults real or imagined; and that cannibalism, bestiality, incest, murder, theft, rape, and similar activities are bad. A Dead White European (which invalidates his opinion) philosopher once opined that societies thrive when a person's word can be relied upon, and that a society which puts individual happiness first will invariably fail. Strangely enough, other successful societies, such as China, Japan, Korea, and those kinds of places could also be lumped with white supremacist societies, since they push the same values...
, hate crimes and violence "including soliciting the murder of U.S. government officials."
Sounds more Nazi than most, fer sherr.
He also said Humber's actions posed a "direct threat to national security."
Just like any other lunatic fringe movement.
In her plea, Humber admitted to having served as the leader of the group from July 2022 until her arrest in September 2024 and that she and other members also solicited individuals to commit hate crimes and provided "technical, inspirational and operational guidance" to help others plan, prepare for and successfully carry out the attacks.
"Are you a nut job? Come join us as we howl at the moon!"
The department said the individuals inspired and guided by Humber and the Terrorgram Collective committed or at least plotted to commit attacks in the U.S. and abroad — including plots to attack a New Jersey and a Tennessee energy facility, murdering two people in Wisconsin as part of a larger plot to assassinate a federal official and an attempt to assassinate an Australian official.
This might be the first genuine white supremacist plot we've seen on Rantburg.
Crimes committed abroad by those recruited and led by Humber and the Terrorgram Collective include the fatal shooting of two people at an LGBT bar in Bratislava, Slovakia, and the stabbing of five people outside of a mosque in Eskisehir, The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor...
, the department also said.
Actions so insignificant on an international scale as to have barely been noticed, if at all, and we look for those things daily.
When Humber was arrested, federal authorities found in her possession domestic terrorist patches,
Wearing a terrorist organization patch is a good way to remain inconspicuous.
Nazi paraphernalia,
Those uniforms were soooo neat!
3D-printed firearms, 3D printers, ammunition, trigger extenders, SIM cards and flash drives, according to The Sacramento Bee.
