Hateful call to ‘attack' NYC Jewish high school probed by NYPD
A Brooklyn woman who worked as a youth organizer for 'Squad' Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez was arrested Friday on charges she urged her 25,000 social media followers to 'attack' a public high school because Jewish students attend it. Iman Abdul, 27, is accused of posting a screenshot on Thursday of the location of Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences in Manhattan Beach on Google Maps and a chilling caption. 'If anyone needs a public school in NYC to attack for whatever reason … Lexus driving Israhell (sic) loving Zionists all attend here,' the since-deleted post read. Advertisement 3 Iman Abdul was arrested Friday on charges she threatened the Brooklyn high school. Obtained by the NY Post 'They've all gone on 'Birthright,' it added, referring to a popular program that offers free 10-day trips to Israel for Jewish young adults. The NYPD arrested Abdul at her Brooklyn home on Friday, charging her with making a terroristic threat, acting in a manner injurious to a child, aggravated harassment, and making a threat of mass harm. Advertisement Abdul described herself in a 2019 interview as a student at City College of NY, majoring in childhood education, sociology and Latino studies; a director at IntegrateNYC a youth–led group advocating for 'desegregation' of city schools; and a campaign youth organizer for socialist pols such as AOC and state Senator Julia Salazar. The Instagram post alarmed Jewish advocates fighting against antisemitism in city schools. 'A map. A pin. A call to harm Jews, fellow New Yorkers, children, teachers. This isn't just dangerous. It's evil. Jew-hatred doesn't stop with a threat. It escalates. We need immediate and unequivocal action,' Tova Plaut, a DOE pre-K staffer and Jewish activist, told The Post. 'I am outraged and horrified that a NYC school was publicly marked for attack simply because of its Jewish population,' she added. Advertisement NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch, who is Jewish, and the department's intelligence unit were quickly alerted to the threat, sources said. 3 The Instagram post urged followers to 'attack' Leon Goldstein HS. Obtained by the NY Post The watchdog group StopAntisemitism shared the post on X and accused Abdul of 'inviting people to attack a Jewish school,' although Goldstein HS is a secular NYC public school. 'This incitement against Jews, specifically minor children, must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law,' the group declared. Advertisement Abdul doubled down in a direct message to StopAntisemitism on her Instagram account @theinmxnabdul. '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,' she wrote in a word-salad response. 'I called for an attack on the school, the Zionist institution funded by our public dollars … we have every right to verbally attack the school.' 3 Leon M. Goldstein High School sits on the campus of Kingsborough Community College. Goldstein HS, with 998 students, is located on CUNY's Kingsborough Community College campus. Its extracurriculars include an Israel Club for those wishing to learn more about the country and celebrate Jewish holidays. 'This kind of hate stems from years of indoctrination from CUNY and NYC schools –it isn't born overnight,' said Moshe Spern, president of United Jewish Teachers. 'The antisemitism embedded in every university protest over the past 22 months comes as no surprise to anyone.' Israel advocate Uri Cohen also blasted the account, calling it 'full with other antisemitic content' in an X post that has racked up more than 500,000 views and comments branding Abdul as 'insufferable,' 'narcissistic' and a 'demon.' He shared a screen recording from the account showing the woman mocking complaints to police and laughing as she claimed Zionists are reporting her for exercising 'freedom of speech.' Abdul could not be reached for comment. Her Instagram account was deleted, along with her LinkedIn page.
