ISRAELI GROUP WINS ISLAMIC TERROR SUIT AGAINST SYRIA, IRAN Every victim's family of every act of jihad should sue. It shouldn't be hard to know whom to sue. Jihadists are always taking credit, dancing in the streets, giving out candy when they slaughter innocents. Instead of enriching and emboldening the jihad, we should be starving it, freezing its assets and allocating the funds to the victims of jihad. Huge props to the Shurat HaDin Israel Law Center. Brilliant! Israeli group wins terror suit against Syria, Iran WRAL JERUSALEM — An Israeli advocacy group won a $323 million judgment in a U.S. court against Iran and Syria for supportingPalestinian militants that killed an American teenager and ten others in a 2006 bombing, the group's director said Tuesday. Nitsana Darshan-Leitner of the Shurat HaDin Israel Law Center that represents victims of Palestinian violence said Tuesday that the group had won courtroom victories against Iran but never before against Syria. The center was representing the family of 16-year-old Daniel Wultz of Florida, who was among 11 killed when an Islamic Jihad suicide bomber set off his explosives at a Tel Aviv restaurant six years ago. Daniel's father was severely injured in the attack. Darshan-Leitner said that Iran supports the Islamic Jihad movement financially while Syria had granted the group a haven totrain in its territory. U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth said in the Monday ruling, "When a state chooses to uses terror as a policy tool - as Iran and Syria continue to do - that state forfeits its sovereign immunity and deserves unadorned condemnation. Barbaric acts like the April 17, 2006 suicide bombing have no place in civilized society andpresent a moral depravity that knows no bounds." An American lawyer representing Syria argued the case should be dismissed on the grounds of "sovereign immunity" but the court dismissed it. Darshan-Leitner said there is a good chance for the victim's family to get compensation through frozen Syrian assets held by the U.S. "For the first time an American court is holding the government of Syria accountable for its decades-long support of terrorism," she said. -----Original Message----- From: Vanna Lanh <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wed, May 16, 2012 10:34 pm Subject: RE: ISRAELI GROUP WINS ISLAMIC TERROR SUIT AGAINST SYRIA, IRAN Hi All: Does this mean US now can or will sue Samdech Hun Xen to compensate for Ron Abney injury from the grenade attack?...I think not....their game plan in SE Asia is way much more important than LAW & JUSTICE (which you hear Hillary Clinton and Obama preache all the times) as always in the Washington paybook. Perhaps the spineless people in the state Department forsake their own citizens for the sake of pleasing one slimy ally after another, much like how they splash cash on Opium King Kazai of Afganistan, and shower the Pakistani ISI with $$$$$$$$$$$ at the expense of thier young men and women who fight and die needlessly in the hands of the Talibans, and Al Qaida, including shot at point blank and ambushed by the so call allies in both countries. Yet the American blood and money keep on flowing......sleep tight America your precious tax dollars are hard at work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cambodia Discussion (CAMDISC) - www.cambodia.org" group.
