US court throws out $655 m. terrorism judgment against PA
A US Appeals Court on Wednesday threw out a historic $655.5 million judgment against the Palestinian Authority after it had been found liable to a group of American families who accused them of supporting terrorist attacks in Israel. Israeli law center Shurat Hadin has confirmed that they will appeal the decision. PLO Executive Committee Member Hanan Ashrawi stated that "the fact that the appeals court threw it out means that there is justice, finally." She added that Shurat Hadin is "an abhorrent organization, really vicious and full of hate." The Second US Circuit Court of Appeals in New York said a lower court judge was mistaken in concluding he had jurisdiction over the PA and ordered that the lawsuit be dismissed. Well, OK. Just don't be surprised when IDF employs its "jurisdiction over the PA". Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2016-08-31 |
