Clinton Sued for Allowing Funding of Arab Terror - Global Agenda - News - Israel National News

Two dozen Americans in Israel are suing U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for negligence in allowing the United States to fund the Palestinian Authority, which used money for terror.

The suit was filed in a federal U.S. court in Washington by the Israel Law Center (Shurat HaDin), which has revolutionized the war against terror through “lawfare,” winning colossal lawsuits against terrorist organizations and banks that handle their funds.

The Federal suit alleges that the U.S. State Department violated the Anti-Terrorism Act, and abandoned Congressional safeguards, transparency and reporting requirements.

Clinton allegedly ignored congressional safeguards and transparency requirements attached to American aid to the Palestinian Authority, the Law Center stated.

If successful, I wonder if the US would have to cut off funding to Israel as well.
 
I hate it when people speak in absolutes, but the US will never cut off funding to Israel.
 
Anybody can sue anybody for anything. It doesn't have to be logical and the outcome is reality, not the filing.

24 wackos filing a lawsuit is hardly newsworthy. I'm thinking about suing DP for putting so much stuff in my brain that it affects my bowel movements. Think I'll win the case?
 
Apartheid and land theft. :lol:

I just wanted to say it before this thread got moved. :mrgreen:

I better get my shots in, too, and for the same reason.

The lawsuit won't be successful. Efforts to profit off a nation's foreign policy or the unintended consequences of its foreign policy generally fail in the legal system. There are productive ways to encourage a nation to adjust its foreign policy or to adopt more rigorous safeguards e.g., lobbying Congress toward that end. Litigation is not one of those methods.

I'm not so sure, if the Obama Admin hasn't been complying with regulations and safeguards to insure the money doesn't reach terrorist groups, they may have a shot.

INN is hardly newsworthy. It's like the Jewish version of world net daily
 
I can literally sue Adolf Hitler for defamation of jelly beans if I want to. The lawsuit isn't the noteworthy part. It would be noteworthy if I won the case.
