Absolutely sickening.
Attorneys for 11 American families who won a potential billion-dollar judgment against the Palestinian leadership, which a federal jury blamed for a string of deadly terror attacks, say the U.S. government took the side of terrorists when it weighed in on the case Monday.
The State and Justice departments filed a "statement of interest" in the case known as Sokolow v. PLO, urging U.S. District Judge George Daniels not to force the Palestinian Authority and Palestinian Liberation Organization to post bond of up to $30 million per month while it appeals the jury's February decision. Daniels had previously said he may require the bond as “some meaningful demonstration that the defendant is ready and willing to pay the judgment.”
The PLO is giving money to the families of the same terrorists who killed these people, and yet obama's State Dept is siding with them and the PLO, demanding the Judge not require the PLO to pay this bond.
I don't know that the Judge has to follow the State Dept's demand here, and I haven't read if he's ruled on it yet, but I hope he rules against the State Dept's request. The US State Dept shouldn't be siding with terrorists or terrorist governments.
