| Court: PA to compensate terror victims |
| 2008-09-02 |
| I doubt they'll ever see the money, but it's fun to see the assholes sweat. Jerusalem District Court Judge Aharon Farkash ruled on Monday that it was possible to implement a 2004 US court ruling, according to which the Palestinian Authority must pay compensations of more than $116 million to terror victims' families. That's 116 and 6 zeroes, Mahmoud. In July 2004, a US court ruled that the Palestinian Authority was to pay some $116 million to the relatives of Yaron and Efrat Unger who were killed in a 1996 terror attack. But when the family asked authorities to enforce the court ruling in Israel, the Palestinian Authority objected, saying that paying the high compensations would lead to its financial collapse. Awwwwwww, that's too bad. The Jerusalem District Court rejected the appeal made by the Palestinian Authority not to enforce the American ruling because the implementation would destroy it financially. The Palestinian Liberation Organization and the Palestinian Authority said that payment of such high sums would have public, political, financial and security implications for Israeli citizens. ...youze people get my drift? They claimed paying the high sum would empty the Palestinian Authority's coffers and would lead to more lawsuits against the Palestinian Authority. Geez, ya mean they'd have to stop killing people? The petition, filed in the US because the victims were American citizens, argued that the Palestinian Authority was responsible for the attack carried out by Hamas because the terrorists were controlled by the Palestinian Authority and were assisted by the Palestinian security apparatuses. But...we're the "good" terrorists! Judge Farkash said that legally, the US court ruling qualified as a verdict that was enforceable in Israel. He added that the Palestinian claim that the ruling would lead to its financial collapse was not proven, and seemed unrealistic. So cough it up, Mahmoud. |

| #1 Don't worry, Palestinian Authority. The EU will give you the money to pay the required compensation, and all the other law suits you lose, too. |
