Court Ruling: U.S. Terror Victims Beat DOJ in Claiming $5M of Hamas Funds

American victims of Palestinian suicide bombing are the first to leverage a recent congressional act.  "It’s another courtroom victory for the terror victims — this one against the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Holy Land Foundation (HLF). On April 27th, a district court in Dallas handed down a historic court decision with truly far-reaching implications. The court in Texas has found that the terror victims’ right to collect on their judgments against the terrorist groups, their front-charity organizations, and the outlaw regimes overrides the government’s right to confiscate the terrorists’ assets."
