U.S. District Judge George Daniels, appointed by President Clinton

A judge in New York on Monday ordered the Palestinian Authority (PA) and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) to post $10 million in cash or bond while they appeal a jury's finding that they supported terrorist attacks in Israel, Reuters reported.
At a court hearing in Manhattan, U.S. District Judge George Daniels said the defendants must also deposit $1 million each month pending the appeal of a February jury verdict worth $655 million in favor of 10 American families.
The order came a week after the Obama administration took the unusual step of urging Daniels to "carefully consider" the PA’s financial condition, saying too high a bond could compromise its ability to function.
A collapse of the Palestinian Authority "would undermine several decades of U.S. foreign policy and add a new destabilizing factor to the region," U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in a court filing earlier this month.
In February, the PLO was found liable to pay $218.5 million to victims of terror, a figure that was set to be tripled to $655.5 million according to the anti-terrorism laws under which the case was brought.
Legal rights group Shurat Hadin (Israel Law Center) helped represent the 11 families who charge the PA and PLO of inciting, supporting, planning and executing the seven terror attacks which killed American citizens between 2000 and 2004.

If Obama was half as worried about America’s economy as he is the PA, we would not have this lousy phony recovery for six years.

They are mirror-polished as they are.

Carter, Clinton and Obama all have played their part in the longtime plan to poison the US judicial system.
