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.
The United States Department of State, under the Palestinian Anti-Terrorism Act, is prohibited from providing “material support” to proscribed terrorist groups.
It is estimated that since the signing of the Oslo Accords in 1993, the United States State Department, via USAID, has given over $4 billion to PA Arabs, with portions of that funding illegally landing in the hands of terrorists. During the last four fiscal years, average aid has been roughly $600 million per year.
Additionally, the United States gives approximately $200 million to the United Nations body UNRWA each year, and during the fiscal years 2008 and 2009, UNRWA gave roughly $500 million of their funding to recipients in the West Bank and Gaza.
Under the Anti-Terrorism Act, the State Department is required to certify that the Palestinian government is committed to a peace co-existence with Israel before distributing funds, and ensure that no part of funding is used for Palestinian terrorism.
“As a result of this non-compliance, US funds have been flowing to terror groups like Hamas, the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine\ (PFLP) and the Palestine Liberation Front,” the Israel Law center wrote.

“President Barack Obama has signed a waiver declaring that aid to the Palestinian Authority is “important to the security interests of the United States,” removing a block on such funding.
In a memo sent to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, published by the White House, the president said it was appropriate to release funds to the authority, which administers the West Bank and Gaza Strip.”
Guess Huma said it was ok!!!
The law suit won’t go anywhere...the only way to reverse the course the US is in...is to start to educate the youth from the elementary up - so when they grow up - they will want to be responsible - hard working citizens - that see people like Obama and Clinton as tyrants - and never allow them to gain office...
It’s exactly what the left has done for over 40 yrs...re-educate...it can be stopped at the home - before they get into the public education sector!
That pretty much sums it up. 12 or 16 years of re-education camps as the penalty for being born American.
Everyone in the zero administration has acted criminally or willfully abetted treasonous acts against the American people at some point or are at least guilty by association

Sad news folks, the State Dept is working with (for?) the islamists and one world government types.
Oh, and using your tax dollars to do it.
Oh, and 40% of that is borrowed, which has to be paid for out of your future taxes.
