US Supreme Court won’t halt $656 million judgment against Palestinians over terror attacks
Times Of Israel ^ | 8/4/2026 | Staff

US Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor declined to halt $655.5 million in damages that Palestinian authorities were ordered to pay plaintiffs in a US civil lawsuit concerning terror attacks that killed and injured Americans in Israel from 2002 to 2004, during the Second Initifada.

Sotomayor denied a request by the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority and the Palestine Liberation Organization to pause the judgment while they appeal a lower court’s decision to revive the case years after it had been dismissed.

The lawsuit was filed by victims of attacks in Jerusalem that killed 33 people and wounded hundreds more.

The attacks took place during the Second Intifada, in which roughly 1,000 Israelis and others were killed in a string of suicide bombings and other terror attacks.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Just a reminder for those who seem to think the Palestinians are the good guys.

Where’s the money? I hope it is in the U.S. and the scumbag Arabs can’t shield it from being drained.
