Nothing, least of all any amount of money would make it square. The million they were given was to make sure they did not have financial problems, that is all money can ever do.

Congress needs to pass a veto-proof declaration of war against the Saudis. And authorize first strike use of nukes against the sand maggots while they’re at it.

Yes, but for those who love money to the exclusion of most else, the threat of losing it is a deterrent. And suing will prove cathartic to those who did lose loved ones. No reason to deny them that.

Exactly right. Only the US Congress could be stupid enough to go down this slippery slope.

"I dont get this issue at all. When 9/11 happened, the families were given millions of dollars by our government....taxpayer money. Lots of people are killed every day that wont get a penny from anyone, so that was a real and large blessing. Anyone handed a million dollars tax free, has no money problems...so why do they want to sue the Saudis?"
I said the same thing at the time. Not only did the families get millions from the tax-payers, but new charities sprang up over night and gave them millions more.
As horrific as 9/11 was, I never got being in the wrong place at the wrong time warranted tax dollars to the families, that's what life insurance is for. I gave countless examples of other man-made atrocities where surviving relatives were not granted tax dollars (think Oklahoma City for one).
And what about since 9/11 with the Boston bombing, San Bernardino murders, Orlando, plus various mass murders in schools, a theater etc.? Where's their tax money?
Don't mean to be callous, but I never got it. Everyone is in danger every day of losing their life due to man-made or natural disasters. Auto accidents account for more people killed than any thing. Again, being at the wrong spot on the road at the wrong time.
The only surviving families I believe warrant extra tax dollars are those of the Military, Cops, and Firemen who die in the line of duty after volunteering to give their lives for others.

And an unsuccessful attempt would be yet another signal that the Republican Congress is a squishy spineless gelatinous blob, incapable of standing upright, or even knowing which way is up. Yep. Your move, giggles.
