You are simply wrong and uninformed.

““(b) Responsibility of foreign states.—A foreign state shall not be immune from the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States in any case in which money damages are sought against a foreign state for physical injury to person or property or death OCCURRING IN the United States and caused by”

And the law does not allow ANY foreign entity standing here. And no international court is involved. If an American, in America is killed by a terrorist attack, you can sue the nation state that sponsors them and seize what they possess.

Also specifically excluded are any acts of war.

Yes. And the individuals in Syria who happened to be standing the wrong place when a drone ripped through a restaurant in an effort to kill a terrorist have NO right to sue us for billions...

The Africans who live on the coast have thousands of ‘scientists’ who are being paid a LOT of money to say that our carbon emissions are harming individuals.

Freakin’ lawyers can twist anything to their advantage.

This opens up class action lawsuits world-wide.

So why wouldn’t a group of widows who’s innocent husbands were killed by a drone ‘oops’ (there have been a few) not have the right to our property that’s on their land? Perhaps the value of an embassy and the land that it stands on?

Some of the biggest lawsuit settlements in the world are class-action. This would be a class-action lawsuit.
