U.S. District Court Awards Judgment to Families of Terrorism Victims including Taylor Force
(Jerusalem Post) Three families of American citizens whose loved ones were murdered by Hamas in Israel have been awarded a judgment against the Iranian and Syrian governments by the U.S. District Court in Washington. The plaintiffs include the family of Taylor Force, a West Point graduate who was stabbed to death by a Hamas terrorist in Tel Aviv in March 2016. The court found that Iran and Syria had provided material support to Hamas, making the two countries indirectly liable to the plaintiffs for the pain, suffering and emotional distress caused by the murder of their family members in Israel.
