(Washington Times) Ashish Kumar Sen - A U.S. court has found North Korea guilty of aiding terrorists and has fined Pyongyang $300 million in connection with a 1972 terrorist attack in Israel. However, it is unlikely North Korea will recognize the court decision and pay the fine. "North Korea's demonstrated and well-known policy to encourage, support and direct a campaign of murder against civilians amply justifies the imposition of punitive damages against it," Judge Francisco A. Besosa of the U.S. District Court in Puerto Rico said in a ruling Friday. The lawsuit was filed by the family of Carmelo Calderon-Molina, a U.S. citizen who had traveled to Israel on a pilgrimage to Christian religious sites and was killed in the attack at Ben-Gurion International Airport in Tel Aviv. The attack was carried out by the Japanese Red Army and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), with material support from North Korea and North Korea's Cabinet General Intelligence Bureau. 2010-07-21 08:47:21Full Article
