Justice for Victims of Palestinian Terror

(Jerusalem Post) Alan Joseph Bauer - On March 21, 2002, a Palestinian Authority police officer, escorted by two Palestinian women, walked down King George Street in the heart of Jerusalem. His escorts told him, "Allah will guide you." Muhammad Hashaika then detonated a 10-kg. suicide belt filled with nails and screws behind me and our seven-year-old son Yehonathan. Three people were killed, I had two screws through my left arm, while Yehonathan had the head of a Philips screw pass fully through his right brain. On April 2, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear the case of Sokolow v. PLO. The case involves 11 families, including our own, harmed during the second Palestinian intifada. We sued under the Anti-Terror Act of 1992. When the case finally made it to trial in 2015, the jury found the PLO and the PA guilty of providing material support in all of the attacks. The Second Circuit of Appeals heard the appeal and said that the act was unconstitutional as applied to the PA and the PLO. The PA is a terrorist organization. The one who sent our bomber was a high-ranking PA intelligence official, the bomb came from the PA intelligence agency, PA leader Marwan Barghouti gave $600 to the head of the terrorist cell, and one of the women who brought the bomber into Israel said that the PA paid for her driving lessons and other "training" so that she could bring the bomber to Jerusalem. Let the PA be held accountable for its terrorist activities against American families.
