PA’s letter to Pompeo rejecting US aid, fearing terror lawsuits

(Worthy News) – Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah sent US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo a letter in late December rejecting future American financial assistance, citing the 2018 US anti-terrorism law ATCA.

The Anti-Terrorism Clarification Act, which was signed into law by President Donald Trump back in October and recently approved by the US Congress, would enable American authorities to seize assets from any foreign “terrorist entity” that receives financial aid from the US government. The law also means that any US citizen could sue the PA for involvement in terror activity and be compensated by the money earmarked for PA financial aid. [ Source: YNet News (Read More…) ]
