RT... A US bill allowing the families of 9/11 victims to sue Saudi Arabia for damages has prompted an Iraqi lobby group to push the parliament for a law seeking compensation for the American invasion of the country, citing “violations by US forces.”

Following Washington’s example, the Arab Project in Iraq lobby group is now seeking to “ask for compensation from the United States over violations by the US forces following the US invasion that saw the toppling of late President Saddam Hussein in 2003,” Al-Arabiya reported Saturday.

The group – the first to take advantage of the precedent set by the Justice Against Sponsors of Terrorism Act (JASTA) – has asked the Iraqi parliament to prepare the lawsuit.

JASTA was passed by US Congress last week. It creates an exception to the sovereign immunity law introduced in 1976, allowing Americans to sue foreign countries for acts of terrorism that kill Americans on US soil.

The passage of JASTA took place after a 97-1 vote by the Senate to override a veto by President Barack Obama. The House vote was 348-77.

The White House was against approving the act, stating that such lawsuits would open the door to legal challenges against US officials in other countries.

Following passage of the legislation, a Saudi Foreign Ministry source rejected the act, claiming it weakens the sovereign immunity of the nation. Russia also slammed the legislation as undermining international law.

Although 15 of the 19 men who hijacked commercial airliners and used them to crash into the World Trade Center were from Saudi Arabia, the Gulf kingdom has denied backing the terrorists. The 9/11 Commission also found no evidence that Riyadh or senior Saudi officials were involved in the attacks.

JASTA allows a lawsuit against any country by any US citizen who claims a nation financed or otherwise aided and abetted a terrorist attack on US soil. However, the plaintiff would be required to show the country acted with knowledge in providing the support.

Palestinians should be next to file a claim, including US as defendant for its support of the illegal Israeli state.

Do you really believe the lies that planes were hijacked? There is no evidence of that. However, we do know by an overwhelming amount of evidence that all three buildings were destroyed using controlled demolition.

Two possibilities: "Saudi high jackers" were selected and shepherded by CIA-Mossad in a sting-type operation or Saudi Arabia connived with their Israeli cousins in order to deflect attention from Israel. The planes were a ruse to generate propaganda to get wars going against Israel's enemies.

Whoever planned it made a bundle. No one wanted to rent the twin towers because it would cost a billion dollars to remove all the asbestos and because of the asbestos controlled demolition wasn't legal. They paid $100 million to rent the twin towers but got paid a couple of billion for terrorists insurance. Obviously they own the courts because I would not have paid them more than their investment but the courts made the insurance companies pay that ridiculous amount.

Don't be surprised if Sayanim in insurance went along with this cause for Israel; they just ding policyholders more which in turn boosts their profits.
