Legal War on Terrorism
Only in America would victims of a terrorist incident sue the terrorists.
Relatives of about 900 Americans killed in the attacks, along with some survivors, lodged a class action suit on August 15, 2002 seeking more than $100 trillion damages.
Of course if they actually success in getting a large amount of cash from the terrorists it might not be as stupid as it first seems. The more money they can take out of an organisation, the more it’ll hurt its operations, but I still have to wonder if it’ll do any good.
