Let's sue 'em!

There are no new ways for them to get what they want. No money, no boomy.

Well said-can I quote you in my next white paper?

The problem is with how the Treasury Department (Specifically, the Office of Foreign Assets Control) views the current laws involving the freezing of terror-sponsor state's assets and distribution of same. The families of Lockerbie (Pan Am) have tried to involke the statute, and are being blocked by OFAC and State, since releasing the funds and seized property would set a similar precident in countries where we have abandoned embassy land. Yeah, the Afghans didn't respect the gates of our embassy, but apparently we are still worried about what's left of the Tehran embassy. I just hope all the suits proceed, and the victims get what they can. It won't replace their loss, but it sure would be fun to watch!
