Appeals court reinstates $656M judgment against the PLO and Palestinian Authority

A $656 million judgment against Palestinian authorities has been reinstated by appeals judges, following a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in favor of Americans killed or wounded in attacks in Israel. The decision from the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals comes a decade after it first tossed out a verdict against the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Palestinian Authority on the grounds that U.S. courts couldn't consider lawsuits against foreign groups over overseas attacks that were not aimed at the United States.
