Iran Told to Pay $10.5 Billion to 9/11 Kin, Insurers

Iran was ordered by a U.S. judge to pay more than $10.5 billion in damages to families of people killed in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and to a group of insurers.

U.S. District Judge George Daniels in New York issued a default judgment Wednesday against Iran for $7.5 billion to the estates and families of people who died at the World Trade Center and Pentagon. It includes $2 million to each estate for the victims’ pain and suffering plus $6.88 million in punitive damages.

Daniels also awarded $3 billion to insurers including Chubb Ltd. that paid property damage, business interruption and other claims.

More smoke and mirrors. What about the secret 28 pages from the 9/11 report that implicate Saudi Arabia. This is political cover at the highest level to give a reason to invade for Saudi Arabia's arch enemy Iran. This is politically financed Shia / Sunni war games

They better wait until the check clears the bank before spending any of it!

it's saddening to know all the above are correct. Few people left can remember when any country we barked at rolled over knowing resistance was futile. Now we are deemed a joke. We were once feared and respected. Now we are a laughing stock looked down on. Our government has effectively introduced so many illegals and give them the world that our values are gone. Christ.... Won't be long before most of our military will be foreigners or not any American blood in them. We think our military won't do this or that knowing the American pride and blood in our soldiers. Not so much anymore. Trump is our only shot at getting back our country. We can't stand another term of a Democratic potus or any other office for the matter. He can make or break us. We are so fragile from the Kenyans damage that I believe, have set the course for the demise of us. Our country and our lives. God bless Trump and his decisions if made our next great and true leader. Trump or bust!

And what is our government going to pay them since they were responsible for the attack due to them ignoring the enforcement our laws. The majority of them were over stays. Something our government should have known about. Plus how did so many people who were overstays get on those planes without a red flag going up? Because of government incompetence. And the government has not apologized to America, as of yet.
