Over at Newsmax, Steve Emerson recently wrote a column detailing the efforts by a group of 9/11 Family members to expand and improve the way the US goes after financial support for terrorism.
The main thrust of legislation currently proposed in Washington will be to clear the way for victims of state-sponsored terrorism to sue those who provide the wherewithal for terrorists to commit their atrocities. The bill is aimed squarely at Saudi Arabia and the role its citizens played in supporting Al Qaeda for years leading up to the September 11th, 2001 attacks.
There is a petition online for expressing support for this legislation:
