7 OCTOBER LEGAL CASE

INTERNATIONAL LAW COALITION

7 OCTOBER LEGAL CAMPAIGN

Victims of the 7 October attack and their families can bring legal claims against Hamas and the banks and states that fund Hamas. 

 

Over 950 victims and families of the 7 October terror attack have joined our case. Civilian victims, soldiers and police harmed in the attack, and immediate family all qualify.

MM~LAW LLC
INTERNATIONAL LAW COALITION

MM~LAW’s founder served as a lone soldier in paratrooper battalion 890 in the Yom Kippur war, and later in counterterrorism actions crossing Israel’s northern borders. Our legal and client-support team lost parents and siblings in the 7 Oct terrorist attack.

 

For over 20 years, we have been building and winning cases against Hamas, Iran, Sudan, the banks that launder their money, and other sponsors of terrorism.  

​

We have collected over $2 billion for victims of terrorism and worked with legislatures around the world to pass laws that make it harder for terrorists to access funding and easier for victims to secure justice in court.

​

We have won or settled major cases for victims of terrorism against:

  • Arab Bank for funding Hamas

​

  • Sudan (in an 8-0 U.S. Supreme Court ruling) for it's role in Al-Qaeda's 1998 embassy bombings in Kenya & Tanzania

​

  • American oil companies that paid Saddam Hussein millions in kickbacks that Saddam then used to fund suicide bombers

​

  • Iran for financing the attacks by Al Qaeda and six other terrorist organizations against American soldiers in Iraq

​

  • Iran on behalf of hundreds of US Air Force personnel and their families for the suicide bombing at the Khobar Towers apartments in Saudi Arabia

​

MM~LAW achieved these historic outcomes by building a global network of leading law firms to represent victims of terrorism in civil lawsuits against international terrorists and the networks that fund them. 

 

We support these cases through an in-house research division with former intelligence analysts from Israel, the United States, and the European Union.  Our research division has built a 750,000-document database of terrorism financing evidence in Arabic, Farsi, English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, and Hebrew.

LEGISLATIVE SUCCESSES

US Victims of Terrorism Fund

Co-authored and led lobbying/passage of U.S. Victims of State Sponsors of Terrorism Act, creating the USVSST Fund which has already distributed over $4 billion to 15,000+ victims, including victims of attacks in Israel.

 

Anti-Terrorism Clarification Act

Authored and successfully achieved unanimous passage by Congress of the Anti-Terrorism Clarification Act, which authorizes civil lawsuits against all terrorists, specifically denying them any “protections” as a military force or engaged in “acts of war” under US law.  This Act has paved the way for lawsuits by over 4,000 US soldiers against over 12 of the largest banks in the world, for laundering billions of dollars for Iran.

 

Anti-Terrorism Act Extension

Authored and successfully lobbied Congress to extend the statute of limitations for the Anti-Terrorist Act from 4 years to 10 years.
