(Jerusalem Post) Dan Izenberg - Tel Aviv District Court awarded damages of NIS 72m. to a family that lost two of its members in a terrorist bombing in Petah Tikva two years ago, marking the second time that a court has awarded damages against the PA or Arafat, and the first time it awarded punitive damages to the survivors of terrorist victims. Jerusalem attorney Roland Roth said he would file a request to put a lien on money Israel owes the PA in order to make sure the family is compensated. The court's decision may speed up rulings on many similar lawsuits currently pending.
