Is suing Saudi Arabia a good idea? (Details )

The US government is trying to pass a measure that would allow victims of the 9/11 attacks to sue Saudi Arabia for their alleged role in the attack.

From what I’ve read about it, the evidence backing up their involvement isn’t considered %100. The entire concept is thought to potentially sour the US / Saudi relationship. A former strong ally of the US. And a rare friend in a region the US is heavily involved with (like it or not.)

This whole concept of suing lump sums of people for the alleged actions of few is ridiculous to me. You can’t just sue every country or race of people because of past actions. Otherwise everyone could sue everyone.

This could also open the door for people in places like Pakistan to sue the US for inadvertent drone strike casualties.

It’s like opening up a Pandora’s box of litigation.

I don’t know who’s idea this was ,but it seems like one of the dumbest things to come out of Washington I’m some time….
