Israeli lawyer Nitsana Darshan-Leitner (pictured) who has successfully sued a long list of international terror organisations over the past decade, netting more than $US1 billion in damages, is set to visit Australia this month.
The "lawfare" expert, who also runs the Shurat HaDin – Israel Law Centre – is being brought out for briefings by the Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council (AIJAC). Among her addresses, she will deliver the Hans and Gini Bachrach Oration in Melbourne, co-hosted by AIJAC and the Jerusalem College of Technology, and also speak at Shalom College in
Sydney, co-hosted by AIJAC and the State Zionist Council of NSW.
Using Israeli and American leglislation, Shurat HaDin has waged a legal campaign against organisations, including Hamas, Hezbollah, Islamic Jihad, Fatah and the Iranian government in US and Israeli courts.
Darshan-Leitner explained that while terrorists and their sponsors do not pay up, US anti-terror laws allow Washington to freeze their assets and holdings, including bank accounts, stock holdings and real estate, mainly through banks in which these organisations do business. "Money is the oxygen of terrorism, and if we can stop the flow of money, we can reduce terrorism," she told The AJN in an interview from Israel.
Darshan-Leitner said that while terrorist weapons, such as home-made bombs, are relatively inexpensive, that does not hold true for the amounts of money needed to train and pay recruits working in terror cells.
The first plaintiffs to sue a terrorist outfit were the family of Leon Klinghoffer, a wheelchair-bound Jewish American who was murdered when thrown from the deck of the Achille Lauro ocean liner during a PLO terrorist attack in 1985.
As there was no PLO presence in the US at that time, US laws were amended to get around a lack of jursdiction.
Now Iran, Syria and North Korea, all on the US State Department's "watch list" of countries sponsoring terrorism, can be sued in the US.
Shurat HaDin began its litigation in 2000 after the outbreak of the Second Intifada. Since then, it has managed to prise major global banks from their terrorist
customers.
Israeli intelligence sources have told Shurat HaDin its lawsuits have reduced terrorism by around 60 per cent.
"The amount of money Hamas can smuggle through tunnels in suitcases is about a tenth of what can be wired through a bank," said Darshan-Leitner.
Despite battling major US and European law firms that represent the defendants, Shurat HaDin has an almost perfect strike rate in winning cases, she said.
Iran has been deprived of its financial resources in Italy, France and Germany, where nervous banks have cut ties with the rogue regime, but Tehran has transferred a lot of its banking to Asia, she said.
The Hans and Gini Bachrach Memorial Oration is at 8pm on Monday, February 14 at Caulfield Hebrew Congregation. Enquiries: AIJAC (03) 9681 6660
Nitsana Darshan-Leitner will speak at Shalom College, Sydney. at 8pm on Tuesday, February 15. Enquiries: AIJAC (02) 9360 5415.

Kevin MacDonald, Long Beach State Hate Professor, Claims Jews are Blocking Interview He Did With The Daily Show From Airing
, Comments (13) 
Categories: The Hilarious Haters 
It's been a couple of months since we last paid much attention to Kevin MacDonald, the Long Beach State psychology professor who's an Irvine resident and a bigwig at the white-power, terrorist-inspiredAmerican Third Position Party. So we missed his January essay on the white-supremacistVdare.com publication in which he claims Jewish interests are keeping an interview The Daily Showdid with him last summer from ever airing. 
MacDonald, of course, is the White weenie whose pseudo-academic writings claiming Jews systematically undermine Western civilization as a method of survival has won him praise in neo-Nazi circles and nowhere else.
In the essay (which people can find on their own because I'm sure as hell not going to drive more traffic to those imbeciles), MacDonald discloses that Jon Stewart's producers got in contact with him because they wanted to do a segment on his railings against then-Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagen. MacDonald had claimed that Kagen only received the nomination because she was a Jew, and the Daily Showflew MacDonald to New York to interview him. The highlight of MacDonald's interview, according to his piece? When he outed Ralph Lauren as a Jew.
Anyone who has heard MacDonald speak knows he's a bore with as much personality as a terra-cotta planter, and it's no surprise the segment never aired. But MacDonald, ever the conspiracy theorist, told his VDare audience he suspected more nefarious agents at work: the Jews!
"But the suspicion must be that," MacDonald whined, "the senior media honchos do not want discussions of race, White identity and interests, or Jewish influence in a way that gets outside the box of Political Correctness."
And who are these "senior media honchos," in MacDonald-speak? Jews.
The classless MacDonald also listed the private e-mail of a Daily Showproducer.

ATHENS, Greece (JTA) -- Mikis Theodorakis, the Greek composer who wrote the music for the film "Zorba the Greek," said in a television interview that he is an "anti-Semite and anti-Zionist."
Theodorakis, 86, a hero in Greece, also said in the interview on Greece's High channel that "everything that happens today in the world has to do with the Zionists." He added that "American Jews are behind the world economic crisis that has hit Greece also."
The composer, a member of the Greek Communist Party for 60 years, once was a supporter of Israel but gradually became a major critic. He has gone from criticizing Israel to making anti-Semitic remarks and holding anti-Semitic positions.
In 2003, Theodorakis declared that "Jews are at the root of all evil." When the Greek Jewish community reacted strongly to his statement he apologized, but nothing really changed.
Oddly, during the television interview he said that "I'm an anti-Semite but I love Jews."
Theodorakis criticized Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou for meeting with his Israeli counterpart, Benjamin Netanyahu, who the composer says is a persona non-grata in Greece due to his "war crimes in Lebanon and Gaza."
In the interview, Theodorakis had a warning for the Greek people.
"We are in danger. In a few days the Zionists will gather in Greece for a conference," he said, referring to the visit by the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, which began Tuesday.
