Shurat HaDin Files 8-Page DOJ Complaint Against Hind Rajab Foundation Over 16-Country Lawfare

1 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jul 9

Summary

  • An eight-page complaint filed with the U.S. attorney general asks the DOJ to investigate the Belgium-based Hind Rajab Foundation over what Shurat HaDin calls antisemitic legal harassment of Israeli soldiers and an Israeli-American.
  • Shurat HaDin says HRF has pursued cases in 16 jurisdictions and claimed a 1,000-name dossier at the International Criminal Court, while no court has convicted any targeted soldier and cases have ended in dismissals or releases.
  • The complaint also targets HRF chairman Dyab Abou Jahjah, citing his past statements about joining Hezbollah and receiving military training, and argues the group may warrant scrutiny under FARA, terror-finance sanctions and material-support statutes.
  • At the center of the filing is a demand for subpoenas, financial tracing and possible sanctions, with Shurat HaDin arguing HRF's undisclosed funding and efforts to spur U.S. action against an American citizen raise sovereignty and foreign-influence concerns.
