Thanks for the links. Apparently, they were suing the US government to gain access to funds seized from Hussein. I can understand that.

Without knowing more about this "Section 1803" and how it strengthens the ability to sue I wonder why they picked this funding bill to insert it? Other than to draw a veto.
