Terror victim demands Ahmadinejad's posh Midtown hotel room
NY Post ^ | September 14, 2012 | PEDRO OLIVEIRA JR. and BRUCE GOLDING

A still-suffering terror victim is hoping to exact some “suite revenge” on Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — by taking over his suite at a posh Midtown hotel.

Lawyers for ex-New Yorker Stuart Hersh — who was severely injured in a 1997 suicide bombing in Israel — yesterday served The Warwick hotel with legal papers claiming rights to the hate-spewer’s rooms booked for his upcoming visit to the United Nations.

Hersh, 64, has a $12 million judgment against Iran for complicity in his wounds, which he claims entitles him to assume Ahmadinejad’s reservation or pocket whatever money the hotel gets paid for it.

“Ahmadinejad is going to be staying at The Warwick hotel, paying a fortune, and he owes me $12 million and he just won’t pay it,” Hersh told The Post by phone from Israel.

“He throws that in my face and in the face of America, saying: ‘Hey, I still got money — despite your sanctions.’ ”

One of his lawyers, Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, of the Shurat HaDin/Israel Law Center, said, “If this war criminal Ahmadinejad needs a place to sleep, maybe the murderers over in the Libyan embassy can put him up for a night.”

Darshan-Leitner estimated that Iran would spend at least $20,000 a night to bunk its delegation at The Warwick for the week.

GOOD ONE. Hope he gets, at a minimum, a lot of press on this. Money would be good, too.

Better place for him, the grey-bar motel where they serve pork sandwiches, pork beans and bacon/sausage.

K.

His country owes you $12 million.

Your venue of claim is Israel and is unenforcable in the United States a sovereign of and by itself.

Your lawyers took your money and did as you asked but that is as far as this is going.

The Warwick is not a proxy Sheriff to enforce your claim.

But, if it makes you feel better... fine by me.

The hotel should be shunned by all decent humans for allowing this murderer to stay there.
