This document is page 23 of a legal opinion from the case 'In re Terrorist Attacks on September 11, 2001' (392 F.Supp.2d 539), printed from Westlaw with a House Oversight Bates stamp. It discusses the dismissal of certain claims (TVPA, negligence) against defendants including the IIRO, SAAR Network, and Tarik Hamdi, while analyzing RICO liability standards. A specific section details allegations against Tarik Hamdi, accusing him of supplying a satellite phone battery to Osama bin Laden in 1996, which was subsequently used to coordinate the African embassy bombings.
