Title: Nitsana Darshan-Leitner – Taking the Red Cross, UNRWA and Harvard to the courts (*from 2:02 mins)

Description:  Maurice Klein speaks with Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, founder and President of Shurat Hadin-Israel Law Center( ILC), which is at the forefront of fighting terrorism in the courts, dedicated to protecting the State of Israel and safeguarding Jewish rights worldwide. Since 2003 Shurat Hadin has been utilizing the court systems around the world and going on the legal offensive against Israel's enemies, having achieved many major successful outcomes which we hear about. According to Nitsana "terrorism is like any other corporation, it needs funds to work, if you block the funds you block the terrorism".  Nitsana tells us about the very important legal actions that Shurat Hadin has initiated in the last sixteen months, post the October 7 Hamas genocidal pogrom which Hamas has promised to repeat over and over again.  Nitsana also tells us about the Shurat Hadin Ultimate Mossad Missions in May and June 2025. Shurat Hadin works closely with Israel's Government and the Israeli intelligence community, as the Government can't do the work that Shurat Hadin-Israel Law Center does due to political restraints and international treaties. Professor Alan Dershowitz has described Shurat Hadin as one of the most important organisations operating in the world today.
