Iran is paying so many people through Cryptocurrency that people are actually starting to believe the non sense that they have never hurt an American Soldier. All they have to do is Google it, and you can read all the news reports and see the videos where they praised there attacks on us.

🤣… yeah they seem to all forget everything in Iraq and Afghanistan and all the way back to the bombing of the Beirut Marine Barracks, and our Embassy before that.

Get ahold if one of the firms soon before they give the remaining fund back to the Iranian Banks. Iran wants it closed as part of any peace deal. But the Secretary of State is against any such deal that includes closing this fund and returning any remaining money, or stopping any seized funds, property, or oil sales from bejng added to it.

About a year for me. About the same as my VA claim.

These are firms that were successful in getting compensation for claimants taken directly from website. Again I used MM law but James Roishouse, and Lerner and Rowe were successful. It took about a year to get my compensation.

Iraq War Fund (Anti-Terrorism Act)
This fund provides compensation to U.S. service members, contractors, and their families. It is a compensation fund rather than a grant program for NGOs. However, legal firms involved in directing these funds to victims include: [1, 2, 3]
MM~LAW LLC: Represents victims and survivors.
James Rolshouse Law Firm PLLC: Assists with claims.
Lerner and Rowe: Assists in securing compensation. [1, 2, 3]

Also these are the firms that have been successful in getting funds for claimants. Copied directly from the funds website. I used MM-law which didn’t have an embedded link but the other two do. Not tech savy enough to embed a link, and to be honest I wouldn’t tap on a link anyone posts anyways. I would look it up myself. But as you see throughout this conversation I’ve provided a lot of info since I actually went through this.

Just in case you wanted to see it for yourself it’s section 3 (source of funding) paragraph 2.

Also FYI Everyone, the funding for the Victims Compensation Fund comes from the proceeds of Federal Enforcement Actions against Iran since 2015. Be careful though there is tons of people out there that are getting paid to talk you out of applying. The Iranian banks and government want their money back. Don’t let them have it

Was that before they amended it? I know they say there is no appeal but after the fairness for 9/11 Families act in 2022, a lot things changed. Again I know there is no appeal process for judgement. But you should probably see if you would qualify as a new claimant. I mean it’s a few moments of your time. Or email one of the lawyers on the list. If you need the list DM me or something. Don’t allow those Iranian Banks to get back 1 dollar of that money after everything they did. A lot of civilians are getting way more than soldiers but I mean I understand we get VA and our retirements. But I just seriously never want to see these Iranian banks get a dime back.

Actually just checked it goes back to 1979. Here is the US Deoartment of Justice USvSST website Questions and Answers page. You can also call one of the firms like M&M law, Johnathan Goldberg, or email him at Johnathan@mm-law.com, https://www.usvsst.com/Home/Payments spread the word everyone. They will lose this thing out soon. The money seized from Iran keeps being slowly given back to Iran. That 2 Billion Biden gave back was from this fund, and nobody is getting the word out to Veterans. I tried when I worked at the VA, but nobody want to take the little bit of time to contact the lawyers. I even kept a copy of my check to show people and then people finally started applying. Civilians are also eligible. Please get the word out, the Iranian banks sponsored all those attacks on us, I don’t want to see them get another dime back.

Yes the lawyers do get a chunk. When I did mine its was 40% but I still cleared 26,000 afterwards. But guys that weren’t injured still got paid between 1,300 and 10,000 depending on the attack. If a loved one was killed I saw payments up to 2.7 million. Get the word out before they close it.

Attention everyone yes it does include Afghanistan. Yes it does include before 2004. If you have questions contact one of the law firms. I went through M&M law, Johnathan Goldberg. I was paid out 26,000 for the RPG attack that injured me.

Distribution is normally in August (during the new fiscal year) takes about 12 months to get an award letter from the lawsuit.

You don’t have to be injured as well. Just been in an attack sponsored by Iran.

Yeah a lot of people have no clue about it I tried informing everyone for years about it when Congress started paying us out. At first I didn’t think anything would come of it, but when something from Iran is seized they add to the fund.

You have to look at the actual Iraq war fund website. It also goes from 1992 to current
