Shurat HaDin, Israel Law Center (ILC), founded in 2003, is a Tel Aviv-based civil rights non-governmental organization focused on representing terror victims, Jewish issues, and Israeli causes. The organization uses the power of the courts in litigation against groups and people it accuses of supporting terrorism or being "Israel's enemies." ==History== When Shurat Hadin was founded in 2003 its stated purpose was to "combat terrorism and promote civil rights through research, education and litigation." According to its founder, Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, its creation was inspired by the Southern Poverty Law Center in the United States, which used civil litigation to cripple and bankrupt the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazi groups in the US. A leaked US Embassy cable from 2007 records the following description of the organisation's links with the Government of Israel (GOI): ::Leitner said that in many of her cases she receives evidence from GOI officials, and added that in its early years ILC took direction from the GOI on which cases to pursue. "The National Security Council (NSC) legal office saw the use of civil courts as a way to do things that they are not authorized to do," claimed Leitner. Among her contacts, Leitner listed Udi Levy at the NSC and Uzi Beshaya at the Mossad, both key Embassy contacts on anti-terrorist finance cooperation.〔(Israeli Ngo Sues Terrorists, Ties Up Pa Money ), US Embassy Tel Aviv, 30 August 2007.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Shurat HaDin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
