💨 Abstract
A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit seeking emergency rescues of Palestinian Americans and their family members trapped in Gaza due to the Israel-Hamas war. Chief Judge Virginia Kendall of the U.S. District Court in Chicago stated she lacked the authority to evaluate such foreign policy decisions. The plaintiffs, nine Palestinian Americans, argued the U.S. government violated their constitutional rights by not evacuating them. The judge noted the complexities of coordinating evacuations and the lack of U.S. diplomatic presence in Gaza.
