to *survivors* of the holocaust, is quite a different thing altogether.
This are people that are suing for something done to their ancestors.
Hell, I'll go sue Italy for invading my hometurf in 100 BC, killing off lots of people and raping our women. Damn those Romans, they destroyed our Celtic heritage.

The compensation paid due to the Holocaust was also paid to
descendents of those that died, including to those who were not even born until well after the Second World War. So, I'm afraid it is *not* quite a different thing altogether.
It is, in fact and in law, very similar.
Now, it will probably get thrown out, but to simply have a knee-jerk reaction is wrong.
