Congress overrides POTUS veto

why not just add SA to the list of terrorist states

The US would win in US courts. SA would win in their courts, everyone would win in their own courts and it would really become a mess. Its not like SA would every pay any damages, so what the US would go after assets? Then others would go after US assets abroad, sounds like the start of something ugly if you ask me. You want to hurt SA? Get an electric car. Unfortunately it seems like an easy lawsuit to win but the US govt is as guilty as any other. Stack up the body count of innocent people on 9/11 vs the amount of innocents our govt kills on a routine basis and its laughable.

^Not just the overt killings of civilians by GOTUS, GOTUS could also come into trouble for engaging and supporting these terrorists, the same ones that are now attacking us. Or it could be for terrorists attacking other countries, as Turkey is rightly angry with the US sheltering Fetullah Gulen or arming Kurds.

For those reasons, I’m betting this will be very limited in scope and likely unenforceable.
