Congress might override his veto next week.  This is a bad bill for the reasons stated above, but it will be bad optics for Democrats to follow Obama's lead and vote against with the election a month away, unfortunately.

How can you actually have an international lawsuit?  Who would the judges be?  How does it make things any better? Not sure if I agree with the bill being overridden or not because it just sounds silly.

Im not an expert but Im pretty sure similar things happened with Iran in the past.  People sued them in US Courts and when they won the courts froze Iranian assests in the US and awarded them to the plaintiffs.  Perhaps something similar would happen here
