Certain rights are guaranteed to everyone, regardless of citizenship - for instance, you can't just murder a person of non-American citizenship.
The way to bring remedy for something that happened on US soil is in US court - it's the same reason a foreign company can sue a US company in US courts.
Whether the claim has merit is up to a jury.
