Freezing Terrorist Assets
This is a good thing. But it's too bad that the Republicans fought like mad demons to keep President Clinton from doing this to Osama and Osama's allies.

Suspected al-Qaida backer's assets frozenThe Bush administration acted Tuesday to freeze the finances of a Syrian man believed to helped bankroll insurgents in Iraq by providing support to al-Qaida's top operative in the war-torn country. The Treasury Department's action against Sulayman Khalid Darwish means that any banks accounts or financial assets belonging to him that are found in this country are frozen. The United States is also asking the United Nations' member countries to freeze Darwish's assets. The U.S. government contends that Darwish provided financial and material support to terror networks run by Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi, al-Qaida's top operative in Iraq.
