Found Money - Page 2

Now that the terrs know all about our watching their electronic money transfers, they can quit doing that -- and transfer remarkably large sums of money the oldfashioned, slow, and inefficient way to keep it off the Belgians' radar. And not only can we catch 'em at it, not only is it vulnerable to robbery, but each transferror suffers agonies of temptation to skim just a little. The hostiles' funds become inefficient, and terrorism, which is as big a money pit as conventional war man for man, slumps.

I seem to remember, right after 9-11, one of the plans the US announced they were going to implement was going after the money.
They openly stated they were digging into the financing of terrorism, globally.
Did the terrorists not believe it or think the US government incapable of being successful? Pretty stupid either way...anybody can tell you the one thing the US government can do well is,.... grab the money.

I think Tom DeLay finally figured that one out.
