The Biden administration has launched a campaign to build a multinational coalition to go after terrorist financing and will send senior Treasury officials to coordinate efforts in the region.

'The United States is taking swift and decisive action to target Hamas's financiers and facilitators following its brutal and unconscionable massacre of Israeli civilians, including children,' said Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen. 'The U.S. Treasury has a long history of effectively disrupting terror finance and we will not hesitate to use our tools against Hamas.

The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) imposed sanctions on ten key Hamas terrorist group members, operatives, and financial facilitators in Gaza and elsewhere including Sudan, Türkiye, Algeria, and Qatar who will be cut off from assets in the US financial system, giving them "fewer resources to pay their fighters, to buy the weapons, to support their destabilizing activity."

But, you know, impeach Joe Biden.

Why weren't we doing this [imposing sanctions on terrorists] already?

Apparently we were, for quite a while now, but I would suspect that these new sanctions are based on recent intelligence info. From https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy18...

Today's designations are part of a continuous effort by the United States to root out Hamas's sources of revenue in the West Bank and Gaza and across the region and is taken in close coordination with regional partners and allies. To date, Treasury has targeted nearly 1,000 individuals and entities connected to terrorism and terrorist financing by the Iranian regime and its proxies, including Hamas, Hizballah, and other Iran-aligned terrorist groups in the region.

Anti Muslim behavior from President Biden and the American Left.

When the day comes where America has to ask "why do they hate us" again, we'll know why.

Did Hamas just become a terror group a week ago?
