NOTES PREVENTING TERRORISM BY PROSECUTING MATERIAL SUPPORT Brian P. Comerford* The most important aspect of the war on terror is the application of the rule of law to break the backs of terrorist organizations.' INTRODUCTION In the years since September 11, federal prosecutors have intensi- fied their efforts to bring criminal prosecutions as part of the war on terror. An essential tool in these efforts is the material support stat- ute, 18 U.S.C. § 2339B, which prohibits the provision of material sup- port to designated foreign terrorist organizations. Using the material support statute, the government has charged a number of defendants in the war on terror, including John Walker Lindh and the "Lackawanna Six" defendants. Although often de- scribed as a terrorist financing law, 2 recent cases illustrate the impor- tance of the material support statute not just to restrict terrorist fundraising, but to combat all types of support to terrorist organiza- tions.

  • Executive Excess V. Judicial Process: American Judicial Responses to the Government' S War on Terror
    EXECUTIVE EXCESS V. JUDICIAL PROCESS: AMERICAN JUDICIAL RESPONSES TO THE GOVERNMENT' S WAR ON TERROR Michael J. Kelly* We may assume that the threat to Hawaii was a real one; we may also take it for granted that the general declaration of martial law was justified. But it does not follow from these assumptions that the military was free [to violate the] Constitution . especially after the initial shock of the sudden Japaneseattack had been dissipated. From time immemorial despots have used real or imagined threats to the public welfare as an excuse for needlessly abrogating human rights. That excuse is no less unworthy of our traditions when used in this day of atomic warfare or at a future time when some other type of warfare may be devised. The... constitutional rights of an accused individual are too fundamental to be sacrificed merely through a reasonablefear of military assault. There must be some overpoweringfactor that makes a recognitionof those rights incompatible with the public safety before we should consent to their temporary suspension.

  • Pistole Statement
    Statement of John S. Pistole Executive Assistant Director for Counterterrorism/Counterintelligence Federal Bureau of Investigation before the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks upon the United States April 14, 2004 Chairman Kean, Vice Chairman Hamilton, and members of the Commission, thank you for this opportunity to appear before you and the American people today to discuss the FBI’s Counterterrorism mission. I am honored today to speak to you on behalf of the dedicated men and women of the FBI who are working around the clock and all over the globe to combat terrorism. The FBI remains committed to fighting the threats posed by terrorism. But by no means do we fight this battle alone. I want to take a moment to thank our law enforcement and Intelligence Community partners, both domestic and international, for their invaluable assistance and support. I also thank this Commission. The FBI appreciates your tremendous efforts to make recommendations that will help the FBI evolve to meet and defeat terrorist threats. We will continue to work closely with you and your staff to provide access to FBI personnel and information, for the purpose of ultimately strengthening the security of our Nation. To the victims and family members that suffer as a result of the horrific attacks of September 11, 2001--and all acts of terrorism--the FBI has been heartened by your gratitude and mindful of your criticism. Under Director Mueller's leadership, the FBI has not merely begun a process of considered review--it has engaged in an unprecedented transformation. Today, the FBI is better positioned to fulfill its highest priority: “to Protect the United States from Terrorist attack.” The FBI employs a multifaceted approach in order to accomplish its mission.
