Treasury names two for supporting terror groups
The Treasury Department on Thursday imposed sanctions on two individuals in Europe it said were supporting and plotting attacks with Islamic Jihad Union and al-Qaeda in Iraq.
British and German citizens Ahmad Khalaf Shabib al-Dulaymi and Attila Selek were named by Treasury under an executive order that freezes any assets the pair may have under U.S. jurisdiction and prohibits Americans from having any dealings with them.
Treasury said al-Dulaymi provided financial, material and technological support to al Qaeda in Iraq while Selek was a member of the Islamic Jihad Union and had been involved in a plot to target U.S. military personnel stationed in Germany.
Selek was sentenced in Germany to five years imprisonment in March after being charged in 2008 with being a member of a terrorist organization and preparing a crime using explosives.
Treasury said that al-Dulaymi, in addition to offering financial and other support to terror groups, "provides services to Osama bin Laden" including delivery of letters from bin Laden to other al Qaeda members.

Note on Terror Groups: There exist many different definitions of terrorism, but terrorism most commonly includes these elements: Use of premeditated, politically motivated violence or the threat of violence; Targeting noncombatants; Being a non-state actor; Absence of a state of war (specifically conventional warfare), thus excluding war crimes; Taking actions designed to coerce, frighten, or "send a message" to the public or a government (thus excluding organized crime performed for personal gain). The organizations listed on this page have verifiably used or attempted to use terrorist tactics, by the above criteria. Self-identification as a "terrorist" group is not required. This page does not condone, support or endorse violence or any of these groups which are listed below. Groups are listed regardless of political or religious orientations.
