Monday, 24 September 2001 : "frozen assets"

An interesting beginning:

Bush Freezes Assets of 27 Individuals, Organizations [Washington Post]
President Bush signed an executive order Monday freezing the assets of 27 individuals and organizations.

"They include terrorist organizations, individuals, terrorist leaders, a corporation that serves as a front for terrorism and several nonprofit organizations," the president said in a Rose Garden appearance.
I'm happy to see something concrete happening, especially since it's more clever and targeted than simply blowing up already-ruined buildings.

Matt Drudge has clearly lost whatever marbles he had ("PUSH THE DAMN BUTTON!" is the current headline on his site), but I do understand the impulse to see some action, even if he shows a serious lack of imagination as to what effective action might be.
