#2  However, these mideast countries still have other markets such as China, etc.

Which is precisely why China needs to be broken on the wheel of their intentionally crappy quality control instead of being worshipped by disloyal money-grubbing politicians and mercenary multinationals who cannot see past the next campaign-contribution buck or quarterly report.

#1  This a 166 page download. Something for me to read at a later date. However, thanks for the posting. Disrupting the financing of terrorists means disrupting moneys coming from Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Syria.

I can think of at least three areas that will also be impacted by disrupting the flow of money: 1. enemy propaganda will be impacted, 2. the flow of arms will be disrupted, and 3. terrorist infrastructure will be impacted (such as recruiting, training, undermining leadership, etc). We need to find more effective ways to counter enemy propaganda and we need better intel. Denying these mideast countries oil profits by becoming more energy independent would help. However, these mideast countries still have other markets such as China, etc.
