Designated Foreign Terrorist Organizations play a critical role in America's fight against terrorism and are an effective means of curtailing support from U.S. Citizens, U.S. Business Owners, U.S. Visa Holders, and those U.S. adjacent to stop supporting terrorist activities and pressuring groups to get out of the terrorism business. U.S. law does permit the targetted-killing of U.S. Citizens engaged in terrorism; the confiscation of all assets; and imprisonment including the death penalty.
