DEPARTMENT OF STATE

[Public Notice 4851]


Determination Pursuant to Section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224 
Relating to the Designation of Jam'at al Tawhid wa'al-Jihad, Also Known 
as the Monotheism and Jihad Group, Also Known as the al-Zarqawi 
Network, Also Known as al-Tawhid

    Acting under the authority of section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224 
of September 23, 2001, as amended by Executive Order 13286 of July 2, 
2002, and Executive Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, and in 
consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury, the Attorney General, 
and the Secretary of Homeland Security, I hereby determine that the 
organization known as Jam'at al Tawhid wa'al-Jihad, also known as the 
Monotheism and Jihad Group, also known as the al-Zarqawi Network, also 
known as al-Tawhid, has committed, or poses a significant risk of 
committing, acts of terrorism that threaten the security of U.S. 
nationals or the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the 
United States.
    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of Executive Order 
13224 that ``prior notice to persons determined to be subject to the 
Order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States 
would render ineffectural the blocking and other measures authorized in 
the Order because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously,'' I 
determine that no prior notice need be provided to any person subject 
to this determination who might have a constitutional presence in the 
United States because to do so would render ineffectual the measures 
authorized in the Order.
    This notice shall be published in the Federal Register.

    Dated: September 27, 2004.
Colin L. Powell,
Secretary of State, Department of State.
