[Public Notice 5893]


Determination Pursuant to Section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224 
Relating to the Designation of the Fatah al-Islam

    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 and the Attorney 
General, I hereby determine that the organization known as Fatah al-
Islam 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 ineffectual the blocking and other measures authorized in 
the Order because of the ability to transfer funds instantaneously,'' I 
determine that no prior notice needs to 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: August 9, 2007.
Condoleezza Rice,
Secretary of State, Department of State.
