[Public Notice 6234]


In the Matter of the Amended Designations of Islamic Jihad Group 
(IJG), a.k.a. Jama'at al-Jihad, a.k.a. the Libyan Society, a.k.a. the 
Kazakh Jama'at, a.k.a. the Jamaat Mojahedin, a.k.a. Jamiyat, a.k.a. 
Jamiat al-Jihad al-Islami, a.k.a. Dzhamaat Modzhakhedov, a.k.a. Islamic 
Jihad Group of Uzbekistan, a.k.a. al-Djihad al-Islami as a Foreign 
Terrorist Organization Pursuant to Section 219 of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act and Pursuant to Section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224

    Based upon a review of the administrative record assembled in this 
matter, and in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary 
of the Treasury, I have concluded that there is a sufficient factual 
basis to find that the Islamic Jihad Group is now known as Islamic 
Jihad Union (IJU), a.k.a. Islomiy Jihod Ittihodi, and that the relevant 
circumstances described in Section 219(a)(1) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act, as amended (the ``INA'') (8 U.S.C. 1189(a)(1)), and in 
Section 1(b) of Executive Order 13224, as amended (``E.O. 13224''), 
still exist with respect to that organization.
    Therefore, I hereby further amend the designation of that 
organization as a foreign terrorist organization, pursuant to Section 
219(a)(4)(B) of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189(a)(4)(B)), and further amend the 
2005 designation of that organization pursuant to Section 1(b) of E.O. 
13224, to include the following new names: Islamic Jihad Union (IJU), 
a.k.a Islomiy Jihod Ittihodi, a.k.a. Ittihad al-Jihad al-Islami.
    Consistent with the determination in section 10 of E.O. 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.

    Dated: April 29, 2008.
Condoleezza Rice,
Secretary of State, Department of State.
