[Public Notice 7392]


In the Matter of the Review of the Designation of al-Aqsa 
Martyrs' Brigade aka al-Aqsa Martyrs' Battalion as a Foreign Terrorist 
Organization Pursuant to Section 219 of the Immigration and Nationality 
Act, As Amended

    Based upon a review of the Administrative Record assembled in this 
matter pursuant to Section 219(a)(4)(C) of the Immigration and 
Nationality Act, as amended (8 U.S.C. 1189(a)(4)(C)) (``INA''), and in 
consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of the 
Treasury, I conclude that the circumstances that were the basis for the 
2004 re-designation of the aforementioned organization as a foreign 
terrorist organization have not changed in such a manner as to warrant 
revocation of the designation and that the national security of the 
United States does not warrant a revocation of the designation.
    Therefore, I hereby determine that the designation of the 
aforementioned organization as a foreign terrorist organization, 
pursuant to Section 219 of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1189), shall be 
maintained.
    This determination shall be published in the Federal Register.

    Dated: March 24, 2011.
James B. Steinberg,
Deputy Secretary of State.
