In the Matter of the Review of the 

Designation of Hizballah (Hizballah and 

Other Aliases) 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 

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 

2008 determination to maintain the 

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 14, 2013.

Ansar Eddine, Also Known as 

Defenders of the Faith, as a Specially 

Designated Global Terrorist pursuant 

to Section 1(b) of Executive, Order 

13224, as Amended 

Acting under the authority of and in 

accordance with section 1(b) of 

Executive Order 13224 of September 23, 

2001, as amended by Executive Order 

13268 of July 2, 2002, and Executive 

Order 13284 of January 23, 2003, I 

hereby determine that the entity known 

as Ansar al- Dine, also known as Ansar 

Dine, also known as Ansar al-Din, also 

known as Ancar Dine, also known as 

Ansar ul-Din, also known as Ansar

Faith, 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.
