“April 30 [2004]. According to a letter sent by the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) to the U.S. Congress late last year (and now provided to the Associated Press) the Treasury Department had 4 full-time employees dedicated to investigating Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein, and over 2 dozen assigned to investigating Cuban Embargo violations. The letter reveals that over $8 million were collected in embargo violation fines since 1994, and over 10,683 ‘enforcement investigations’ opened since 1990. Relating to terrorism, the OFAC opened 93 ‘enforcement investigations’ between 1990 and 2003.”
