So while I am inclined to support this measure. I am also inclined to support amendments that would improve it. For many years. we have watched with growing concern as terrorist violence has escalatedand reached closer to home. We can no longer ignore the fact that postcoldwar violence knows no borders. and respects no distinction between soldiers and innocents. Mr. President. fundraising for international terrorism now has roots in Americaand it has even reached the Midwest. In fact. in 1993 a group of Palestinian immigrants. linked to the infamous Abu Nidal terrorist organization. actively raised money here for terrorism abroad. Surprisingly. this terrorist cell extended from St. Louis.
