From the Paper:

"Across the globe specific terrorist groups have existed as forces to be reckoned with. Groups such as Hamas, the Irish Republic Army, and the Palestinian Liberation Organization have caused terror for decades. Reasons for this include the abundance of resources that these groups have available to them. These resources are required in various ways allowing them to flourish as organizations. Law enforcement must investigate terrorist financing in order to successfully dismantle terrorist organizations."
