Congressional Terrorism Hearings: Iraq, North Korea & Central Asia

By Andrew Cochran

A thin week for terrorism-related hearings this week in Congress - two on the status of Iraq, one on North Korea's illicit income, and one on U.S. policy in Central Asia. The North Korean income issue includes a tie to the old IRA through the indictment last year of Sean Garland, a "Official IRA" figure who was allegedly involved in passing counterfeit dollars on behalf of the regime. Garland jumped bail in December in the UK to avoid being extradited to the U.S. You can download the file with the hearing schedule here (Word file).
