how is freezing the money of a nation that gets 80% or more of their funding from drugs going to change anything? you are talking about nations that the largest percentage of the rural population live in mud brick homes with no electricity or running water.
when the people in power are making all the money they want, legally or otehrwise, and the rest of the population is dirt poor it does no good to cut off funds that mostly go through international aid organizations to fund medical and school facilities.
you seem to be under some delusion that the terrorist and extremist groups that are in question here are getting handed large checks by the US. these people are criminals, and use criminal means to their fund raising.
