Executive Order 13438

By Darren Weeks

I'm researching a new executive order, just signed by Bush, dealing with the blocking of property of persons who interfere with "stabilization efforts" in Iraq. The question is whether this new executive order could be used to seize the property of war critics.

The whole matter seems rather convoluted, but knowing that one word in the law can open up an entire new can of worms, it wouldn't be surprising.

I welcome the input of any legal scholars who might be out there.
