(Reuters/ABC News) Caroline Drees - Saudi Arabia must do a better job at ferreting out major individual donors who continue to fund terrorism abroad, including in Iraq, Stuart Levey, the Treasury's undersecretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, said Tuesday. "Is money leaving Saudi Arabia to fund terrorism abroad? Yes." "Undoubtedly, some of that money is going to Iraq. And it's going to Southeast Asia and it's going to any other place where there are terrorists." Asked whether there was a gap between Saudi government rhetoric and the implementation of policy, Levey replied: "I've got to say that there's a lag....And we'll see if there's a gap."
