Insurgent Backers To Have Funds FrozenBy Associated Press WASHINGTON — The Bush administration moved yesterday to financially clamp down on a general in Iran's powerful military wing, a Syrian TV station, and three other individuals accused of helping insurgents in Iraq. 
The Treasury Department's action means that any bank accounts or other assets found in America belonging to those named yesterday must be frozen. Americans also are prohibited from doing business with them. Ahmed Foruzandeh, a brigadier general in Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps's Quds Force was covered by the department's order. America said Mr. Foruzandeh and his associates provided financial support for violent acts against coalition forces in Iraq as well as Iraqi security forces.
