==Organization== The Counterterrorism Division has several branches:<ref>{{Cite web |date=December 2003 |title=Counterterroism Division Organizational Chart |url=https://oig.justice.gov/reports/FBI/a0410/orgchart.htm |access-date=2022-08-16 |website=[[United States Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General|Office of the Inspector General]]}}</ref> * Intelligence Branch * Operations Branch I * Operations Branch II * Operations Branch III * Analytical Branch * Operational Support Branch '''Operations Branch I''' is composed of two sections: International Terrorism Operations Section I (ITOS-I) and International Terrorism Operations Section II (ITOS-II). The ITOS-I covers [[al Qaeda]] terrorist activity on a regional basis in the United States and abroad. ITOS-II focuses on four non-al Qaeda groups: [[Palestinian people|Palestinian]] rejectionist groups, [[Iran]] and [[Hezbollah]], [[Iraq]]/[[Syria]]/[[Libya]], and other global terrorist groups. ITOS II has a [[Central Intelligence Agency]] officer serving as Deputy Section Chief, and an FBI agent is detailed to the CIA's [[Counterterrorism Center]] as that unit's Deputy Director. '''Operations Branch II''' includes three more disparate sections: the [[Domestic terrorism in the United States|Domestic Terrorism]] Operations Section (DTOS), [[Communications Exploitation Section|Exploitation Threat Section]] (XTS), and Terrorist Financing Operations Section (TFOS). ** The DTOS mission is overseeing and providing operational support to FBI domestic terrorism investigations nationwide. ** The TFOS is an operational and coordinating entity. It directs [[terrorism financing]] investigations and works jointly with partners to block and freeze assets. However, its primary role is to coordinate and support the financial components of terrorism investigations conducted by ITOS I and II. The TFOS mission is to identify, investigate, prosecute, disrupt, and incrementally dismantle all terrorist-related financial and fund-raising activities. The section is composed of four units: *** Radical Fundamentalist Financial Investigative Unit *** Domestic WMD and Global Financial Investigations Unit *** Global Extremist Financial Investigations Unit *** Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit. The '''Analytical Branch''' includes two sections: the Counterterrorism Analysis Section (which supports Operations I and II) and the Terrorism Reports and Requirements Section (TRRS). The Branch also includes a Strategic Assessment and Analysis Unit, Production and Publications Unit. The '''Operational Support Branch''' manages the CTD's administrative and resource functions, FBI detailees to other agencies, and the Foreign Terrorist Tracking Task Force. The various local [[Joint Terrorism Task Force]]s falls under the domain of this branch.
