The U.S.-led effort to track money belonging to terrorist groups has been hobbled by bureaucratic infighting and a growing understanding by investigators that most of al Qaeda's money is not in banks but in untraceable commodities, including gold and diamonds, according to U.S. and international officials.

The transfer of al Qaeda's assets, the scale of which is only now becoming clear, has left much of the organization's financial network untouched by the Bush administration's campaign to freeze terrorist funds around the globe.
