Yes, to some degree.
But the gain is the terrorists which were using counterfeit money to buy military supplies now need to make more counterfeit money, or buy less supplies.
If they make more money, it's possible it's easier for us to find out where the money is coming from.
If they buy less supplies, it's clearly to our military's advantage.
No way to know for sure, but that is a guess as to one tactic being used to fight the terrorists.
