On August 2, 1995, Federal Protective Services special agent Thomas Williams sent a memo to his branch chief, John Crowe, detailing his communication with terrorism task-force director Yossef Bodansky.

I have to ask this question because I'm in the dark on it: Is Bodansky a good or bad guy?

My impression is that he is a fix-it agent; that is, he wants to steer the investigation clear of the obvious ME connections, all the while maintaining the confidence of those investigators (Jayna Davis, for one) he comes in contact with.

I get the impression from this article that Jayna Davis is trying to put the heat on Bodansky and possibly distance herself from him at the same time.

I'm tired and it's late, so I'll come back and visit this thread over the weekend again.

glorygirl, thanks for the excellent post. There are lots of nuggets in this one, like the Army memo.

looks that way to me, too. seems she felt the need to tape a lot of conversations with bodansky for some reason?

I don't think Bodansky gave Jayna the 'okay' to release his name as the source of the "prior warning" message, so he's probably sitting on top of a powder keg right now, caught in the political cross hairs. If you'll notice, his comment about not being able to say anything because he works for the government is FAR different than outright denying or discrediting the Middle East connection.

I would imagine that our duly-elected politicians have to tread lightly on this powder keg because they've been sitting on top of Jayna Davis' information for all these years and have done nothing with it. Public pressure from FReepers could do nothing but help.
