How effective is RFJ?
In connection with the RFJ program, sources have provided information that has helped prevent or favorably resolve acts of international terrorism against U.S. interests and bring to justice some of the world’s most notorious terrorists. These efforts have saved countless innocent lives. In Iraq, for example, just 18 days after the announcement of reward offers for Uday and Qusay Hussein, a source came forward and provided information regarding their location. Another well-publicized success is the capture of Ramzi Yousef, one of the 1993 World Trade Center bombers, who was located in 1995 as the result of the information provided by a source in response to an RFJ reward offer.
