FBI Director Louis Freeh wrote: “In April 1999, we placed bin Laden on the FBI’s Top Ten Most Wanted List. …Simultaneously, we created a bin Laden Unit at FBI headquarters. Arrest warrants were flying around the globe for him. …Our own investigations jumpstarted similar ones all across Europe and countries around the world, and every one of them filled in pieces of the puzzle.” [The 15th of the month used for date sorting purposes only.]
