In January, 1995, the United States learned of a plot based in Manila to bomb 12 commercial jumbo jets of United States carriers flying Asian-Pacific routes. In December, 1994, the conspirators had engaged in a test on a Phillippines airliner using only about 10 percent of the explosives that were to be used in each of the bombs to be planted on United States airliners.

In Dar ed Salaam, no United States nationals were killed but four were injured; several foreign service nationals who worked at that Embassy were killed. The following defendants are included in the Indictment returned by the Southern District of New York:

The Rewards for Justice Program is a formidable weapon in the U.S. arsenal for combating international terrorism. Established by the 1984 Act to Combat International Terrorism, Public Law 98-533, the Program is administered by the U.S. Department of State's Bureau of Diplomatic Security.

Under this program, the Secretary of State may offer rewards of up to $5 million for information that prevents, frustrates, or favorably resolves acts of international terrorism against U.S. interests worldwide or leads to the arrest or conviction in any country of an individual for the commission of such an act.

Rewards may also be paid for information leading to the arrest or conviction of any individual conspiring or attempting to commit such a terrorist act, or aiding or abetting in the commission of such an act.

The Rewards for Justice Program has been an effective tool in the fight against international terrorism. In the past seven years, the United States has paid over $8 million in 22 cases to individuals who have come forward with credible information that puts terrorists behind bars or prevents acts of international terrorism worldwide.

The program played a significant role in the arrest of international terrorist Ramzi Yousef, whose capture is perhaps the textbook example of the effectiveness of the program. Yousef came to the United States prior to the bombing of the World Trade Center to coordinate the manufacture and placement of the bomb. He left the United States about the same time the bomb exploded, but his terrorist planning didn't stop there. Yousef allegedly made arrangements to simultaneously blow up 12 U.S. commercial airliners as they flew over the Pacific Ocean.

Using pictures and identifiers, the State Department flooded the world with posters, matchbooks, flyers, and newspaper ads with information about Yousef and his role in the World Trade Center bombing. A little less than two years later, an informant appeared with one of our reward offers and pinpointed ousef's location in Pakistan. Yousef was arrested shortly thereafter.

People with information on the September 11th attacks or any past or planned act of international terrorism against the United States are urged to contact the FBI or the Bureau of Diplomatic Security via any one of the following avenues:

In addition, people located overseas may contact the Regional Security Officer at the nearest U.S.Embassy or Consulate.

Terrorism threatens the security of all people, and our determination to fight it is greater than ever. Through the Rewards for Justice Program, we have tracked terrorists aggressively and made them pay for their crimes. Thousands of innocent lives around the world have been saved through the prevention of terrorist attacks. Without question, this program is one of the most valuable assets the U.S. Government has in the fight against international terrorism.
