FBI agent disillusioned by the war on terror - Fritz - 09-01-2021
Terry Albury, an idealistic F.B.I. agent, grew so disillusioned by the war on terror that he was willing to leak classified documents — and go to prison for doing it.

"he was approached by two senior agents and encouraged to take an Arabic language class at U.C. Berkeley and to start hanging around at the Zaytuna Institute, a nearby Islamic community education center. It was an off-book assignment, as Albury was neither a special agent nor a trained undercover operative, but he was smart and a quick study.
He was also Black, which he came to understand would be an asset in this new threat environment."

I just recently watched The Falcon and the Snowman again.

That is a bit too long. I think the articles that used his information would have made more of an impact if Cheeto hadn't been elected. There are too many people in various law enforcement agencies that are receptive to what he was trying to expose.
