#1 At first glance this has all the marks of a "Witch Hunt". Accuse someone and refuse to listen to anything that says "NO'.

#2 What are you going on about RJ? Here is an email from Abu-jihaad to Babar Ahmad:
A Profile In Terror, Behind A Keyboard
It says the group would be in the strait under a communications blackout on the night of April 29, 2001, and it contains a drawing of the group's anticipated formation. The document said, in part:

"Weakness:

They have nothing to stop a small craft with RPG [rocket-propelled grenades] etc, except their Seals stinger missiles.

Deploy ops in Gulf 29 April - 04 October

29th APRIL is more likely the day through the Straits. For the whole of March is tax free a moral booster. Many sailors do not like the gulf.

Please destroy message."

Hang the traitor from the Benfold's yardarm.

#3 I recommend keelhauling. On an aircraft carrier. Underway. At max speed. On a carrier that has been out of the yard for a long time, so the hull is covered with barnacles.
Too bad keelraking (hauling from fore to aft) isn't a practical idea on modern ships with screws.
