B-I - Daniel talks with Diarmuid Jeffreys, author of "The Bureau - Inside the Modern FBI" (Hougton Mifflin). Jeffreys discusses a period during the 1980's when the FBI investigated people belonging to peace and activist groups that were critical of U.S. policies in Latin America. Jeffreys says this period was reminescent of other dark periods in the Bureau when the FBI turned its attention towards investigating people in the U.S. based largely on their political views.
