HUMINT is the heart of the matter. What CIA, DIA, SOCOM, and DHS are doing in the HUMINT arena is more of the wrong thing. Now that NSA is being revealed as the naked (and rather dumb) emperor of intelligence, IMINT is largely dead (and what the drones should be doing instead of killing 98% wrong targets), MASINT is still not worth the money we spend on it, and OSINT has been corrupted beyond belief, the time is right to revisit the entirety of intelligence (decision-support). Here is my HUMINT scorecard only, 2012 USA Human Intelligence (HUMINT) Scorecard 1.1 and three starting points:
Intelligence for the President–AND Everyone Else, as published in CounterPunch, Weekend Edition, February 27 – 1 March 2009
Fixing the White House and National Intelligence, International Journal of Intelligence and Counterintelligence, Spring 2010
Human Intelligence (HUMINT): All Humans, All Minds, All the Time(US Army Strategic Studies Institute, June 2010
At the highest level, new and not captured by the search term, we recommend:
humint is such a common search you are almost always better off starting with the Search Directory in the middle column,
- Searches (331)
- Directory (List) (1)
That will yield right away:
Search: how much humint is clandestine — Response by Robert Steele + Clandestine Meta-RECAP
Search: humint [as of 20130127]
Search: humint [Human Intelligence] HUMINT + Meta-RECAP
Search: humint spectrum full spectrum
Search: humint vs. techint .ppt
Search: the death of humint + HUMINT RECAP
