However, these tendencies can also be overstated. There is also a lot of sharing and a lot of collaboration. But one of DCI George Tenet's greatest challenges is figuring out how to make 13 agencies share and work together. Is this not putting the fox in the chicken coop. The Intelligence Community isn't in charge of security now, and I certainly don't think it should be in the future.
Security is primarily in the hands of law enforcement and the military.
Hello Mr Loeb, It seems that Chinese intelligence deliberately targeted ethnic Chinese researchers as potential sources of secret information about the US nuclear weapons program. But I think it would be wrong to target Chinese Americans as counterespionage suspects solely, or even largely, on the basis of ethnicity, absent some other compelling reason to look at them. Otherwise, you would be making targets out of thousands of innocent people on the basis of ethnicity. In the case of Wen Ho Lee, given all the circumstantial evidence, taking his ethnicity into account was probably valid. Waco has clearly been a blow to the bureau's credibility.
