<<HUMINT will be FUBAR by FY 06.>>
It won't take that long. With the pronouncement that every soldier is a sensor and that all SF folks are now "HUMINT Assets" the ability for any individual to establish a working relationship with a foreign national is FUBAR. Just think about it. Not only have the geniuses in the concrete sphinchter put all SF folks at risk by labeling them intelligence collectors but they have put all folks with whom SF must work in the host nation at risk by having them being labled as intelligence assets for the US. Does not do too much for an individual's longevity. Not only have they essentially defined everyone a source but now have almost spelled out the methods by which intelligence is to be gathered. Evidently the folks that are attempting to define how our intelligence effort is to be "reborn" are a tad short in having the common sense and intelligence not to discuss this with reporters and other media mouthpieces whose job has only to do with their own employment security and nothing to do with national security. Just a thought.
