So with OIF closed down and everything moved move to OEF. What do you think is going to happen to the different software, programs, and database setup to track, process, collect and disseminate information?
Meaning what do you think will happen to CIDNE, KnIFE, Palantir and WTI? Will CINDE, KnIFE and others get shelved?

Nope. They're not going anywhere. Too many opportunities to "repurpose" them to civilian law enforcement use right here in the US. Sorta like all the surplus MRAPs.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
