FBI Proposes Building Network of U.S. Informants
July 25, 2007 ABC NEWS
Justin Rood Reports:
The FBI is taking cues from the CIA to recruit thousands of covert informants in the United States as part of a sprawling effort to boost its intelligence capabilities.
According to a recent unclassified report to Congress, the FBI expects its informants to provide secrets about possible terrorists and foreign spies, although some may also be expected to aid with criminal investigations, in the tradition of law enforcement confidential informants. The FBI did not respond to requests for comment on this story.
The FBI said the push was driven by a 2004 directive from President Bush ordering the bureau to improve its counterterrorism efforts by boosting its human intelligence capabilities.
The aggressive push for more secret informants appears to be part of a new effort to grow its intelligence and counterterrorism efforts. Other recent proposals include expanding its collection and analysis of data on U.S. persons, retaining years' worth of Americans' phone records and even increasing so-called "black bag" secret entry operations.
Excellent! -- DSH
To handle the increase in so-called human sources, the FBI also plans to overhaul its database system, so it can manage records and verify the accuracy of information from "more than 15,000" informants, according to the document. While many of the recruited informants will apparently be U.S. residents, some informants may be overseas, recruited by FBI agents in foreign offices, the report indicates.
The total cost of the effort tops $22 million, according to the document.
A drop in the bucket. Give the FBI far more funding for these important HUMINT efforts -- AS the programs mature and can absorb, control and administer the funds properly. -- DSH
The bureau has arranged to use elements of CIA training to teach FBI agents about "Source Targeting and Development," the report states. The courses will train FBI special agents on the "comprehensive tradecraft" needed to identify, recruit and manage these "confidential human sources." According to January testimony by FBI Deputy Director John S. Pistole, the CIA has been working with the bureau on the course.
Excellent! Yes, the CIA and some select elements in the Defense and Armed Service Intelligence & Cryptologic Agencies are best qualified to do that. -- DSH
The bureau apparently mulled whether to adopt entire training courses from the CIA or from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), which like the CIA recruits spies overseas. But the FBI ultimately determined "the courses offered by those agencies would not meet the needs of the FBI's unique law enforcement." The FBI report said it would also give agents "legal and policy" training, noting that its domestic intelligence efforts are "constitutionally sensitive."
"It's probably a good sign they are not adopting CIA recruitment techniques wholesale," said Steven Aftergood of the Federation of American Scientists, an expert on classified programs. U.S. intelligence officers abroad can use bribery, extortion, and other patently illegal acts to corral sources into working for them, Aftergood noted. "You're not supposed to do that in the United States," he said.

"The FBI plans on using real bullets in their firearms."
Excellent!

Do you mean that the major counter intelligence and counter terrorism agency in the United States doesn't maintain a network of paid informants.
How quaint.
They'll be saying "Gentlemen do not read each other's mail" next...

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach Time for tea.
D. Spencer Hines - 25 Jul 2007 22:28 GMT That quotation is often attributed to a Yale man, Class of 1888 -- but the evidence is slim as to whether he actually said it with the intent often read into it by the poguenoscenti. <G>
As far as I'm concerned, gentleman should damn well read whatever they can get their hands on.

Mind you, I know it...

D. Spencer Hines - 26 Jul 2007 00:05 GMT Black The Red needs to:
PROVE:
1. Henry Stimson said it, as Black previously quoted the assertion -- "Gentlemen do not read each other's mail".
2. Stimson meant the American Federal Government should NOT have a "Black Chamber" "reading other people's mail".
3. The Burden of Proof is on Black The Red.

J Antero - 25 Jul 2007 22:20 GMT More and more reasons the Republican party is going to get badly beaten.
Bush morons are destroying the Republican party, and are giving leftist feminists lots of comparative credibility.
*In January 2003, two months before the invasion of Iraq, Bush had not yet heard of the Sunni-Shia divide within Islam, (Ambassador Peter Galbraith).*
*When asked a few years ago whether he had consulted his father before going to war against Iraq, Bush replied: "You know he is the wrong father to appeal to in terms of strength. There is a higher father that I appeal to." In other words, he thinks he can receive superior advice on international policy and war, from supernatural beings.*
"The fact that he relies on facts --" says things that are not factual --" are going to undermine his campaign." --George W. Bush on Al Gore, New York Times, March 4, 2000
"I was raised in the West. The West of Texas. It's pretty close to California. In more ways than Washington, D.C., is close to California." -George W. Bush, in Los Angeles as quoted by the Los Angeles Times, April 8, 2000
"I don't have to accept their tenants. I was trying to convince those college students to accept my tenants. And I reject any labeling me because I happened to go to the university." --George W. Bush, Today, Feb. 23, 2000
"I understand small business growth. I was one." --George W. Bush, New York Daily News, Feb. 19, 2000
"The senator has got to understand if he's going to have --" he can't have it both ways. He can't take the high horse and then claim the low road." --George W. Bush, on Sen. John McCain, speaking to reporters in Florence, S.C., Feb. 17, 2000

That should be fun.
The cleaning lady he tried to appoint to the Supreme Court has been subpoenaed and told Congress "Go shave your balls, old farts." Or the equivalent. That should be fun.
The Senate is looking into Gonzalez's probable perjury. That should be fun too.
If you think that the bush administration will find it hard to do something for an encore, after heckuva-job-Brownie and other delights it has given the nation, you are wrong.
Bush administration appointee to the Advisory Committee for Reproductive Health Drugs in the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Dr. W. David Hager, a prominent obstetrician-gynecologist and Christian fundamentalist, who wrote books like "Stress and the Woman's Body and As Jesus Cared for Women," tops it all.
Dr. Hager rabidly shares the Fundamentalist's sexual mores if you listen to his speeches, but after his wife of more than 30 years divorced him, it surfaced that for years, Dr. Hager had been raping her anally during her sleep. She was narcoleptic, though he raped her while awake at times as well.
She has stated: "I probably wouldn't have objected so much, or felt it was so abusive if he had just wanted normal sex all the time. But it was the painful, invasive, totally non-consensual nature of the anal sex that was so horrible."
The woman just had enough of waking up with a sore butt, and from a Christian Right sodomite of all people... addicted to non-procreative acts.
Dr. Hager doesn't deny the charge, and he can explain it. "I missed," he says.
Yes folks, the Bush administration has managed to find -- and hire -- the only eminent gynecologist who can't find his wife's pussy.
Top that.

Sexual perverts, faggots, jesus braindeads, all "led" by a mental defective drug abuser who can't even speak a cogent sentence.
When it comes to Bush and his scum bunch, you just couldn't make it up if you were writing fiction - it would sound too over-the-top.
As I've said before, Bush and Cheney need to be impeached and removed, for the good of the country. A Baker-Hamilton war council could be used to handle the curent on-going crisis the scums have created.
Bush/Cheney can not be depended upon to make honest, competent decisions re. the messes they've created in Iraq and elsewhere. And, the attacks on the Constitution, and the attackers, have to be destroyed, so the abuses don't remain for future Presidents to build on.
In the US, we're not dealing with our problems and we're going to pay for that.
> She has stated: "I probably wouldn't have objected so much, or felt it > was so abusive if he had just wanted normal sex all the time. But it [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Top that. Umm, how about an evangelist leader that the President Bush consulted with weekly, turning out to be an active homo who uses call boys?
There's an interesting symetry in that they both involve rump riders....
Bush speaks his mind....
"The Bob Jones policy on interracial dating, I mean I spoke out on interracial dating. I spoke against that. I spoke out against interracial dating. I support the policy of interracial dating." --George W. Bush, interview with CBS News, February 25, 2000
"If you're sick and tired of the politics of cynicism and polls and principles, come and join this campaign." --George W. Bush, Hilton Head, S.C., Feb. 16, 2000
"The most important job is not to be governor, or first lady in my case." --George W. Bush, Pella, Iowa, as quoted by the San Antonio Express-News, Jan. 30, 2000
"What I am against is quotas. I am against hard quotas, quotas they basically delineate based upon whatever. However they delineate, quotas, I think vulcanize society. So I don't know how that fits into what everybody else is saying, their relative positions, but that's my position.'' --George W. Bush, as quoted by the San Francisco Chronicle, Jan. 21, 2000
