Summary / Abstract (Note) | Good intelligence relies on accuracy, probity and independence. In the current time of global terrorist threats, intelligence is more vital - and visible - than ever in protecting the public and national interest. But collection and analysis of information is fraught with difficulty. Even modern technology throws up as many problems as it solves by inundating operatives with a tsunami of information. Yet examination of the two main blunders of the last decade show that it is the human element that, as ever, is the weakest link in the intelligence chain. |
