Summary / Abstract (Note)On 28 May 2009, the Los Angeles Times reported that the United States Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) planned to significantly expand their role in global counterterrorism operations, as part of a policy shift that would replace the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)-dominated system of clandestine detentions and interrogations with one built around transparent investigations and prosecutions. This new "global justice" initiative has created a more central role for FBI agents in overseas counterterrorism cases, and harkens back to the FBI's Special Intelligence Service (SIS). In 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt had requested the creation of the SIS that served as the Bureau's foreign intelligence and counter-subversive wing in Latin and South America until its disbandment in 1947.
