An Example of Utterly Useless "Intelligence"

[JBS]

If I'm to be quite honest, the perception around the world now is that America is borderline tolitarian now and has lost their marbles in general.

Some of us have that perception here as well.

Here are the real threats:

This whole thread is a perfect example of the paradox of warning.......

Nothing to see here, move along.

It's like reading a horoscope..."Something will happen to you today, it may be good or it may be bad. It could possibly involve another person, or it could just be you. You will also find yourself to be happy or sad today, or you may at times just not GAS either way. In spite of these circumstances you will find yourself where you are at any given time of the day. You may also find yourself thinking about things at various times."

Agree, but the irony of the world getting pissy because we are finally acting like the socialist country they thought we should be.

That's actually quite nice to know because often I've noticed a lot of Americans- on forums, I must admit- have the "we MUST be secure no matter the cost" attitude going on. Which IMO is wrong.

 

[JBS]

Not only do I think that's an unreasonable expectation because of its implications on personal liberty, I also believe it it is an impossible goal in a free and open society.

The world isn't risk free. So how much are you willing to pay to minimize a diminishing risk and one which was statistically low?
How much "security theatre" are you willing to indulge in, which the new 9/11 threat IMO definitely is?

I was surprised they even released what they did.

its not what they release but whom they release it to... my opinion - complete silence - would never work; chaff otherwise

(OPE/JIPOE+ISR) + (F3EAD+TRAP) = Happy Warfighter.

(OPE/JIPOE+ISR) + (F3EAD+TRAP) = Happy Warfighter.

I got the rest, what's TRAP? The only thing I know it to stand for is "tactical recovery of aircraft and personnel" and that doesn't seem to work in context.

 

[Brill]

Prob ref to honey trap.

lol

(OPE/JIPOE+ISR) + (F3EAD+TRAP) = Happy Warfighter.

OK so we've got Operational Preparation of the Environment, Joint Intelligence Prep of the Environment, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance, Find/Fix/Finish/Exploit/Analyze/Disseminate... and I've got nothing for TRAP. I would add though that some will say that OPE, JIPOE, and ISR are all elements of F3EAD anyway and you don't need to list them separately.

I see the Intel Geeks have a thread the rest of us must tap out of like the Troll and other Bravos with their precision shooting threads.

Time to go rally the Comm/ IT Geeks.

 

[JBS]

LOL

 

[SpitfireV]

You guys have too many acronyms. You should fire the guys who make them up, would save you billions per year.

Second that...and you can't understand us! Hehehe.

 

[Ben Dare]

TRAP = Tell Rambo to Adhere to Plans.... I think!

Or the medics! I say rally the medics. We are the best at everything, including your mom, and yeah everyone enjoys reading about others problems.
