Now the priorities are reversed and the challenge is enormous. States had an address, and they were hierarchical and bureaucratic. They thus came with some 'story'. Terrorists do not. States were 'over there', but terrorists are there and here. They thus put pressure on intelligence at home, not just abroad. The strength of this book is that it underscores the extent of the change and ranges broadly across data collection and analysis, foreign and domestic, as well as presenting the issues of value that arise as new targets require collecting more information at home.Intelligence serviceUnited StatesTerrorismGovernment policyUnited StatesIntelligence serviceTerrorismGovernment policy363.325/1630973Treverton Gregory F.651023UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910818492203321Intelligence for an age of terror3946445UNINA
