Steele's brain on intelligence
by Aimee Farr 21 Jun '01

21 Jun '01

http://www.oss.net/Papers/white/TheNewCraftofIntelligence.doc The New Craft of Intelligence Robert David Steele REVIEW Draft Select quotes: -------------- o "We are wasting today at least $10 billion a year on secret technical intelligence collection systems whose fruits cannot be harvested, and we are about to waste $60 billion over ten years recapitalizing these same secret technical collection systems, so that we might collect 100 times more information, and process still less of it." o "The center of gravity for both national security and national prosperity lie now in the private sector and its intellectual property as well as its accumulated knowledge. The concepts of noosphere (Pierre Tielhard de Chardin) and "world brain" (H.G. Wells) are now an imminent reality, and the World Intelligence Center envisioned by Quincy Wright is achievable." o "Eighth, the President must eliminate export restrictions on encryption and recognize that the greatest opportunity of all faces us. We can raise the Internet's security level to where it can handle Presidential communications. The moment we do that, we embrace the world and make it possible for an extraordinary variety of multilateral relationships to bloom in cyberspace." -[]- ~Aimee

FBI frame-job

http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/us/DailyNews/cyanide010606.html # # Newly Revealed Documents Prove Woman Innocent of Cyanide Killings, # PI Says # # Stella Nickell has never stopped denying she killed her husband # Bruce with cyanide in 1986. But now her defense team says they # can prove her innocence. # # Nickell, 57, is serving two 90-year prison terms after being # found guilty of putting cyanide in a pain-reliever capsule taken # by her husband and trying to hide the crime by tampering with # other bottles of the over-the-counter drug, which resulted in # a second death. # # Her case came at a time when the country was reeling from a series # of drug-tampering incidents. # # Now, two private investigators who have been digging into the # Seattle case for 14 months say they can prove her innocence with # documents the FBI never turned over to the defense at the time # of the trial. # # If the claim sounds strangely familiar, think again, says Al # Farr, one of the two sleuths who have been working on the case. # "I know when news first got out there that we were doing this, # some people assumed we were just floating on Tim McVeigh's # coattails," Farr said. "That couldn't be further from the truth." # # The FBI has admitted it failed to turn over more than 4,000 # documents in the case of McVeigh, who faces the death penalty # for the deadly Oklahoma City bombing. [snip] # Then, in October, he was contacted by former FBI lab worker # Frederic Whitehurst, who told him he had 1,000 pages of # FBI documents related to the case that were never seen during # the trial.
