[Intelforum] Fixing intelligence

...and might I also respectfully add that the problems are not only limited
to the USA, one suspects the lack of offencive CI across the board is also
severely lacking among several others such as in Australia and Britain as
well...a point taken given the seemingly aggressive PRC activities across a
wider field in Southeast Asia,  and I also support the point that for far
too long the fourth arm of the government - the media - has been taking too
much of the lead in shaping public opinion.  One might also argue that the
lack of lateral thought is astounding as is the self-perpetuating
'self-licking icecream' syndrome that appears to be becoming the accepted
'norm' in CI arguments.

surprising effectiveness.  A genuine unfashionable opinion is almost never
given a fair hearing."
