Module 1 – Case
THE HISTORY, ROLE,
FUNCTION, AND ORGANIZATION OF THE U.S. INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY
Assignment Overview
The Use of Multiple INTs
According to General James Clapper, the Director of National
Intelligence as of July 2013, the U.S. has relied heavily on the use of SIGINT
for the identification and disruption of terrorist plots against the U.S. In a
July 2013 interview, he said:
Director Clapper: Well, two cases that come to mind [in
which SIGINT disrupted the terrorist plots], which are a little dated, but I
think in the interest of this discourse, should be shared with the American
people, they both occurred in 2009, one was the aborted plot to bomb the subway
in New York City in the fall of 2009.
And this all started with a communication from Pakistan to a
U.S. person in Colorado. And that led to the identification of a cell in New
York City who was bent on a major explosion, bombing of the New York City
subway. And a cell was rolled up and in their apartment we found backpacks with
bombs.
A second example, also occurring in 2009, involved one of
those involved, the perpetrators of the Mumbai bombing in India, David Headly.
And we aborted a plot against a Danish news publisher based on the same kind of
information.
So those are two specific cases of uncovering plots through
this mechanism that prevented terrorist attacks. (full transcript is available

Clearly, the national intelligence capabilities exceed only
our SIGINT capabilities.
Case Assignment
In this case, your task is to:
Summarize the use and capabilities of 3 other INTs that
would have been important in identifying or confirming one of these terrorist
threats against the U.S. and allies
Explain specific types of information that each of the 3
INTs is capable of collecting.
Explain the limitations of each of the INTs – what they
cannot be expected to reliably collect
Summarize the steps needed to analyze information across the
INTs.
Briefly describe the gap between the collection capabilities
of the Intelligence Community and the analysis capabilities, and propose
reasons for why the IC has consistently been able to prevent the gap exposing
the U.S. to terrorist threats.
Properly cite your quotations that you use to support your
statements. For more information, please consult the Purdue University OWL:

THE HISTORY, ROLE,
FUNCTION, AND ORGANIZATION OF THE U.S. INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY
NOTE: Session Long Projects 1 through 4 are concerned with
the scenario outlined in the Module 1 SLP. Please review that basic information
before proceeding. Each module’s Session Long Project builds upon the previous
ones.
For the SLPs in this course, your assignments will be based
on a scenario in which you have been assigned as a Terrorism Liaison Officer
(TLO) at a local police or fire department. You may pick which city will apply
in your SLPs. As the TLO, you will have a lot of duties, in addition to your
regular duties. Among the additional duties:
The TLO primary function is to help line staff identify
terrorism related situations and share intelligence related to terrorist
activity.
TLOs serve as the point-of-contact within their agencies for
questions and information regarding terrorism, and terrorism-related tips and
leads.
In most cases the TLO position is a collateral duty. TLOs
shall not independently investigate tips or leads unless directed to do so by
the proper authorities i.e. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Joint
Terrorism Task Force (JTTF), Fusion Center, etc., and stay within the
responsibilities of their assigned duties.
A TLO is to have a working relationship with the local
Regional Terrorism Threat Assessment Center (RTTAC), designated Intelligence
Center and JTTF, to help facilitate the movement of terror related information
to and from field personnel.
A TLO shall disseminate terrorism-related information and
intelligence to personnel within their agencies’ in an efficient and lawful
manner. TLOs are responsible for verifying that all personnel with whom they
share terrorism-related information have a valid need- and right-to-know the
information.
TLO s are responsible for educating personnel within their
agencies’ regarding the procedure(s) for submitting tips and leads to the
proper investigative authorities. For purposes of efficiency, it is not ideal
for TLOs to function as the collection point for tips and leads.
TLOs are encouraged to pursue advanced level Homeland
Security training courses as recommended and provided by their respective
RTTAC.
The TLO should be flexible to fulfill other expectations
and/or functions that may be determined by each individual RTTAC
As the assigned TLO, your first duties are to:
Examine the relevant priorities for your local department,
and develop a background paper on the different INTs for your Captain:
Identify the city you represent, and some of the major
problems with which you are confronted.
Briefly describe the capabilities of the intelligence
community.
Highlight 3 problems on which you can expect assistance from
the IC and 3 you will not.
Explain what information you are likely to receive for the
above.
Explain the limitations on who will have access to the
information, and why security control is important.
Explain how the capabilities of the IC are related to the
national focus on the Cold War.
Identify 2 gaps in your needs that you can advocate to the
IC.
Provide quotation(s) to support your response.’

Module 2 – Case
INTELLIGENCE
CHALLENGES IN THE 21ST CENTURY: ETHICAL AND LEGAL LIMITATIONS ON THE
INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY
Assignment Overview
The Ethics of Intelligence Collection
There has been heavy criticism of the IC largely focused on
domestic intelligence collection. In July 2013, the U.K. Guardian newspaper’s
Glenn Greenwald showed a 2008 NSA PowerPoint presentation about the X-Keyscore
program—which he published nearly in full—as proof that any NSA could easily
query a massive NSA database that holds “nearly everything a user does on the
Internet.” Sample searches include looking for Intel by email address, phone
number, files looked at, search terms used, or even cookies on a person’s
computer.
*A slide on “finding targets” suggests why a person might be
in the NSA’s crosshairs: Someone “whose language is out of place for the region
they are in,” “someone using encryption,” and “someone searching the web for
suspicious stuff.” (The presentation again reinforces that anyone going to
extreme measures to protect their privacy becomes a target, with use of
encryption and VPN mentioned as reasons to seek information on someone.) The
PowerPoint looks much like one worked up by a database vendor for a Big Data
conference—but with much more references to jihad, Iraq and Osama Bin Laden. It
claims “300 terrorists captured” based on Intel from the tool.
Most of this criticism has an ethical dimension contending
that the Intelligence Community not only did something incorrectly, but also
should have done better in some ethical sense.

everything a user does on the internet.’ The Guardian (U.K.), July 31, 2013.

Module 2 Scenario
As your city’s TLO, you have been invited to tour a JTTF
site nearby. You are shown several of the capabilities of the JTTF, and the
ways in which the IC can assist local LE. During your visit, people become very
excited about something that is going on. You are allowed into a large briefing
room, and the analysts are reviewing a video. (The video is available here:
http://youtu.be/5rXPrfnU3G0).
After the video, one of the analysts comes to you in the
hallway very upset. He says that the video that you saw showed Reuters
journalist Namir Noor-Eldeen, driver Saeed Chmagh, and several others as the
Apache shoots and kills them in a public square in Eastern Baghdad. They are
assumed to be insurgents. After the initial shooting, an unarmed group of
adults and children in a minivan arrives on the scene and attempts to transport
the wounded. They are fired upon as well. The attack was based on intelligence
that she had a part in analyzing, and she feels sick about it. To make matters
worse, the U.S. Army just released a statement denying responsibility for the
attack.
She is very afraid that the video will be made public, and
that the analysts involved will be “thrown under the bus.” She has come to you
as an outsider, for your perspective and advice.
Review the video, and comment about what the video shows
versus what she is afraid it shows (assume that the video has not been made
public). Is she justified in her fears?
Develop specific advice for her about the ethical dilemma
she faces, and whether and how she should report it, and to whom. Explain any
penalties that he/she might face if the dilemma is not confronted.
Determine whether you have a responsibility to report the
video to your supervisors, and what you would say – thinking about what they
will need in order to ensure that you are not somehow implicated. If you
believe that you will not need to report the video, explain why. Support either
point of view with the codes of ethics you looked at, the definition of a
dilemma.
Provide quotation(s) to support your response.
Although this video may stir emotions and/or challenge your
belief system, you must make ethical decisions based on the facts as presented.
What would you suggest to the analyst? Will you report it? Whatever you
decisions, support them with references.

Module 3 – Case
THE U.S. INTELLIGENCE
COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIPS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES
Assignment Overview
Why Can’t We Just Talk?
Since the 9/11 attacks, the demands placed on officers have
evolved to include more complex criminal activity, upswings in multi-jurisdictional
criminal matters, and an increased realization that terrorist activity is not
confined by neat boundaries on a map. As a September 2005 report by the
Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance noted, “a critical lesson
taken from the tragedy of September 11, 2001, is that intelligence is
everyone’s job,” and “everyone” now includes not only analysts within the
federal government but also law enforcement officers hailing from the nation’s
largest cities to its smallest towns and rural areas.
Indeed, the need for new and better ways to develop and
share law enforcement intelligence was among the first realizations in the
immediate wake of the attacks.
*“In my mind, it [information sharing] comes down to two
things,” FBI Director Robert Mueller stated later in Fall 2001. “First, giving
you [local law enforcement] the information you need to make judgments about
protecting your communities. And second, capitalizing on the ‘force multiplier’
effect that comes when we work together.”
The reality has been much different. As Senator Grassley
commented in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings, “Law enforcement and
intelligence agencies tell conflicting stories. Bureaucracies are gearing up to
do battle over who dropped the ball. They’re preparing their defenses. They’re
leaking bits and pieces of information favorable to themselves.”
This situation is described well as the Intelligence
Dilemma: “There are only two outcomes: an operational success and an
intelligence failure.”
*Mueller, R. (2001). Address to the 108th Annual Conference
of the International Association of Chiefs of Police. Retrieved from
http://www.fbi.gov/news/speeches/law-enforcement-cooperation-in-defeating-terrorism
Case Assignment
Look at a high profile case that involved local law
enforcement and the intelligence community. Some choices you might want to look
at include the Boston Marathon Bombing in April 2013, the Ft. Hood shootings in
November 2009, the September 11, 2001, attacks on New York and Washington, the
foiled Najibullah Zazi’s plot to bomb the New York subways (No information
seems to have been shared with local LE), or another case of your choosing.
Indicate which case you are looking at, and provide a link to the story if
needed.
Summarize the important points of the case, including when
the IC seemed to have information that could have been shared, and which agency
had the information.
Identify 3 reasons that the IC failed to share information.
Indicate whether each is an admission of the IC, a charge made by the LE
community (or another non-LE part of government), or a justified opinion on
your part.
From the perspective of the LE community, rebut the 3
reasons, and summarize how local LE could have re-positioned its efforts to
stop the attack.
Evaluate whether repositioning LE assets as a result of
information sharing would have impacted the final outcome, and whether it would
have been better to share information.
Properly cite your quotations that you use to support your
statements.

Module 3 Scenario
As your city’s TLO, you are in a unique position to see
information and to determine with whom it should be shared in your department.
You are also aware that previous programs for information sharing between the
IC and LE have not gone well.
Your Captain has been pressing you for details about whether
or not the IC is likely to share information with LE. He said that the mayor
has been invited to the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center, and would like
an overview of it as well as some specific reasons that the IC needs to support
and include local LE.
1. Prepare a memo to the mayor, in which you:
Describe the structure, organization, functions, and
effectiveness of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center.
Evaluate the history of the failures and successes in past
efforts to integrate the U.S. intelligence community with the law enforcement
community.
Propose some specific reasons that the IC should integrate
LE better into its planning and execution. Address sharing information equally,
appropriate limitations on sharing, and the speed with which information is
shared. These will be shared by the mayor with the IC officials in the meeting.
The Mayor also wants IC assistance in targeting a
drug/criminal gang that is active in the city (You may pick one that is
actually active in your city, or select an actual gang known to be in U.S.
cities). Provide insight to the Mayor on the capabilities and limitations of IC
information, and what he might expect from the IC.
2. Provide quotation(s) to support your response.

Module 4 – Case
INTELLIGENCE ISSUES
IN BORDER SECURITY, HUMAN TRAFFICKING, AND NARCOTICS TRAFFICKING
Assignment Overview
Border Security, human trafficking, and narcotics
trafficking are three non-traditional threats now facing the nation. None has
clear cut solutions, or clear cut rules for combatting them or collecting
intelligence about them.
Moreover, the dominant worldview of “borders” sees borders
mainly in military terms—something that the United States has been largely able
to avoid due to its placement on the globe. As a consequence, it is deeply
ingrained in the U.S. conscience and in the U.S. Constitution that the military
is not usually the appropriate organization to defend the U.S. borders
Is it time for that to change?
Case Assignment
Explain which
threat—physical border security, human trafficking, or narcotics trafficking—is
the most important to the nation at this time.
Explain how the other two threats—as well as one not listed
here (you have to find one, or use one that you have discussed in previous
assignments) impact the way in which we collect intelligence and combat the
threats.
Explain how counterintelligence efforts might play a role in
combatting the threat.
Identify which 2 INTs are most appropriate for collecting
information against the threat, and the limitations of both that will provide
gaps that the opposing side can exploit.
Properly cite your quotations that you use to support your
statements.
