The problem earlier stated was that we needed people who speak Arabic, and are familiar with the region. More and more people from that region are coming here, and can help the U.S. intel services have better knowledge.
They can't help because they wouldn't get a security clearance.

The point I made about pointing out Jonathan Pollard was to TalDew who was stating I was not providing proof Israel commits espionage against the U.S. Obviously the U.S. does it the other countries, the point was to outline that the Israeli government is actively committing espionage against the U.S. government.
No one knows that for sure. People saying they suspect it doesn't equal actively doing it.

The example was meant to show out the dangers of relying on other Intel agencies from most other countries for information. As I already stated, nobody can know everything, good thing is the U.S. has the other five eyes partners, although even that is not infallible. Relying on other Intel agencies that are rival to you is something to be avoided, but unfortunately there are times, and those times should ideally be kept few and far between.
All intelligence has to be taken with care. In the intelligence world you want to know almost everything because not knowing can get you or someone else killed. Every intelligence agencies in the world is a rival and you can't avoid it. This is just a fact all countries rely on other intelligence agencies in different regions. I mean do you think that the French, Germans, Great Britain are any better?

I know about the background checks, more classified it is more rigorous the security checks, obviously they will not let any yahoo in. The point about people coming here from the Middle East is that we have something we can utilize. For example some of these people could be recruited as teachers of the language, and customs, something I am pretty sure you do not need security clearances for. Since you worked in intelligence you tell me.
Getting a top secret security clearance is not just a background check. They check your entire history, including friends, family. People coming to the U.S. can not simply be utilize as you think. Anyone that does any work for intelligence has to be checked and be a U.S. citizen. You can't really check a person background that well when they spent most or all of their life in the Middle East. Keep in mind a lot of these agencies require you be under 35 as well.

If the trend continues, the population from the Middle East, or of its descent, will grow, and the ability of the U.S. to be more self-sufficient in this matter will improve.
That won't change anything in the intelligence field.

Not really, although I'd expect you to be someone that recognizes when a nerve is hit a lot better than you do.
After all, I made one comment in another thread and FLAT OUT DESTROYED your nerves to the point that you started screaming at me in subsequent posts that I was a "Hamas stooge" (nevermind that I've never met anyone in Hamas before).
I had to go in your private message box to calm you down.

So really...you're one to talk.
This is great. Keep in mind the person who initiates the PM's is generally the one that's pissed. Were you mad I told you to go fly a kite after your groveling?
I really don't care what you think. You can keep ranting and raving about how Israel has stolen your two hamburgers til you're blue in the face. Everyone here knows that's not your real issue.
When in reality I'm a white-Caucasian American whom hates the idea of Zionism because it encompassed a forceful and collective effort of European Zionists to influence Western powers to allow them to migrate en masse to Palestine and subversively set up a state via terrorist attacks (King David Hotel bombing) and massacres of the local population (Deir Yasin).

I saw it too and laughed. For a person to say they been somewhere and ethnically from the region, they are quite ignorant about the history.
I've proven that Jews hadn't made up a significant portion of the population of Palestine since around the time Jesus Christ walked the earth up until the Zionist movement. Jews from everywhere but Palestine now make up 99% of the Jewish population in Palestine... Unless you say that someone is "from" somewhere based off of roots from 2000 years ago. I guess I need to knock down the borders of Rome and reclaim my ancient homeland of Italy as my forefathers were Romans whom settled in North Africa!

You haven't proven anything. In fact when someone told you to prove it all you did was kept using a report that made a guest.
"Jews from everywhere but Palestine now make up 99% of the Jewish population in Palestine"
That is a straight out lie. This is how I know you have no clue at all about the region and Palestine is not a country. You just love to spread your false narrative in countless threads. You made countless claims in this thread over several pages and didn't prove a single one. That in itself proves everything.
