    Military Intelligence can come from unlikely sources: during the Cold war, Soviet spies would use "Pizza Intelligence" - they would pay attention to large, late night deliveries to places like Langley or the Pentagon - the sort of food analysts or spies might order if they were monitoring an ongoing mission or planning a big operation. It wasn't the best indicator that something was about to go down, but it could give them a hint.

      or in modern times: Insecure dudes with egos via Internet forums LOL (see 'War Thunder' forums leaks and the 'Discord leaks').
      I have a note regarding that: My Mum and Dad used to run a Chinese takeaway. We had an (lower level security) American military base nearby and Marine personnel used to frequent our takeaway for food and my Mum and Dad's old work car, one of our workers and my Mum and Dad were one of the very few authorised civilian cars and civilians allowed onto the base to deliver the food to them. We had to submit to background checks etc to get the security authorisation. Both the US and my country's government knew we delivered to them. We were happy to do that because they usually ordered BIG. Once 9/11 happened, this all changed. They locked down the security and we couldn't deliver to them nor did they come down anymore.

    I was an intelligence analyst who became an interrogator when I was called to active duty in late 2002. I did a 47 day "TDY" in Iraq in order to teach "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques" because I have a very "dark" side.
    This video is a very good history of military intelligence, but it speaks little to the modern day intelligence work that like many other jobs-relatively mundane work with a few times a great excitement.

    and there is also lots to discuss wrt osint and citizen journalism, real time updates and social media vs traditional news media cycles, etc. that i think isn’t often brought up

      I don’t to be pedantic but it seems obvious that people and weapons are necessary. The US military is known for its logistics that supersedes all other peer-to-peer nations. Not to mention their Intel apparatus that keeps them more well informed than nearly any other nation. Anyone can be trained and shoot a gun. The most effective attribute their preemptive advantages to preparation and mobility equivalent to their person capabilities. Most high level units practice their operations 10s to 100s of times before execution. No little thanks to Intel and logistics.

  • @vincentscott8034
    @vincentscott8034 11 місяців тому +11

    Nice and short. I think you missed a couple foundational points. First describing as Tactical and Strategic. This is true and often the intelligence is talked about but missed the criticality of the Operational level of war. Often, I think OPINTEL is not only missed but the most important in the conduct of warfare. Second I would recommend a break down of intelligence into four bins. IMINT, SIGINT, HUMINT, and MASINT. Dont think you mentioned that last and it is an umbrella term that covers several you did mention (ACINT etc). Finally you described HUMINT as predominant or most important. I would argue that has been changing since WWI and was certainly not true in WWII. I would argue that SIGINT (Bletchley Park, enigma, ultra etc) was the most important in WWII although all kinds were important and played significant roles. Recommend "For the Presidents Eyes" only as a good book (fun read) that talks about intelligence well, and although focused on the strategic level really, it provides some good insight on operational intelligence and its importance.

    If you want to know how invaluable HUMINT is I once got my regular ass infantry platoon running missions with the CIA simply because I came in to get a soda. We were tasked with guarding an OGA compound in Mosul. Orders were do your job, stick to your building, mind your fucking business. They don't exist so you don't talk to anybody and gourd the "empty" compound. Anyway we stayed in Building 3 by the gate, they stayed in the main house on the Tigris. Building 2 was their TOC and a spare room was the extra coolers. Was a cushy gig. Air conditioning, marbelr everywhere, big beautiful vaulted ceilings in the main house gold fixtures, solid gold toilets and bidets. Shit was allegedly one of Uday's vacation homes & certainly looked as opulent as the palaces back in Baghdad. But this was just a tin little ranch down on the river's edge bellow the Mosul Hotel where we stayed. Anyway I come in after guard duty. Cooler is empy. Not a big deal, the rule was just go to the main house, grab whatever from their fridge, let someone know. They'll have the made or chef restock it. Yes I shit you not they had air conditioning, a maid, a personal chef, and even a fucking gardener. You'd think it was the Air Force. Anyway they were bickering over maps I corrected their shit with 1st source HUMINT. We ended up rolling with them.

    Military intelligence is simply not as exciting as this. Its also broken down into tactical, operational and strategic. For most people employed in military intelligence their output is part of an all-source cell where their tasks are collating information and figuring out enemy courses of action. The exciting stuff you have covered here is limited to a small group of people and mostly civilian intelligence agency based work. GCHQ is civilian and only has a small military arm. In modern times MI6 AND Mi5 rarely contribute to 'military' intelligence. The military has its own organic collection assets and typically fall into the operational or tactical realm.

    You can train an AI system to produce a reasonable Intelligence briefing from incoming battlefield reports. AI can predict the main axis of the enemy advance, since it has been training on huge amounts of wargame data. Based on the wargames data, AI can prepare an operational plan to counter the enemy operations. At present, humans are in the loop making the final decisions. At some point, this will take too long, so you will have your General Staff replaced by a laptop simply to remain competitive. I would say about 10 years for that, so buy stock in Cyberdyne Systems now.

      Any information that is useful is called intelligence. It can be simple from enemy coordinates or very complex like radar and satellite and other electronic information.

    Never underestimate your enemy,
    Always expect the unexpected, Maximum damage with minimum effort, Capitalize on your enemies weakness and exploit it to your advantage, Final rule of warfare If you have the element of surprise do not be afraid to use it. Intelligence wins wars, and that's why America lost Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan. You could also throw in North Korea to that with the Korean war. One more thing to add.
    It's constantly switch up your movements. So you're last predictable.
    A navy seal sang I Love because it just kind of fits for this episode is smooth as butter slick as in and out.Leave no trace that you were over there. If there's one thing we need to learn as America is we need to get out of the stupid phase of being over reliant on technology. Instead of the human history is proven time and time again that humans.
    Our superior To technology, we only rely on technology because we yearn. For something more than God himself.
    God bless America.
    But bring back the great America that once was. And this is a start.

      The US lost Vietnam because of public pressure at home, Iraq I'm pretty sure they did win it unless you're talking about another Iraq war, and Afghanistan they lost because Bush decided to make a sidequest in Iraq and make things worse for everyone.

    Early modern period postal services were routinely tapped into. The more centralized and efficient postal services became, the easier it was to have a centrally placed black cabinet opening them. The target could be both foreigners and internal conspirators. Mail was still not mass communication but hubs where mail was received and sorted developed. Most people didn't have a need or the means for regular communication on that level.
