“9·11”恐怖事件不仅损害了美国情报机构在美国人民心目中的地位,而且也使情报人员的精神严重受挫。在情报界内部,他们也不得不承认自己犯下了其严重程度可与“珍珠港事件”相提并论的情报误判。但是从长远来看,这次恐怖事件对美国情报机构来说反倒可能是一个巨大的机遇。目前,美国情报机构获得大笔经费,招兵买马,采取技术监听手段,在全球拉开了打赢一场看不见战争的序幕。 The September 11 terrorist incident not only harmed the position of the U.S. intelligence agencies in the eyes of the American people, but also seriously frustrated the intelligence personnel. Inside the intelligence community, they too have to admit they have made a mistake in intelligence that their severity can be compared with the “Pearl Harbor incident.” But in the long run, the terrorist incident could be a huge opportunity for the U.S. intelligence agencies. At present, the intelligence agencies in the United States have obtained large sums of money, recruited troops and troops and taken technical monitoring measures. They have opened the curtain for winning an invisible war in the world.
