Open Source Intelligence OSINT Links Table from Ben Benavides IN MEMORY OF WINSTON MAIKE, OSINT PIONEER DNI OSINT Epitaph at 2008-08-15 Links That Are NOT Included in LIBRARY Document.

2009-04-23 OSINT Links Table from Ben Benavides Ben Benavides, now retired from the Army, has offered up his OSINT Links Table for general use, under Creative Commons license (free to all, may not be used commercially without a contract with him). 2009-02-27 CouinterPunch OpEd See the link dated today for CounterPunch publication of the OpEd on "Intelligence for the President--AND Everyone Else" 2008-11-10 The Defense Science Board's newest report contains the wisdom of Dr. Joe Markowtiz, still the only adult in the U.S. Government that has a clue about the challenges and possibilities of Open Source Intelligence. Below we provide three links: 1) Article that correctly interprets the DSB words on OSINT. 2) The words in a single page with comments. 3) Link to the DSB Report itself. Ho hum. Been there, done that. 1992: Arnie Donahue says "there is plenty of money for OSINT." 2008: defies belief. Note: the Wikipedia OSINT page has degenerated into real garbage, as trolls have vandalized any attempt to point to the NATO, JMITC, or SOF OSINT Handbooks, as well as other sharp critiques of the virtually non-existent DNI OSINT "program" (technically it is not a program because there is no program line in DNI budget for OSINT, it is not in the DNI 100 or 500 day plans, there is no consolidated authority, no staff, no discretionary spending, the list goes on. The pig--and its lipstick--are dead. See the poor but honest Alternative Wikipedia OSINT page at the link dated 2008-08-15. However, with the systematic destruction of the "stubs" pointing to the JMITC (DIA), NATO, and SOF Handbooks, even those cannot be reached via Wikipedia. It has self-destructed on the topic of OSINT. Use the Fast Track Library links for direct access to each of the tribes and to the training materials, none of which appear at Wikipedia because CIA and its quislings (as well as the standard Wikipedia trolls who know nothing of intelligence) stalk and delete any entry pointing to www.oss.net. For those being led here by this page's popularity, please do not overlook the higher home page, www.oss.net, which offers both key shortcuts to the seminal directories of OSINT references, and a number of contextual and complementary offerings including Information Operations and Collective Intelligence. With excellent editing and inputs from those who actually know something about OSINT, the link dated 24 June 2008 is Steele's last word on IC OSINT--an epitaph for the pig's lipstick. DNI OSINT is dead, dead, dead..... For all new Public Intelligence material, please visit Earth Intelligence Network, www.earth-intelligence.net.
