Companion and Sequel to COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE: Creating a Prosperous World at Peace
The truth at any cost reduces all other costs. I am a recovering spy who in 1988 discovered that virtually all of our very expensive secret sources and methods were largely worthless in terms of decision-support to policy-makers, acquisition managers, and operational field commanders. Today the US taxpayer funds a $75 billion a year intelligence-industrial-congressional complex (alongside a $750 billion a year military-industrial-congressional complex), and the verdict is in: the secret world provides, “at best” 4% of a top commander’s knowledge; and in my own findings and those of the US Army Strategic Studies Institute (SSI) and others, the Pentagon is optimized for 10% of the threat—state on state high-intensity conflict. Today in both Afghanistan and Iraq, our earnest warriors are turning to open sources of information, and striving to create human capabilities that yield no profit to the beltway bandits but actually accomplish the mission. We wage war badly while the Chinese and others wage peace very effectively.
