From The Boston Globe a portrait of American open source analysts, including our own Clint Watts (CWOT) and sub-titled:The last sentence refelects the thread discussion on why traditional intelligence in the MENA and Ukraine:A new generation of self-made experts is tracking extremists through their online activity — and rewriting the rules of intelligence in the processLink:http://www.bostonglobe.com/ideas/201...?event=event25The true lesson of the independent jihadi trackers might be that the intelligence and policy establishment needs to be quicker to follow the culture wherever it chooses to communicate, sometimes leaving secret insights scattered in plain sight.

Attention undergraduates.
http://www.independent.co.uk/life-st...-a7570856.htmlWikipedia editors have said they will no longer accept links to Daily Mail stories to support citations because it is too#unreliable.
A fiery debate on its suitability as a source ended with a consensus view that the#Mail, and#Mail Online, were "generally unreliable" and their use "is to be generally prohibited, especially when other more reliable sources exist".
The statement added: "The general themes of the support votes centred on the Daily Mail's reputation for poor fact checking, sensationalism, and flat-out fabrication."
