Compare and contrast the capabilities of foreign intelligence organizations to determine which country poses the greatest threat to U.S. national security. You will assess their HUMINT, OSINT, SIGINT, MASINT, and GEOINT capabilities. Also describe their intelligence organization. Detail is key.
1. Compare and contrast Chinese, Iranian, and Russian intelligence organizations. Of the three nations, which one do you think (backed up by good analysis from reliable sources) poses the greatest threat to U.S. national security? Be sure to fully support your position using multiples examples from the course readings AND your own research.
2. Secondary Option: You will have to do outside research for this, but if you wish, compare and contrast: Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iran. Of the 3, which one do you think is the greatest threat to U.S. national security. Again use HUMINT, OSINT, SIGINT, MASINT, and GEOINT to assess. Be specific about their capabilities (marginally capable, capable, or highly capable).
