Who is more secretive? CIA or NSA?
148701
The California Insect Association and the North Saratoga Anglers are both quite secretive. Most people are unaware of the existence of either.

CIA works internationally as well as nationally, it  also has a broader jurisdiction. FBI only works nationally and is more focused on specific people, where as CIA works on the organisations. i think CIA is mroe important

There's this little news story now,  it takes a large chunk of time on national news and print and tv,  remember its the thing about Bush authorizing the NSA to listen to cell phone calls.\n\nSo able danger ended with some admiral or general saying we were told not to pursue what we had cause some white house clinton lawyer told us not to go any farther,\nand now george bush's lawyer, the attorney general, is saying its legal for us to spy and take action\n\nkick @ss

The CIA is the offspring of the OSS. After WWII, the commandos that worked with partisans, were split into two groups: CIA; handling foreign espionage, and Airborne Rangers; conducting combat operations. Special Forces work the gray area in between.\n\nThe FBI was set up to fight gangsters, and other professional criminals that worked nationwide, during the depression. It is just as covert as the CIA.\n\nThe two work a lot like MI5 and MI6, in England.\n\nWhich one of you two ladies is foreign, and which is domestic?

CIA is one of the major organisations controlled by the illuminati. They are responsible for much of the terrorism of this world

Both, I think.  There is significant evidence that our government spies knew a great deal about OBL, and there is apparently also some evidence that his operations have, at times in the past at least, been financed by American money.  So I wonder if he isn't a real terrorist conveniently manipulated by the US Government to have an excuse to put in place the draconian "homeland security" measures to take away our privacy.\n\nThe problem I have with these "emergency" measures is that once the government has the data on individual citizens it seeks, then even if the laws are later declared unconstitutional, the data and the pathways to collect it is still there.  And I am "paranoid" enough to fear Big Brother (or in American, it has become Big Sister) more even than I do Arab terrorists.

I believe the Government ..Keeps "LOTS" of Secrets.         The Alien Topic @ Area 51 is just One of them.(Could be thousands of Secrets  ya know!) ..Because If there are No Aliens or Proof Them , Then "WHY" is it a Restricted Area? Besides, We shouldn't be so Self Centered in Our Thinking. To Believe that We are the Only Life Force around.

I don't think it's possible to truly know that, without knowing about everything the government has been or is involved in, which would probably threaten "national security" and, more importantly to them, cost some politicians their jobs, and possibly their freedom, if all was revealed to us.

Well, if you were in a "need to know" position you wouldn't be asking this question. So, with that said...NUNYA...that would be None ya business!!! In the military, we call that OPSEC....or Operational Security for you civilians. We train in secrecy so the bad guys don't know what's coming. So, if any of you idiots out there are thinking of answering this question...remember it deals with Nation Security.

They are a combination of both. They are some nosy knuckleheads warrantlessly spying on US Citizens in the name of National Security. Or that is what they want people to believe anyway.

The myth is the Israeli diplomatic corp.  It depends on what you would call intelligence.  Electronic eavesdropping/weather reports/fog of war/code breaking and the like would probably belong to the NSA.  For human intelligence it would actually be the Chinese.  They seem to easily find people that would betray their country and the FBI is full of Chinese moles.  The KGB was also a master of human intelligence.
