to the Serbs." The Guardian, 9 Mar. 2000. [http://www.newsunlimited.co.uk]
According to a BBC program to be broadcast on 12 March 2000, the U.S. report "says Belgrade's secret source [of information on the Kosovo air campaign] was human and was not the result of hacking into NATO's coded computer system.... The secret U.S. report is understood to give no indication of how a NATO spy could have passed information to Belgrade. Nor does it speculate about his nationality."

"Cold War and Covert Action: The United States and Syria 1945-1958."
Middle East Journal 44, no. 1 (Winter 1990): 51-75.
In line with the claims of Miles Copeland, this article concludes that Zaim's 30 March 1949 coup in Syria was the work of the CIA. Little speculates that the final approval for the coup was given during the visit to Damascus in March of Assistant Secretary of State George McGhee.
Rathmell, "Copeland and Za'im," I&NS 11.1/fn. 26, notes that Little's comments "are purely speculative and, on current evidence, cannot be supported." Certainly, there is nothing in McGhee's own account of his visit that would link him to the coup. See George McGhee, Envoy to the Middle East (New York: Harper & Row, 1983).

Little, Robert. "NSA Methods Lag in Age of Terror." Baltimore Sun, 9 Dec. 2004. [http://www.baltimoresun.com]
According to analysts, "[t]he code-breaking and 'signals intelligence' work that the NSA does best -- rooted in complex mathematics and linguistic dexterity -- will never go out of style as long as nation-based threats such as North Korea and Iran exist.... But it is far less vital against an enemy that sleeps in caves and cellars, and communicates in whispers."

"How the CIA took the Dalai Lama's disciples under its wing is one of the most exotic episodes in the annals of Western intelligence. The intimate details of Operation STCIRCUS are only just now emerging," but Newsweek has learned that the operations of the Tibetan guerrillas "scored spectacular intelligence coups including ... early hints that China was developing the atomic bomb."

"Plotting for the strikes against the World Trade Center and the Pentagon was initially centered in Germany. Three of the four killer aircraft pilots -- including the apparent ringleader Mohamed Atta -- lived for as long as nine years in the port city of Hamburg, where they studied at technical colleges and constituted an al Qaeda 'sleeper' cell. During their long stay, none of them was spotted by German intelligence."
