Ridenour,
Ron. Backfire: The CIA's Biggest Burn. Havana, Cuba: Jose Marti Publishing House, 1991.
Surveillant 1.6 calls this a "truly gripping exposé of the 26 Cubans and one Italian who infiltrated CIA operations in Cuba on behalf of Cuban State Security. They surfaced voluntarily in unison in 1987 to the embarrassment of the CIA. Provides testimonies and background reports on how CIA ran operations in Cuba (tells how each operation was misled or subverted)."
Also on the same subject, see: Miguel A. Lopez Escobar, Objetivo Langley: Veintiseis Mas Uno (Havana, Cuba: Editorial Capitan San Luis, 1989). This is described by Surveillant 1.6 as the "testimony, in Spanish, of the agents of the Cuban Security Service who infiltrated various CIA operations in Cuba."

Rieber, Steven. "Intelligence Analysis and Judgmental Calibration." International Journal of Intelligence and Counterintelligence 17, no. 1 (Spring 2004): 97-112.
"[R]esearch indicates that experts tend to be quite inept at assigning even roughly correct probabilities to their predictions. At the same time, promising techniques for improving calibration, in some cases very rapidly, do exist. How well these techniques will work in the realm of intelligence analysis is unknown."

Rieber, Steven, and Neil Thomason. "Toward Improving Intelligence Analysis: Creation of a National Institute for Analytic Methods." Studies in Intelligence 49, no. 4 (2005): 71-77.
The authors argue that "systematic research" is needed to improve analytic practices. They would stimulate such research through establishment of a National Institute for Analytic Methods along the lines of the National Institute of Health.

"By rushing into Iraq instead of finishing off the hunt for Osama bin Laden, Washington has unwittingly helped its enemies: al Qaeda has more bases, more partners, and more followers today than it did on the eve of 9/11. Now the group is working to set up networks in the Middle East and Africa.... Washington must focus on attacking al Qaeda's leaders and ideas and altering the local conditions in which they thrive."

Rielage, Dale [LCDR/USN] "Before the Green Table." Naval Intelligence Professionals Quarterly 19, no. 4 (Dec. 2003): 10-11.
The author identifies what he views as significant structural problems in the way Navy terrorism and foreign intelligence analysis are configured. He argues against the current separation of the Navy's "key provider of terrorist threat warning, counter-intelligence, and force protection information [the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS)] from both its foreign intelligence structure and its operational forces."

The author looks at SOE's difficulties in World War II, and concludes that "the root of SOE's difficulties was its lack of coordination with the British espionage and counterintelligence services. At the end of the war, the responsibility for covert operations was returned to the jurisdiction of MI6.
