Intelligence - Part 1

Things have come to the level where one wished that one did not know too much of anything. Sometimes, ignorance is as good a shield as intelligence is. The reason that some people do not understand how dangerous information is when in the wrong hands, and to bear those information would somehow become an unwanted burden. The need to be on guard at all times to our own human basic natures of sharing. The whole social circle is a not much difference from a world political scene as individuals representing different countries. Each man or woman have their economy status, political stability(in this case i denote it as emotional state), state secrets, their press conferences( as in public knowledge of something), failures, successes, their defence and offenses (psycologically). Like most other countries in the world, these do not contain sofisticated intelligence gathering systems.

What is 'intelligence'?

Some may think that i've been reading too many Tom Clancy books of late that i've been confusing reality with fiction. Yet, what is produced here is just a amplication of human conduct by using larger examples. As we know that each human creation is partly develope from our own internal human structures and systems. So does how we govern nations as well as form stuctural systems.

Back to the question. Intelligence is information valued for its currency and relevance rather than its detail or accuracy. Intelligence gathering is a way to answer questions or obtain advance warning of events and movements deemed to be important or otherwise relevant. (wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_%28information_gathering%29) Or in other words , a form of self survival. As the chinese saying goes, "to know yourself and your enemy well, is to win the war already."
