The anti-DEI foolishness impacts our national security.

[IM2]

Think about this. The U.S. Government decides to begin covert actions in Africa and the Middle East, who are they going to use to embed themselves in the population to get the proper intel? A white man? The anti DEI foolishness impacts our national security.

Trump’s anti-DEI efforts damage national security, former officials say​

The rollback of diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives weakens intelligence operations, erodes workforce morale and limits the U.S. government’s ability to navigate global threats, former national security officials argue.​

“Historic cultural affinity groups are really important inside the agencies and other organizations. As humans … it helps us develop security, one-on-one, of being able to talk and associate with like-minded people,” Zaid said.

He said those groups are especially important for agents working on a non-official cover basis — used to describe operatives who work undercover without official ties to their government — meaning that they have especially intensive jobs with highly classified markings whose details can’t even be shared with close family or a therapist.

A homogenous national security workforce would severely hamper U.S. intelligence operations in several other ways, the former officials said. In the field, spies would struggle to blend into diverse populations, compromising their ability to gather crucial information. Recruiting or retaining linguists with native-level fluency in nuanced languages like Russian or Chinese — often cultivated in specific cultural contexts and family settings — would become a major obstacle, these people add.

So you are saying a black man couldn’t do that job unless he was hired strictly due to his skin color.

Weird.

It sounds like you're saying that insisting on the best people for the job weakens the performance of that job. Do we have that correct?

We didn't.

What you insist on saying is that only whites are the best people for the job.

Face reality, white man, there ain't going to be a pasty white man who is capable of embedding himself in a group of African terrorists. Nor will a white man be able to embed himself in the Taliban, ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hamas or any other similar organization.

Wow, what an idiot.

 

[IM2]

And look at the idiots who disagree. Somehow, they think a white man can embed himself in a group of African warlords and get the information from them necessary to stop them from committing acts of terror. Or that the all mighty white man can just enter into Middle Eastern terrorist cells and fool them into giving away plans to commit terrorist acts.

I don't, never have and never will. Feel free to quote where I have if you think different.

Face reality, white man, there ain't going to be a pasty white man who is capable of embedding himself in a group of African terrorists. Nor will a white man be able to embed himself in the Taliban, ISIS, Al Qaeda, Hamas or any other similar organization.

And by the same token there ain't going to be a black man capable of embedding himself in the KKK or a bunch of white supremacists. Put the best man on the job.

Who said anything like that? Quote them.

What ever happened to DEI? Wouldn't we want to be inclusive by allowing a white person to be able to do the same job as only a black person could do?

 

[Stryder50]

Who said anything like that? Quote them.

Only "IM2" has leaped to the conclusion that only a "white man" will be recruited for the job.

Seems he doesn't know that there are many racial and ethnic persons employed in US Intel Agencies, based on their skill levels.
And women. Why does it have to be a man unless someone is sexist ????

Also, our Intel Agencies (we have at least a bakers dozen of such) often recruit locals to work with.

Many areas of Africa and especially Middle East have Caucasian predominate inhabitants. Some might be a bit 'tan', but Caucasian is broad category for "whites".

I Spy​

I Spy is an American secret-agent adventure television series that ran for three seasons on NBC from September 15, 1965, to April 15, 1968, and teamed American intelligence agents Kelly Robinson (Robert Culp) and Alexander "Scotty" Scott (Bill Cosby), traveling undercover as international "tennis bums." Robinson poses as an amateur with Scott as his trainer, playing against wealthy opponents in return for food and lodging. Their work involved chasing villains, spies, and beautiful women.

Nobody is afraid of African warlords.
