The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) used to be known as the U.S. foreign-sponsored counterpart to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Not so much. The CIA holds an estimated 20,000 employees worldwide and the FBI, over 36,000. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), on the other hand, is hiring several thousands of spies to send out overseas. It eventually plans on being larger than the CIA.
The priorities of the DIA are to "oversee weapons transfers between North Korea and Iran, help modernize the military in China, and Islamist militant groups in Africa (Libya)." The DIA has employees in both the military and civilian sectors, but the DIA is sending a select group of double-agents to "collect" from overseas campaigns. With covert U.S. agents, the recipe is to destabilize foreign governments just as we see the "rebels" doing in Libya and supervising "enemy" affairs. It isn't like Iran isn't going to see this news piece, so the tensions between North Korea, Iran, Israel, China, and the United States will escalate in the foreseeable future.
