What is the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)?

in #defense3 years ago

"DIA's mission is to provide intelligence on foreign militaries and their operating environments so the United States and its allies can prevent and decisively win wars. We serve everyone from the president to the soldier in combat through a combination of expert analysis, intelligence gathering, and cutting-edge science and technology"

"DIA fulfills a unique role at the intersection of the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community. Warfighters, policymakers and acquisition leaders rely on us for foundational intelligence on foreign militaries and the operating environment that only we provide. Today, our role is more vital than ever as the re-emergence of strategic competition challenges U.S. prosperity, security and the democratic world order we have fought to sustain since World War II."

"Our competitors have studied and learned from the American way of war. They are building asymmetric capabilities that seek to diminish our longstanding military dominance in all warfighting domains — land, maritime, air, space and cyber."

"There are growing reports that a senior communist Chinese intelligence official has defected to the United States and is collaborating with my old outfit, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)."

"Because of this, sources reportedly told RedState that: “This defector has the rest of the intelligence community and the LEO [Law Enforcement Officer] community scared sh**less.”"

"Anonymous sources are also reporting that members of the federal law enforcement community (i.e. FBI) are “scared s**tless” about Dong’s information."

"Dong Jingwei is a name that both the Biden administration and China will not soon forget. He is the highest level Chinese defector in the history of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party). And we have him. Or rather, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) has him—somewhere"

"RedState’s sources say that’s partially true. FBI Director Christopher Wray was “ambushed” with the information, they say, and Langley was also unaware. Sources say DIA leadership kept the defector within their Clandestine Services network to prevent Langley and the State Department from accessing the person, whose existence was kept from other agencies because DIA leadership believes there are Chinese spies or sources inside the FBI, CIA, and several other federal agencies."

"FBI Director Christopher Wray was reportedly blind-sided by information that a “high-ranking” Chinese defector to the U.S. with knowledge of the nation’s bioweapons was recently obtained by the Defense Intelligence Agency and kept hidden from the agency for three months."

"The answer may lie in the fact that the Defense Intelligence Agency has for months been debriefing a high-level Chinese Communist Party defector — but withheld the information from other agencies until recently because of fears that those agencies are compromised."
