The leaders in this area are the British. They have a really terrific tradition of intelligence studies, beginning with Chris Andrew and now Richard Aldrich. When I go to intelligence studies conventions, there are always an incredible number of very capable British academics. The Israelis are obviously also very interested in this, and even the French. I feel that we [the Americans] are behind the British. There are many places in the U.S. where they do not even want to touch the stuff. I think the problem for Europe and especially Germany given its responsibilities in the modern world, is that it needs to not only have a strong intelligence service, but academic study of it as well because it&#8217;s so important in the formulation\u00a0of policy. You&#8217;ve got a long way to go, Siegfried!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/pardeeschool\/profile\/joseph-wippl\/\">Wippl<\/a><span>\u00a0is a former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officer.
