The Directorate of Intelligence (DI), established in 2005, is a key component of the FBI’s National Security Branch and manages all Bureau intelligence activities.

 

“With regards to intelligence, we’re not doing anything today that we didn’t do before 9/11, but it wasn’t systematic then, and now it is,” said Dina Corsi, a senior manager in the DI and a veteran analyst who specialized in counterterrorism work.

 

Prior to 9/11, Corsi said, “IAs could always do what was needed, but there was no system-wide program across the FBI as there is now, with formal training, standardized intelligence products, and clear-cut career paths for analysts. In those days,” she recalled, “the efforts of IAs, while considerable, existed in pockets.”

 

Now, with the entire intelligence analyst program administered under the DI, all areas of the Bureau can leverage intelligence resources, and those resources can be used much more broadly and efficiently to connect programs and investigations. That helps agents in the field and underscores the value and importance of IAs throughout the FBI.

 

“The scope and topic of particular intelligence needs may be different for agents in Portland and in Miami,” Corsi explained, “but now the process and the training are the same, which makes information that much more accessible and analysis more consistent across the organization.”

Still more astonishing, the CIA chose not to inform FBI investigators once they knew, by summer 2001, that Hamzi and Mihdhar had entered the United States. The FBI had an intelligence liaison with the CIA's "Alec Station" devoted to hunting bin Laden, but "the wall" still stood in the way. Even though another FBI analyst, Dina Corsi, was made aware of the information, she wasn't allowed to share it with the criminal investigators in her own agency.

By late August 2001, it did reach one of them, an FBI agent working with Soufan named Steve Bongardt – when an urgent e-mail from Corsi was accidentally copied to him. Bongardt, one of several FBI sources Wright interviewed, called Corsi on the phone, incredulous. "Dina, you got to be kidding me! Mihdhar is in the country?" Following orders from on high, Corsi told him he had to delete the e-mail.

 

The next day, in a phone call with Corsi and a CIA supervisor from Alec Station, Bongardt was again told to "stand down" from any effort to track Mihdhar. Bongardt insisted that the intelligence should be shared, and that the wall was a misguided bureaucratic construction that was hurting the agents' mission. "If this guy's in the country, it's not because he's going to fucking Disneyland!" he said. In a follow-up e-mail to Corsi, he said, "someday somebody will die – and wall or not, the public will not understand why we were not more effective."

 

Wright reports that several of his FBI sources strongly believed that the CIA shut them out because the CIA was interested in recruiting Mihdhar and Hamzi, having never been able to penetrate al-Qaida with an agent. If the FBI collared the two as terrorist suspects, the opportunity to recruit them as agents would have been lost to the more transparent criminal investigative process. The nearly 3,000 lives lost on 9/11, Wright suggests, was the net result of the CIA's strategy..
