More on National Intelligence Council
Description from Wikipedia:
The National Intelligence Council (NIC) is the center for midterm and long-term strategic thinking within the United States Intelligence Community (IC). It was formed in 1979. According to its official website:
* It leads the IC's effort to produce National Intelligence Estimates and other documents;
* It supports (and reports to) the Director of National Intelligence;
* It serves as a focal point for policymaker's questions;
* It contributes to the effort to allocate IC resources in response to policy changes; and
* It communicates with experts in academia and the private sector to broaden the IC's perspective;
The NIC's goal is to provide policymakers with the best information: unvarnished, unbiased and without regard to whether the analytic judgments conform to current U.S. policy.
One of the NICs most important analytical projects is a Global Briefing. Prepared every four years between Election Day and Inauguration Day, the Global Briefing assesses critical drivers and scenarios for future global outcomes approximatey fifteen years out. The Global Briefing provides a basis for long-range strategic policy assessment for the White House and the intelligence community. The NIC's most recent Global Briefing, "Global Trends 2025: A Transformed World" was released in November, 2008.
On February 2, 2007, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, and the National Intelligence Council released the Iraq National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) - "Prospects for Iraq's Stability: A Challenging Road Ahead" Unclassified Key Judgments.
