Synopsis

This book offers user friendly lists of Arabic English intelligence terms with brief definitions, organised in thematic sections. In an era of globalised intelligence collection, analysis, sharing, training, and liaison, precise translations of terms specific to the intelligence industry are critical. Such translations are often difficult, if not impossible, to find absent a human translator with significant knowledge of the intelligence industry in both languages. Intelligence Arabic seeks to fill this translation gap by offering an extensive list of terminology specific to the intelligence industry in English and Arabic, searchable in both languages. It presents a comprehensive list of over 1000 intelligence terms searchable in Arabic and English, with brief definitions. It includes common acronyms often found in intelligence reports, manuals and training course materials. Terms are ordered alphabetically in English within each section; an Arabic index eases the search for terms in this language. The 7 sections cover general terms; analysis; operations; human intelligence: signals intelligence counterintelligence; and acronyms. The online audio materials and elearning flashcards aid learning and help self assessment.
