Summary

This quote highlights a concern regarding the composition of Iraq's intelligence apparatus. It states that most individuals in this field, who possess valuable knowledge and expertise, are Sunni Arabs. The significance of this lies in the fact that it increases the risk of infiltration by the insurgency. As members of a different sect, Sunni Arabs may potentially have conflicting loyalties or sympathies, making it easier for the insurgency to gain access to classified information or influence intelligence operations. Therefore, the quote stresses the need for careful consideration and measures to mitigate this vulnerability.
