how muslim are you?
this blog post was inspired by my time working with HUMINT sources over the course of my career. establishing motivation was one of the biggest things I worked on analyzing each source’s online footprint and corroborating it with psychologists who performed psyche evaluations on sources to determine- ultimately- motivation. why was the source motivated to work with the US government? were they loyal, or prone to bribes or potential double agenting? it was an ironic process as I tried to dissect- essentially- a bunch of men who resembled my own father.
