"The seventh and final trend ", is what bothers me the most. Right up there with "to be smarter, more agile, more responsive to the policymakers we serve". Now if one didn't read the article, what context does that quote imply?
So after reading the entire speech, I just had to share. It is pre 9/11, blatent proof of foresight if I have ever seen it.

There was a note of concern of terrorism to be sure, but thats hardly proof of foreknowledge.

"Terrorism and weapons-of-mass-destruction programs will, to some degree, reflect such disaffection and pose threats to American citizens, soldiers, territory, allies, and global interests...Little guys with less-than-state-of-the-art weapons will be able to do us harm! "
"In 15 years, CIA will still be focused on the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, terrorism, narcotics, and organized crime."
"Several regional powers in Asia and the Middle East�North Korea, India, Pakistan, Iran, and Iraq��will continue to pursue regional agendas that collide with US interests. All these states are developing weapons of mass destruction and long- or medium-range ballistic missiles.
Such weapons will enable regional powers to do three things they otherwise might not be able to do against the United States:
try to deter the United States by threatening to significantly damage an urban center of one of our allies;
attempt to constrain US policy and military operations in a given region; and
try to cause direct harm to the US homeland."
Along with seven other quotes in the article, that mention "terrorism", the above should appease you.
Besides this forum is about the NWO, not about terrorism, that would be another forum. Sorry if the "pre 9/11" bit threw you off, but I found it a little bit odd, the CIA had a "NWO" agenda.
