Description

The strategy, drawn up by the Office of National Drug Control Policy, calls for wide-ranging improvements to intelligence gathering and analysis that can be used by law enforcement units.

"Agencies should consider deploying additional intelligence analysts from headquarters-type roles into frontline operational organizations to facilitate the linking of intelligence to operations," the report said.

"Law enforcement customers in the counternarcotics and homeland security communities need 'actionable' intelligence. Greater emphasis must be placed on ensuring that intelligence products contain valid operational links or leads."

The report noted that in coming years, "the focus of these intelligence programs will be on improving and integrating the flow of timely and relevant intelligence and analysis."

The strategy comes amid fears that Mexico's bloody drug war may spill over the border and terrorists could use drug routes to carry out an attack on the United States.

"The routes and methods of existing smuggling organizations could potentially be utilized to transport terrorists or weapons of terror across the border," the 77-page report warns.
