With CIFA closed down last week, a NEW Pentagon spy shop was opened to replace it!

The CIFA (CounterIntelligence Field Activity office) was the notorious office that was tied into the Duke Cunningham/MZM/Dusty Foggo/Brent Wilkes scandals, and was shown to have spied on anti-war protests, etc. and built a database of this info. It also had its two head David Burtt and Joseph Hefferon simultaneously both resign back almost exactly two years for unexplained reasons.

CIFA Closes, Pentagon Opens New Spy Shop

Back in April, Antifascist Calling reported on the proposed shut-down of the Pentagon's controversial Counterintelligence Field Activity (CIFA) office that illegally spied on the antiwar movement.

That office was officially "disestablished" August 4 by the Department of Defense (DoD). Simultaneously, it "activated" the Defense Counterintelligence and Human Intelligence Center (DCHC) "under the direction of the Defense Intelligence Agency."

DCHC will "combine CIFA resources and responsibilities with longstanding DIA CI and HUMINT capabilities." DCHC director Army Maj. Gen. Theodore Nicholas says that "the realignment of CIFA's functions and resources into DIA strengthens the close historical and operational relationship between counterintelligence and HUMINT."

According to the Associated Press, DIA's new office will engage in what it calls "offensive counterintelligence" to identify what terrorist operatives or foreign intelligence officers are up to and thwart their activities.
