10 Best Intelligence Agencies in the World

"I just finished reading a new book on the history of Area 51 - the super secret American military base located in Nevada. The book is titled "Area 51 - An Uncensored History of America's Top Secret Military Base" by Annie Jacobsen. Ms. Jacobsen manages to uncover never before released facts about the little understood, secret goings on at Area 51. There are enough secret projects talked about in the book to do five or six lists. It's amazing what scientists, engineers, the military, and intelligence agencies will do when they have unlimited budgets, little to no accountability, and everything they do is kept top secret. And remember, these are the projects we know of (or think we know of). Imagine what goes on at Area 51 that we do not know, and probably never will know. "
