CNN - 根據與數十名現任和前任情報、軍事和國會官員的對話,美國官員和立法者一致認為,以色列未能預測哈馬斯從加沙發起的襲擊主要是由於缺乏想象力。
Based on the talk with current and past officers of intelligent , military and parliament, US officers and policymakers agreed unanimously that Israel failed to predict Hamas's attack in Gaza due to a lack of imagination.
I found this news fascinating. I knew imagination is a catalyst for arts such as writing stories, songs, poems, designing fashions and architecture, etc., but I never thought it's also critical for intelligence work. A lack of it in intelligence analysis could be so deadly.
我覺得這條新聞非常有意思。我知道想象力對於寫故事,寫歌,寫詩歌,設計時裝和建築這類藝術性的東西很有促進作用。但我從沒想到想象力對情報工作也這麽重要。缺乏想象力在情報分析中可以是致命的缺點。
