A bid to tackle global terrorism by Britain’s secret spy agency
July 14, 2008
Britain’s secret spy agency, known for employing famous male 007 Bonds, is on the lookout for women and minorities in a bid to tackle global terrorism. In response more than 20,000 applicants were received, largely as a result of open recruitment campaign.
As per the declaration from M16’s website, even disabled applicants are welcome. “Women, who are fluent in Mandarin, Arabic, Persian, and the Afghan languages of Dari and Pashto, are the need of the hour.” Speaking on conditions of anonymity, M16’s head said: “The key challenge is the terrorist threat. Government agencies have to show they’re making positive efforts (to diversify) but for us it means much more.”
In 2005, in Britain 52 rush-hour commuters succumbed to terrorist suicide attacks. British law enforcement agency is engaged in watching 21,000 people and 200 plots allegedly having links with Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, Iran and Somali.
One of the M16’s ads pronounces: “There are three strangers in the room that you need to get on your side. How do you get them to warm to you? Could you be operational officer?”
