From NavySEALs.com: The Joint Services Detachment (JSD) of the South Carolina Military Department (SCMD) has established a Counterterrorism Advisory Team, a 10-plus member council composed of nationally recognized military, counterterrorism, and intelligence experts responsible for providing information to - and briefing - the JSD, and through JSD disseminating information to the broader S.C. Military Dept. The information used and the analysis presented in the briefings is public – based on open sources – and pertains to terrorism and terrorist threats to the state and nation. The team - whose experts include retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely (a former FOX News military analyst), Dr. Walid Phares (a senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies), two retired CIA operations officers, and one retired FBI special agent for counterintelligence - is somewhat unique among military and paramilitary organizations, though there are groups like the Lower Manhattan Counter-Terrorism Advisory Team, a multi-agency team which includes among others the New York Police Department. While other Counter Terror organizations have lost effectiveness by having been infiltrated - or influenced at best - by members of the Muslim Brotherhood, that is clearly not the case with S.C.'s team.
