Intelligence Advanced Analytics (IAA), the Christiansburg based intelligence agency and think tank has tapped former Afghan Police Officer and Female Tactical Platoon (FTP) member Azizgul Ahmadi to be its new Legal Analyst.
Ahmadi worked alongside U.S. Special Forces in Afghanistan and completed international police training at the Turkish National Police Training Center. IAA says Ahmadi will primarily be working with the think tank but will also assist in select security operations. Ahmadi will help rolling out a new Preventing and Countering Violent Extremism (PCVE) program utilizing American football for the Balkan states and Ukraine on the new unsports.org peacebuilding platform. IAA holds a strategic partnership with the United Nations Office of Counter Terrorism (UNOCT) Global Sports Program.
“I am grateful to serve and protect again,” said Ahmadi. “Humanitarian work is very rewarding and this opportunity lets me promote gender equality with the UN. I have been studying English very hard at New River Community College and now I get to work with the U.S. intelligence community again. My goal is to empower all women and girls in Afghanistan.”
IAA Founder and Director Cameron D. Dickerson serves as Liaison officer from CIA to UNOCT. He’s also the former Chairman of the Progressive National Committee and the Libertarian Congressional Candidate for VA-09. He’s urging Congress to take a nonpartisan approach in passing the Afghan Adjustment Act, which is currently being stalled by Republicans. The legislation, S.2327/H.R.4627, would expedite the ability to give permanent residence status to Afghan evacuees like Ahmadi and her FTP comrades who aided the United States in the occupation of Afghanistan.
Dickerson issued a statement on his new teammate.
“IAA builds relationships to promote unity and sportsmanship because the joy of sport is the ultimate peacebuilding solution. Azizgul Ahmadi brings a new perspective of objectivity that allows myself and IAA to operate with greater efficiency under 50 U.S.C. 3515, 22 U.S.C. 2348, and 10 U.S.C. 431. I hope Azizgul’s tenacity, resilience, and dedication will inspire all people. She’s giving Afghan women a voice to be heard in Afghanistan and across the globe, countering the Taliban’s latest oppressive efforts. It’s going to be a delight having her on the team.”
Dickerson says diversity and equality are critical to ensuring the success of IAA and UNOCT missions. He is committed to providing greater transparency with sports and PCVE program, along with open sourcing intelligence when acceptable.
