The FBI is currently and has been at the top of the game of finding, tracking, and conviticting terrorists. They are currently our best asset we have against terrorists actions in the USA and even around the world. Contrary to what most believe the FBI works around the world. They work with british intelligence and many other intelligence communities. In simple terms they have proven that their motto "Fidelity, Bravery, Integrity" is not just words they do excellent work and have been leading the fight against terrorism. The efforts of the CIA are great as far as some field intelligence but they are best at observation via satellite and spy planes and drones and a few other techniques. I am a airplane nut so I love CIA, but if you want to actualy make a big difference I recommend the FBI.
If you speak arabic, dari or southeast asian or other languages they really need translators most. But FBI needs a lot of good people and they have proven to have the best intelligence of Al Qaeda and other terorist groups . - Ian bach

Life as an FBI Language Analyst
For Samir, the decision to jump in 2004 from a successful career as a senior analyst at a financial services company to a new line of work at the FBI was easy. The Bureau was looking for Arabic linguists and Samir, who grew up in the Sudan and is fluent in both Arabic and Tigrinya, a language spoken in the East African country of Eritrea, was looking for more career fulfillment.
The FBI honors and celebrates Asian Pacific Heritage Month.
