Strategic intelligence has probably not enjoyed the electronic and systems advances that we see in tactical intelligence today. There are a whole lot of languages and branches of languages that would be hugely difficult to cover entirely (note comment about Fukinese translators - one variety of Chinese and unintelligible to several other Chinese dialects).
In addition, on the strategic side the system is probably still geared to dumping stuff into a hopper and waiting for it to come out the other end, to be processed into a report for consideration next year, or the next. A lot of what may appear immediate and tactical today was considered in terms of longer range policy - or would have had to be verified up, down, and cross-ways before anyone would go arm waving into the boss' office lest they be punished for over-reacting.
All that even before the PC wonders of our recent administration and various congresses.
Then there is the sad fact that the FBI is made up of lawyers and accountants, not the gnarley crime (or terror) fighters you might see on TV.
