A rather necessary skill in the intelligence community is the understanding
of foreign languages.  It is rare that english speaking countries conduct
intelligence on other english speaking countries.  It does happen, but it is
comparitively rare.  Usually your work will be against nations that have very
foreign foreign languages.  Farsi, Arabic, Russian, and Spanish are useful
languages.  Farsi and Arabic because of the Muslim terrorists.  Russia
because they give aid to terrorist nations.  Spanish because there are a
large number of latin american nations going the Socialist/Communist way of
government, that is against the free world.

Languages are great to know also because when you retire from the IC you can
still get a job as an interpreter who does call-taking, one-on-one
interpretation, and interpretation of people in the lecture circuit.  You
could also teach "TEACHING ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE" in foreign nations
where you get paid very well for your teaching skills.  Knowing other
languages can get you good job security, both in and out of the intelligence
community.
