The good of the homeland and money. You're essentially being paid to do two jobs. Go work for a good salary in a foreign country, and then collect a good salary from your intelligence agency. Hell if you're targeting the US, why not do it? The worst that can happen to you is that you'll be deported and go back home to work a great job within the government.
