# The Global Intelligence Files

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Keep in mind that the final Winograd report is to be released in July, and
that's going to be much, much worse. Kadima knows Olmert is bad news, but
they have to also counter a Bibi alternative
Bibi is leading the polls -- In a separate question on who they would vote
for, the poll found that 26% of Israelis believe that Likud chairman
Binyamin Netanyahu should be prime minister, followed by Foreign Minister
Tzipi Livni (9%), former prime minister Ehud Barak (6%), Labor MK Ami Ayalon
(5%), Vice Premier Shimon Peres (4%), Israel Beiteinu leader Avigdor
Lieberman (3%), billionaire Arkadi Gaydamak (2%) and Peretz (1%). Olmert
received zero percent in the poll, Channel 2 said.
Also, Netanyahu has set up a special team of Russian-speaking advisers to
prepare to compete for Russian votes in the next election.
The team, which meets every few weeks, includes Benny Briskin, who served as
an adviser to Netanyahu while he was prime minister. It also includes Dr.
Zeev Hanin, a sociologist from Bar-Ilan University, Dr. Alex Feldman, an
expert on opinion polls, and Likud spokesman Dmitry Shimelfarb.

Its like american politics. Hillary can say its her. Doesn't mean shit until
she has it. Its like consulting the fbi on who the next president will be.
They know what's in the papers.
This stuff is all over the israeli papers. No secret that bibi seems to have
it except that he's as loved as hillary. But olmert is finished.

BiBi (protect) has said that Olmert is "finished" Thursday.
In looking at my notes, there may be an interim short term replacement,
however, it looks like BiBi is the one that wants the job very badly. He
said, "it's mine, I've shored up Likud. Thank you Fred for your support of
Israel..."
I don't know Izzy politics as to others who may be the short term fix.

So to clarify, Bibi is implying that Olmert has privately indicated that
he's resigning on Thursday?

The reason you're hearing he's going out thursdya is b/c that's the day the
massive opposition political protests are planned. They're trying to get
everyone committed to the idea that Olmert needs to be kicked out now. I
don't think Olmert's gonna last long, but he's not going to duck out that
quickly

That's open but there is no one except bibi to take over. Perez is finished.
Peres is too old. And barak is even less liked than bibi.

Subject: Humint - Israel and Syria
From an Israeli source who spoke to Netenyahu today:
BiBi believes he can unseat Olmert and there is a movement underway to do
so.
Source also advises the IDF cannot protect the Golan and the IDF believes
the Syrians are making plans to take it.
