# 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.

It was meant as Athens' perception. Note that I say it is politically
untenable for EU to do so.

If Athens does not take this seriously, and instead waits until Brussels
is forced to bail it out, the EU could find itself having to bail
Portugal as well. This will quickly become politically untenable for the
big EU economies Germany and France who are facing difficult economic
situations at home. The onus is therefore on stopping the bleeding in
Greece by showing investors that the EU has enough clout to force its
member states to fix their fiscal policies through persuasion alone.
Remember our conversation with George when he brought up the point that
the EU could also let Greece default and then put big resources behind
the next domino when the markets inevitably tested it? I thought that
was a valid scenario. Why do we assume that Brussels will be "forced"
to bail Greece out?

Speaking at the sidelines of the Davos annual meeting in Switzerland
the EU Monetary Affairs Commissioner, Joaquin Almunia said in an
interview to Bloomberg on Jan. 29 that the EU policymakers had no
"plan B" to help Greece. Almunia said that "Greece will not default.
In the euro area, default does not exist." Almunia also called
newspaper reports about a possible euro bailout of Greece as
"sensationalist". Rumors, however, continued to swirl with U.K.
newspaper Financial Times citing unnamed EU officials as preparing
for a possible Greek bailout. While there are certainly contingency
plans that the EU has to be discussing in the light of declining
demand for Greek government bonds, which is now also trickling down
to demand for Greek corporate bonds as well, a bailout of Greece is
not in the short-term plans of the EU. The EU wants Greece to fix
its own problems and implement a detailed, credible and painful
budget austerity plan, much as Ireland did in December. If Athens
does not take this seriously, and instead waits until Brussels is
forced to bail it out, the EU could find itself having to bail
Portugal as well. This will quickly become politically untenable for
the big EU economies Germany and France who are facing difficult
economic situations at home. The onus is therefore on stopping the
bleeding in Greece by showing investors that the EU has enough clout
