# 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.

Subject: Re: [Eurasia] TASKING - Secessionism in Europe
The Front de liberation nationale corse (groups that say they are FLNC) is
still pretty active. There are still many bomb attacks every year in
Corsica.Politically, the separatists are also organized and have political
parties. I'll work on this one.

Ok, and you can be in charge of that one.
I was thinking about it, but thought that they've been pretty quiet
since the 1970s.
Elodie Dabbagh wrote:
Maybe we should add Corsica to the list. There is definitely a
secessionist movement there, even if the separatists have been pretty
quiet recently.

Ok, good call...
Am re-sending the list with yours and Lauren's points.
Eugene Chausovsky wrote:
Can we include Nagorno Karabakh in this as well? I think this
would be good for Elodie to take, since she is responsible for
Armenia/Azerbaijan in morning digests anyway.
I can take Abkhazia and South Ossetia, even though they have
already seceded (possible stage V, as in completed?), but there
is still violence there.

Tasking on Secessionism in Europe:
We need to assess via OS (which is why I am cc-ing monitors
and watchofficers to this tasking) and via our sources the
state of affairs of secessionist regions in Europe.
There are four levels of secessionism as per weekly
intelligence guidance
(http://www.stratfor.com/node/167894/analysis/20100725_intelligence_guidance_week_july_25_2010):
I. Quietly Simmering a** Yes, secessionism is an idea, but
the region has no interest in pursuing it.
II. Simmering, but weak a** Secessionism is more than an
idea a** if not the outright stated goal -- it is a desire,
but the region has no means in pursuing it.
III. Active, but not explosive a** Secessionism is the
stated goal, but there is very little danger of violent
uprising.
IV. Active a** Secessionism is the stated goal and violence
is potential means by which the country will pursue it.
(the last two levels are really distinguished only by the
factor of violence)
Methodologically, we need five things:
1. Response to the ICJ Kosovo ruling. So for example the
commentary by EP VP Laszlo Tokes (Hungarian from Romania)
today would be something we are looking for. Same with
Dodika**s comments. Leta**s put all those together. Leta**s
really search for any comments made by all the regions since
the opinion was issued, and leta**s have the monitors increase
their sensitivity to any comments (even if theya**re from a
place like Northern Ireland) from this point forward.
2. An assessment of foreign backing for the region in
question. So for places like South Ossetia and Abkhazia, this
is obvious. What about Republika Srpska and the Albanians in
Macedonia?
3. Popular support for secession. This becomes especially
important in Western Europe. So leta**s look at polling data
as well.
4. An assessment of the leadership (political and/or
military) of the territorya**s secessionism.
5. Tasking sources in the region on how they perceive the
ICJ decision and who is next.
Breakdown of regions (plus who I want to get cracking at the
information for the region):
Level I
Italy a** Aosta Valley -- BENJAMIN
Croatia a** Serbian Krajina a** MARKO
Denmark a** Faroe Islands a** BENJAMIN
Spain a** Galicia a** ELODIE
U.K. a** Northern Ireland a** BENJAMIN
Ukraine a** Crimea a** MARKO
Serbia a** Vojvodina a** MARKO

Italy a** Lombardy a** BENJAMIN
Bosnia a** Western Herzegovina a** MARKO
Denmark a** Greenland a** BENJAMIN
Finland/Sweden/Norway a** Sami-land a** ELODIE
Spain a** Basque Country a** ELODIE
Ukraine a** Carpathian Ruthenia a** MARKO
Serbia a** Sandzak a** MARKO
Level III

My placement of regions in the categories is just my
analytical guidance. We can update them as we find more about
the current situation. Please get in touch with me if it is
unclear what needs to be done.
