# 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.

This was reportedly the deputy head though, not just a regular
intelligence officer.=C2=A0 I imagine he would usually travel with at
least a small crew.

Russian intelligence official dies in Syria during "swimming tragedy"
and there are no details on it?! It's like they're admitting that he was
murdered...

(NewsCore) - The deputy head of Russia's powerfu=
l military
intelligence agency died mysteriously in a swimming accident, Russian
media reported Saturday.
"Several days ago, General Yuri Ivanov died while swimming," official
news agency RIA Novosti quoted a military source as saying.
The report did not give any further details on the circumstances of
the death, or the location.
Ivanov was deputy head of the GRU, the overseas intelligence gathering
arm of the Russian military.
Daily Kommersant reported that the 52-year-old had died "tragically,"
wording that was repeated in an obituary in defense ministry newspaper
Red Star, which also failed to provide any details.
During the Soviet era the GRU was considered a rival to the KGB, the
secret service, now known as the Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR).

Body of Russian diplomat found on Turkish coast*

Fishermen found the body of the Russian diplomat on the Mediterranean
coast of Turkey. Most likely the Russian diplomat drowned while on
vacation in Syria.
He arrived in Syria as a tourist and entered the country with
diplomatic passport. He is not the officer of Russian Embassy in
Syria, spokesman for the Embassy Andrey Zaytsev told RIA Novosti.
Earlier media spread information on death of Russian diplomat Yuri
Ivanov whose body was found by fishermen on the coast of Cevlik in the
border province of Hatay five days ago.
Officials said they managed to identify the body with the assistance
of both domestic and international authorities, Hurriyet Daily News
reported.
