# 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.

## FOR MEX WEEKLY Fwd: FROM MX1: on CDJ

Released on 2012-08-19 05:00 GMT

From MX1, could be useful for your weekly.
I took out some stuff at the top that was about the social strategy in
Juarez. Please read to the end, he gets into the issues that are really
central then.
Also, note that La Reforma had a very prominent oped about Mex joining
NATO that MX1 said was not ignored or laughed at by the people in the
govt.
If you have any further questions or need my help in any way, please call
any time this weekend.
Begin forwarded message:
On another point, a report came out stating that over 60 of the
municipal cops that were fired from CDJ because of their corruption
have been killed or arrested since they were let go. As I recall,
CISEN was suppose dto keep tabs on them in order to infiltrate some
cartel heads or cells. However, CISEN has recognized that 1) they
never had the necesarry resources to do that and 2) When the
strategy changed to focus on the local drug market, all assets were
taken off tailing of the former cops.
Yet another interesting development: Rumors say that two very high
ranking business leaders in CDJ directly told the Interior Minister
that they wanted the government to strike a deal with the cartels.
They said that it was the only way to do it, and curiously also
mentioned that their companies had come to agreements with the
cartels and were doing well as a result. This is a very bad thing.
When major business leaders are giving in to cartel demands, they
pave the way for failure of the governement strategy. The effects
of their decisions cannot be underestimated, considering CDJ's
status as one of the world's maquiladora capitals. If cartels can
shape the way businesses of that magnitude operate, then government
is unlikely to find cooperation there. The same rumor said that
the Interior Minister told the private sector leaders that if they
really wanted to help CDJ, they needed to give people jobs rather
than help the cartels to move drugs across the border and hide
behind corporate lines.
Drug wise, here is the latest: we are finding more and more big
shipments that seemed destined to go right through ports of entry.
We are talking about major tons of cocaine and weed seized in some
cases right on the internaitonal bridge, on the Mexican side.
There is no question that CBP officers were in on it, particularly
given the very overt nature of these shipments. However, there are
directives from Mexico City that are preventing our people from
sharing that information because the Americans have been clear that
they would handle that aspect on their own, and we should not
interfere with what may already be an open investigation on the US
side.
The big deal right now with the drugs is the use of trains. The
cartels have been able to track exactly which cars go where and
they are being very effective at getting those drugs into the US.
Seizures in Mexico are up, but JTF and FBI are working with rail
police to figure out exactly how it is that the cartels are able to
show up at the right place at the right time to take shipments of
drugs from under the cars of various trains.
Finally, the important observation: We are effectively at the
start of a paradigm shift regarding sovereignty and how we see
cooperation with the US. When the General in charge of all
military education said that Mexico could not do this alone and
that US military and LE assistance was needed, no one shot him
down. He was told by the Minister of Defense to say what he did.
Everyone in the high levels of government is starting to recognize
that more US involvement is necesarry. In the mid-levels, it
sounds more like a crazed cry for help. I just spoke to a PF
subcommander who said "We dont need them to tell us what to do, we
need them to come help us do it. If they say they can take
responsibility, then let's see how they react when they are in the
field like we are".
The statement was very much reminiscent of what Mexicans are
starting to believe about the American war on drugs in the US: that
it is a simulated war. Nothing is being done about demand, and it
had always pissed us off. More importantly, no talk is ever made
of the "American cartel", and even worse, while Mexico City radio
stations are banned from playing "narcorridos", hispanic stations
in the US play them all the time. Just the other day, the first
thing I heard in the morning was a narcorrido praising two drug
traffickers from Albuquerque. The song went on to describe where
they sell, what they wear, what they like to eat, the streets they
control, and their agreements with state and local LE that they are
untouchable. This kind of thing makes me just a little
uncomfortable. That, of course, if just my own take on it. People
are dying in MX and not in the US, and people have a hard time
understanding why.
