# 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.

Uttar Pradesh Political Parties Wooing Upper Caste Leaders Ahead of Polls
Report by Atiq Khan: "U.P. Political Parties Wooing Brahmin Vote Bank" -
The Hindu Online
Saturday November 12, 2011 12:08:33 GMT
Lucknow: Any thoughts of Ms. Mayawati having abandoned her "social
engineering" formula (Dalits plus Brahmins) after coming to power in 2007
can be dispelled now with the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister scheduled to
preside over two functions this weekend aimed at wooing the Brahmins for
her electoral cause.
The UP Assembly polls are scheduled in February next.
This Saturday, Ms. Mayawati will inaugurate the 'Uttar Pradesh Viklang
Uddhar Dr. Shakuntala Mishra University' at Mohan, about 30 km from here.
The university for physically impaired has been named after the mother of
the ruling Bahujan Samaj Party's 'Brahmin face' and Rajya Sabha MP, Satish
Chandra Mishra.
Of even greater importance to the BSP's electoral cause is the Brahmin
sammelan (gathering) to be held here this Sunday under the aegis of
'Brahmin Bhaichara (brotherhood) Samiti'.
The meeting will be addressed by the Chief Minister. It is supposedly
being organised to 'resurrect' Mr. Mishra after a fairly long stint on the
political sidelines.
Interestingly, the 'bhaichara samitis' of different caste groups had been
dissolved by Ms. Mayawati . But now with the Assembly polls round the
corner, they are likely to be revived.
Notwithstanding the fact that it was essentially the anti-Mulayam Singh
vote which propelled her to power in May 2007, the 'social engineering'
experiment was a key factor in ensuring Ms. Mayawati's success though she
later continued to espouse the cause of the Dalits, the core support base
of the BSP.
Though given the ornamental post of UP Advisory Council Chairm an (the
post has since been abolished), Mr. Mishra was gradually sidelined from
the political affairs of the party. Ms. Mayawati herself had announced a
couple of years back that Mr. Mishra -- a former Advocate-General -- would
concentrate on the party's legal matters.
Realising the worth of the Brahmin vote, the other parties, too, have not
wasted time in projecting Brahmin leaders.
While the chairman of the Bharatiya Janata Party's election campaign
committee, Kalraj Mishra, is leading the second phase of the party's 'Jan
Swabhiman Yatra', the Congress high command continues to repose 'faith' in
Rita Bahuguna Joshi, a Brahmin, as the president of Uttar Pradesh Congress
Committee. Ms. Joshi has even been given nominated for the Lucknow
Cantonment Assembly constituency.
