# 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.

Betreff: Question about German Policy Towards Iran
Dear Dr. Kaim,
I am an analyst with STRATFOR, U.S. intelligence-based media company
(www.stratfor.com). I am also a friend and former student of Dr. Stefan
Gaenzle who was my professor at the Institute for European Studies at
the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. I emailed
Stefan asking him if he could point me to someone who followed German
foreign politics closely and who could help me answer a few questions
about Germany's policy towards Iran.
I hope that I would not be bothering you if I did in fact ask a few
questions. I am interested particularly in the apparent shift in tone of
Chancellor Merkel two days ago, when she said that Iran's "time is up".
This was, as you know, subsequently followed by Tehran's announcement
that two German diplomats were arrested during the December Ashura
protests. My questions, in no particular order are:
-- Is there in fact a shift in German policy towards sanctions, or was
the more strict tone more reflective of the pressure from the visiting
Israeli delegation?
-- Are CDU and FDP on the same page when it comes to Iranian sanctions?
-- If there is a shift in Germany's stance on the sanctions, how would
you characterize the reasons for it?
All of these questions are completely off the record. We write our
analyses as intelligence briefs and never cite sources, although in this
case I really just need some background information on this issue.
Stefan sends his best regards and I thank you in advance for any time
you may find to spare.
All the best,
Marko
