# 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.

they already have heavy sanctions on Syria. this is making it sound like

on Bashar

Subject: Re: G2 - SYRIA/US - Statement by President Obama on the
Situation in Syria
aside from the rhetoric, this is what Obama has decided to do on Syria:
As a part of that effort, my Administration is announcing unprecedented
sanctions to deepen the financial isolation of the Assad regime and
further disrupt its ability to finance a campaign of violence against the
Syrian people.A* I have signed a new Executive Order requiring the
immediate freeze of all assets of the Government of Syria subject to U.S.
jurisdiction and prohibiting U.S. persons from engaging in any transaction
involving the Government of Syria.A* This E.O. also bans U.S. imports of
Syrian-origin petroleum or petroleum products; prohibits U.S. persons from
having any dealings in or related to SyriaA-c-a*NOTa*-c-s petroleum or
petroleum products; and prohibits U.S. persons from operating or investing
in Syria. We expect todayA-c-a*NOTa*-c-s actions to be amplified by
others.A*

Office of the Press Secretary
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 18, 2011
A*
Statement by President Obama on the Situation in Syria
A*
The United States has been inspired by the Syrian peoplesA-c-a*NOTa*-c-
pursuit of a peaceful transition to democracy. They have braved
ferocious brutality at the hands of their government. They have spoken
with their peaceful marches, their silent shaming of the Syrian regime,
and their courageous persistence in the face of brutality A-c-a*NOTa**
day after day, week after week. The Syrian government has responded with
a sustained onslaught. I strongly condemn this brutality, including the
disgraceful attacks on Syrian civilians in cities like Hama and Deir al
Zour, and the arrests of opposition figures who have been denied justice
and subjected to torture at the hands of the regime. These violations of
the universal rights of the Syrian people have revealed to Syria, the
region, and the world the Assad governmentA-c-a*NOTa*-c-s flagrant
disrespect for the dignity of the Syrian people.
A*
The United States opposes the use of violence against peaceful
protesters in Syria, and we support the universal rights of the Syrian
people. We have imposed sanctions on President Assad and his
government.A* The European Union has imposed sanctions as well.A* We
helped lead an effort at the UN Security Council to condemn
SyriaA-c-a*NOTa*-c-s actions. We have coordinated closely with allies
and partners from the region and around the world. The Assad government
has now been condemned by countries in all parts of the globe, and can
look only to Iran for support for its brutal and unjust crackdown.
A*
The future of Syria must be determined by its people, but President
Bashar al-Assad is standing in their way. His calls for dialogue and
reform have rung hollow while he is imprisoning, torturing, and
slaughtering his own people.A* We have consistently said that President
Assad must lead a democratic transition or get out of the way. A* He has
not led. A* For the sake of the Syrian people, the time has come for
President Assad to step aside.
A*
The United States cannot and will not impose this transition upon Syria.
It is up to the Syrian people to choose their own leaders, and we have
heard their strong desire that there not be foreign intervention in
their movement. What the United States will support is an effort to
bring about a Syria that is democratic, just, and inclusive for all
Syrians. We will support this outcome by pressuring President Assad to
get out of the way of this transition, and standing up for the universal
rights of the Syrian people along with others in the international
community.
A*
As a part of that effort, my Administration is announcing unprecedented
sanctions to deepen the financial isolation of the Assad regime and
further disrupt its ability to finance a campaign of violence against
the Syrian people.A* I have signed a new Executive Order requiring the
immediate freeze of all assets of the Government of Syria subject to
U.S. jurisdiction and prohibiting U.S. persons from engaging in any
transaction involving the Government of Syria.A* This E.O. also bans
U.S. imports of Syrian-origin petroleum or petroleum products; prohibits
U.S. persons from having any dealings in or related to
SyriaA-c-a*NOTa*-c-s petroleum or petroleum products; and prohibits U.S.
persons from operating or investing in Syria. We expect
todayA-c-a*NOTa*-c-s actions to be amplified by others.A*
A*
We recognize that it will take time for the Syrian people to achieve the
justice they deserve. There will be more struggle and sacrifice. It is
clear that President Assad believes that he can silence the voices of
his people by resorting to the repressive tactics of the past. But he is
wrong. As we have learned these last several months, sometimes the way
things have been is not the way that they will be. It is time for the
Syrian people to determine their own destiny, and we will continue to
stand firmly on their side.
