# 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.

Dear Don:
It is good hearing from you. I've sent you a copy of our World Cup post
tournament assessment, so any comments you have are appreciated. I'm glad
the tournament went pretty well.
We're on the lookout too for post-tournament protests, but I'm not so sure
if it'll happen. I'm thinking they'll be taking a breather for a bit now.
There was definitely a push to agitate prior to the tournament, to use it
for leverage to get those 10% raises. Now there isn't that kind of
leverage available. But I'm sure it won't be too long before another round
of protests start up.
As for other fires, we're looking into Al Shabaab as a transnational
threat, as well as what neighboring countries, notably Ethiopia, Kenya and
Uganda, may mobilize to counter AS. Each neighbor has their own issues and
constraints, and a response may not be uniform, but we're looking at what
they may do. Do you see these Somali neighbors becoming more direct and
proactive, to use the Kenyan foreign minister's words?
A couple other high profile issues we're monitoring: Angola, its regional
assertiveness, its relations with South Africa, its desire to expand its
economy and economic influence but at the same time keeping it under very
tight central political control
Lastly is Nigeria, militancy in the Niger Delta (though right now it's
pretty quiet) as well as horse-trading ahead of national elections.
Whether President Jonathan will run again, and what northerners may do
about that. Does Jonathan have enough influence in the Niger Delta to keep
his political opponents from stirring things up there against him? If
Jonathan proceeds, do northerners go along with it, or do they fight back
somehow.
I'm not sure if those issues are within your area, but if so I'd love any
comments you'd have on them.
Thanks for keeping in touch.
My best,
--Mark

Hello Mark,
Yes, big sigh of relief that the cup ended without any major incidents,
outside of the Kampala bombings during the final match.
Not sure if you are aware, but my area of responsibility covers half of
the continent of Africa (nearly all of Sub-Saharan Africa, short of the
Western region). So never lacking for items of concern.
We actually had a person that went to South Africa for the World Cup,
and she returned just today. I asked her what her thoughts are on the
potential for South Africa. She seemed pretty upbeat on the current
situation in South Africa.
My thoughts are that the next 3 to 4 months are crucial from an
international perspective on what takes place in the country post-World
Cup. Will we see a return to xenophobic attacks? Will we now see the
violent service delivery protests that were effectively squelched
through the duration of the tournament? And something I found
interesting, was a piece on the economics of the country and the 0.4 to
0.5% bump to their GDP that they received from the event. I wish I had
the source of that information for you now, but unfortunately I don't,
but the gist of the report was that the public workers (if I recall
correctly) were demanding a pay increase in the 10-11% range, that if
granted, would effectively wipe out any gains to the economy that they
received from the World Cup.
I would love to read your post-tournament wrap-up analysis piece. After
I read through it, would be happy to share my thoughts on it as well.
Thanks for your email Mark. I'll also return the question to you. What
is your next fire on the continent that you are turning your attention
to? Perhaps I could share some thoughts with you on those issues.
Respectfully,
Don Dumler

Subject: keeping in touch from STRATFOR
How are you? I hope you're getting a nice breather now that the World
Cup is over. The games seem to have gone well with no big disruption. No
major security incidents to note. The SA government seems pretty hushed
up about a possible radioactive device sale in Pretoria last Friday, but
not much was reported on it, and in any case, nothing transpired to
impact the World Cup.
I was just wondering your post-tournament thoughts. We published a wrap
up analysis and I'd be pleased to send it to you if you are interested.
Now that you're done with the WC, what's next on your plate?
My best,
--Mark
