Mark Kennedy sought advice from STRATFOR

... | 18.11.2013 23:07 | Policing | Repression

One of many STRATFOR emails published by Wikileaks shows former spycop Mark Kennedy making enquiries.

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 Sir, STRATFOR has in the past been a reliable research resource for
me in my role as a covert officer for British Special Branch. Now that
that role has finished I am looking to channel my expertise regarding
domestic extremism and political activism from across Europe and the
USA. I have expert knowledge in the use of social media for the purposes
of intelligence gathering and have an in depth understanding of the
trends and influences of activism on a domestic and international level
having infiltrated many groups throughout eight years of international
deployment. With your experience in the field of Strategic Forecasting
are you able to advise as to how my skills and expertise may now be
applied and whether your summer analysts course might be something I
should consider?
Kind Regards
Mark Kennedy UK +44 7411-286652 US 216-526-1774

Kenned first to lie on a job application?

WTF are you on about, a fake post! It's from Wikileaks and is as genuine as can be. He obviously was just using a bit of artisitc license for his job hunting, and anyway, NPOIU did report to Special Branch, so it's not such a massive leap. Not that this being made public makes any difference to anything anyway!

Why does this subject bring out the nutters so well?!

Seriously, thanks for that, it's amazing you know how I spend my political time and that's it's wasted. FFS, be a bit more sensible and less mental please. And like I said, someone (not me) had posted this for interest, I suspect it doesn't make any difference to anything anyone is doing politically.

You do know the Mark Kennedy at Thales is not the same Mark Kennedy as we're talking about right? FFS, the level of research and intelligence on here is tragic.

"There are already a lot of questions about the so called leaks from the ' The Global Intelligence Files ' with many activists now questioning if they are real. It seems likely they were dumped in Wikileaks in an attempt to discredit the site in the same way that Forbes was used to screw up what were thought to be FBI files."

Bullshit:

1. This email is listed on wikileaks website as part of the stratfor leak.
2. Jeremy Hammond is on record as having leaked the stratfor files - having already been hung out to dry by an informer he's completely upfront about having done it.
3. I trust JH more than I trust some anonymous crank commenter on the net. The guy is in jail right now and is a bloody hero.

aaaaa-non


thanks for post
