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.

Senior Obama advisor comes to Iran: Report

Unconfirmed reports suggest that Vali Reza Nasr, a senior Obama

administration advisor on Iran, has come to the Iranian capital of Tehran.



A new report suggests that Iranian parliament speaker Ali Larijani and

former parliament speaker Gholam-Ali Haddad-Adel may be behind the visit.



"President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was informed well after Nasr entered the

country," Tabnak reported on Wednesday.



Nasr, who was appointed as a senior advisor to Richard Holbrooke -- the

special US envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan --, is the son of renowned

Islamic philosopher and historian of science, Seyyed Hossein Nasr.



Tabnak, which is believed to have sources close to officials in Tehran,

suggested the unannounced trip by the US official to be linked to the

recent release of Iranian-American journalist Roxana Saberi.



The website claimed that Saberi's appeals court had been postponed due to

the fact that Nasr's visit had not yet been confirmed.



There has been no official confirmation of whether Nasr is, in fact, in

Tehran.

Saberi, 32, is a freelance journalist who was initially detained in late

January after she continued her work in Iran after her press credentials

had expired.



She was later sentenced to eight years in prison on charges of spying for

the government of the United States.



After a Tehran court of appeals reviewed her case, her jail sentence was

reduced to a two-year suspended term and she was released from Iran's Evin

house of detention.



Press TV contacted officials close to the case and learned that the

suspended sentence will be automatically abolished if Saberi shows no

unlawful conduct in the next five years.
