This makes me sick to the stomach. I was in India when the Mumbai carnage took place. My classmate from IIT was killed the same day at the very same spot [1].

And here we have this class of a bitch thinking of making a "lot of money" off a probable war ['caged match' look at the audacity!]. No wonder they say karma is broken all over the place. On another story these same corrupt assholes have abused their power to send a whistle blower to jail and serve a 10 years term [2].
Nice going, keep it up newage SS!

- refurb 13y agoHow is this any different than the "Scud Stud" Peter Kent making his career of the Iraq War? Or a defense lawyer becoming famous because he got a murder case dismissed on a technicality? Sure, it's pretty crappy, tasteless behavior, but lets not go overboard here.
- jeswin 13y agoRelax, they are more like a news company. If you checked the emails of CNN, Fox, or even BBC you might find similar stuff. All news companies, including Indian TV channels love bad news. Stratfor is nowhere close to holding the kind of power you are imagining.
- COMS 13y agoOn the ground human intelligence is power. And Barron's called Stratfor "the shadow CIA". I have limited experience in this but I've seen some egregious things with current intelligence employees and private contractors. I think you are underestimating outside ways these guys could profit and/or use their intelligence collection news company to encourage those profits.
