To me this is an example of the apocalypse, or unveiling, that is occurring on a large scale right now. This is all over the place out there by now, but this article describes the recent (well, today) release of the "Stratfor Confidential Emails". Some may be interested.

WikiLeaks: Stratfor Confidential Emails Published

* Stratfor has been likened to a shadow CIA
* Company defiant, says it will not be cowed
* "Anonymous" hacker group helped obtain data
* Stratfor says some emails may be forged, altered

LONDON, Feb 27 (Reuters) - The anti-secrecy group WikiLeaks began publishing on Monday more than five million emails from a U.S.-based global security analysis company that has been likened to a shadow CIA.

The emails, snatched by hackers, could unmask sensitive sources and throw light on the murky world of intelligence-gathering by the company known as Stratfor, which counts Fortune 500 companies among its subscribers.

Stratfor in a statement shortly after midnight EST (0500 GMT) said the release of its stolen emails was an attempt to silence and intimidate it.

It said it would not be cowed under the leadership of George Friedman, Stratfor's founder and chief executive officer. It said Friedman had not resigned as CEO, contrary to a bogus email circulating on the Internet.

Some of the emails being published "may be forged or altered to include inaccuracies; some may be authentic," the company statement said.

"We will not validate either. Nor will we explain the thinking that went into them. Having had our property stolen, we will not be victimized twice by submitting to questioning about them," the statement said.

WikiLeaks did not say how it had acquired access to the vast haul of internal and external correspondence of the Austin, Texas company, formally known as Strategic Forecasting Inc.
