These intelligence gatherers are so arrogantly sure of themselves, their sources and their analysis of deeply complex and shifting geo-political realities that it's a wonder they make a profit off of the information they sell. Anyone on this list would do a better job at sifting information for sale to corporations, the government and universities.
I always thought that Stratfor was mostly BS and hype, and what I've seen of these doesn't really change my opinion. There's a lot of heavy breathing over these "revelations," but what's there, really?
