Who is Behind Regime Change? “Revolution Business” NGO Supported by Wall Street and US Intelligence | Global Research

Serbia’s Srdja Popovic is known by many as a leading architect of regime changes in
Eastern Europe and elsewhere since the late-1990s, and as one of the
co-founders of Otpor!, the U.S.-funded Serbian activist group which
overthrew Slobodan Milošević in 2000.

Lesser known, an exclusive Occupy.com investigation reveals that Popovic and the Otpor! offshoot CANVAS (Centre
for Applied Nonviolent Action and Strategies) have also maintained
close ties with a Goldman Sachs executive and the private intelligence
firm Stratfor (Strategic Forecasting, Inc.), as well as the U.S. government. Popovic’s wife also worked at Stratfor for a year.

These revelations come in the aftermath of thousands of new emails released by Wikileaks’ “Global Intelligence Files.” The
emails reveal Popovic worked closely with Stratfor, an Austin,
Texas-based private firm that gathers intelligence on geopolitical
events and activists for clients ranging
from the American Petroleum Institute and Archer Daniels Midland to Dow
Chemical, Duke Energy, Northrop Grumman, Intel and Coca-Cola.

Referred to in emails under the moniker “SR501,” Popovic
was first approached by Stratfor in 2007 to give a lecture in the
firm’s office about events transpiring in Eastern Europe, according to a
Stratfor source who asked to remain confidential for this story.
