Olympics 2012: Julian Assange, WikiLeaks expose Coca-Cola

London, Feb 28: After Dow Chemicals, Coca-Cola became the latest victim when the whistle-blower WikiLeaks led by Julian Assange exposed their secret deal with US based firm Startfor.

The latest revelations of the WikiLeaks show how Coca-Cola paid Stratfor to gauge the protesters who protested against its (Coca-Cola) sponsorship for the upcoming Olympics 2012 which has been scheduled to be held in London.

Earlier on Monday, Feb 27 the website shows how officials of Dow Chemicals along with Startfor have been keeping an eye (read spying) on an activist working on Bhopal gas tragedy.

WikiLeaks' revelation might be proved as a fatal for Dow as it has already faced enough criticism over sponsoring during upcoming Olympics 2012. However, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) has appreciated Indian Olympic Association's (IOA) concern for the victims of 1984 Bhopal tragedy, but maintained that Dow Chemicals had no ownership stakes in Union Carbide till 2000.

Here it can be recalled that WikiLeaks claimed that they soon will expose several confidential deals of Stratfor with many large corporations such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co. and Lockheed Martin and government agencies. WikiLeaks also informed that they have proofs of Stratfor's links with US department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defense Intelligence Agency.
