I don't know who Global Security are, but they've lifted
entire passages from the USGS, the Pacific Tsunami Warning
Center, and US AID (and maybe other sources) without
attribution. See, for example:

http://neic.usgs.gov/neis/bulletin/neic_slav_ts.html
http://www.prh.noaa.gov/ptwc/wmsg
http://www.usaid.gov/locations/asia_near_east/tsunami/

Since those pages are from U.S. government agencies, they
are probably not copyrighted, but it's still way tacky to
use their text without crediting it.

Do you know who John Pike is?

For that matter, their "About" page with contact info, mission
statement, etc. is readily accessible right from their home page.

And no, just FYI, there generally is no copyright violation for using
unclassified material from any U.S. government source without
attribution.

True, but acknowledging your sources is usually considered good
practice.
