Thread: Australian has abandoned me: Assange

Aust government will assist Assange
Thursday, May 31, 2012

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will receive the same assistance from the federal government that any other Australian is entitled to, Communications Minister Stephen Conroy has said.

Britain's Supreme Court has ordered Assange be extradited to Sweden to answer allegations of sexual assault.

The 40-year-old was not in court to hear the decision handed down by the seven justices in London on Wednesday.

Senator Conroy said that if he was extradited to Sweden the government would continue to assist him.

'We have provided and will continue to provide all the regular consular assistance that any Australian that gets into trouble anywhere in the world will be entitled to,' Senator Conroy said on the Nine Network.

Lawyers for the WikiLeaks founder still want the matter revisited.

While the 40-year-old Australian was stuck in London traffic en route to the hearing, a courtroom packed with global media heard from Lord Phillips on Wednesday as he recounted the findings .

The journalist later saw his girlfriend and Assange walking hand in hand, and claimed that when he challenged the WikiLeaks founder, ‘he dropped into a classic fighter’s pose, with his fists up’.
He said: ‘Assange seemed to take pleasure in humiliating me.’ The writer slept alone that night.

Poor bugger. Didn't have the courage to fight for his root. No wonder she dumped him for Assange.

And had to sleep alone that night. Oh, the humiliation he must have suffered knowing that his girl probably had Assanges cock in her mouth while he lay alone in his bed.

This story just keeps getting even better.

Got to give Assange credit on this. If the journalist had any balls to speak of, he would have back handed his "GF" for flirting with other guys.

Get back to Sweden and face the law - Julian likes lawful openess, and being such an open guy he (let all and sundry know my voting preferences, phone no. adress), i certainly will enjoy the day when this egoistic cock gets on that plane and fucks off out of the UK.
Juilan, if you are innocent of raping 2 ladies then good, face the judge.

I just told Julian Assange i had a shit so he could get it, he so interested in all of us.

Ecuador's foreign minister has revealed that that WikiLeaks chief Julian Assange has taken refuge in the South American nation's embassy in London and is seeking political asylum.
Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino said Ecuador is weighing the request.

Wikileaks' Julian Assange seeks asylum in Ecuador embassy

Mr Assange is facing extradition to Sweden from Britain for questioning over alleged sex crimes

Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is seeking political asylum at Ecuador's London embassy, the country's foreign minister has said.
"Ecuador is studying and analysing the request," Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino told reporters in Quito.
Last week the UK's Supreme Court dismissed Mr Assange's bid to reopen an appeal against extradition to Sweden over alleged sex crimes he denies.
The Foreign Office says it will work with Ecuador to resolve the situation.
Mr Assange could still take his case against extradition to the ECHR and has until 28 June to make the move, or extradition proceedings will begin.
Swedish prosecutors want to question him over allegations of rape and sexual assault made by two female former Wikileaks volunteers in mid-2010 but have not filed any charges.
Mr Assange, whose Wikileaks website has published a mass of leaked diplomatic cables that embarrassed several governments and international businesses, claims the sex was consensual.
'Minimum guarantees'
In a statement , Ecuador's embassy said he had arrived there on Tuesday afternoon to seek asylum.
"As a signatory to the United Nations Universal Declaration for Human Rights, with an obligation to review all applications for asylum, we have immediately passed his application on to the relevant department in Quito," it said.
"While the department assesses Mr Assange's application, Mr Assange will remain at the embassy, under the protection of the Ecuadorean government."
It said the decision to consider the bid for asylum "should in no way be interpreted as the government of Ecuador interfering in the judicial processes of either the United Kingdom or Sweden."
Ecuador's Foreign Minister Ricardo Patino said Mr Assange had claimed he was being persecuted
Mr Assange issued a statement, saying he was "grateful to the Ecuadorean ambassador and the government of Ecuador for considering my application".
Associated Press quoted Mr Patino as telling reporters Mr Assange had written to Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa saying he was being persecuted.
Mr Patino said the Australian had claimed "the authorities in his country" would not "defend his minimum guarantees in front of any government".
Mr Assange said he would not be protected from being extradited to "a foreign country that applies the death penalty for the crime of espionage and sedition," Mr Patino said.
The Foreign Office said the UK had now been officially informed by the authorities in Ecuador that Julian Assange was seeking asylum.
Since he was now in the embassy of Ecuador, he was "on diplomatic territory and beyond the reach of the police," a spokesman said.
The anti-secrecy campaigner fears extradition to Sweden may lead to him being sent to the US to face separate charges relating to Wikileaks, for which he could face the death penalty.
Swedish assurance But Swedish authorities have said the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) would intervene if Mr Assange was to face the prospect of "inhuman or degrading treatment or an unfair trial" in the US.
Mr Assange was on £200,000 bail which was provided by several high-profile supporters including socialite Jemima Khan and Ken Loach, who each offered £20,000 as surety.
Ms Khan said on Twitter that she had expected him to face the allegations, adding, "I am as surprised as anyone by this".
Vaughan Smith, a friend who allowed Mr Assange to stay at his Norfolk home until December 2011, told the BBC he was surprised by the move but understood why he may have decided to seek asylum.
"There's been an organised campaign to undermine him," Mr Smith said. "And he believed that if he was sent to Sweden he would be sent to America."
Wikileaks has posted an alert on its Twitter feed: "ALERT: Julian Assange has requested political asylum and is under the protection of the Ecuadorian embassy in London."
It said Ecuador had offered asylum as early as November 2010.
Ecuador's deputy foreign minister said in 2010 his country was offering Mr Assange residency because it wanted to give him the opportunity to freely present the information he had.
However, President Rafael Correa subsequently dismissed the idea, which he said neither he nor Mr Patino had approved.


BBC News - Wikileaks' Julian Assange seeks asylum in Ecuador embassy




What a pathetic wimp of a man showing his true traitor colors, and how incredible naive and stupid are the British justice system, what a clusterfuck, when the final decision about extradition is made, it is standard procedure in many smarter foreign Justice systems with - immediate arrest and revoke of any bail, because of flight risk, it really gives itself no rocket science required to figure that one out

I suppose things do get watered down when your laws have to provide refuge heaven for criminal scum and tax-dodgers from all over the world, the ridiculous pretense of having to check the validity of more developed and refined justice-systems is a must to avoid having to hand over blatant refugees from justice in other countries.

Well done "Little Britain" at least this is just another hilarious episode , better getting the fun in before sharia courts take over, they don't have a sense of humor.

He thinks he is above all laws in all countries, the poof needs to go and face justice and if he is innocent of sex crimes then he will walk free and hopefully fuck off back to Australia and not burden us British with all his appeals and whinges.
I see he has his own show on the Russian tv. network RT and spouting his anti - western bile, Quelle surprise there then.

so Lars will the Swedes extradite him to the US ?

Has it completely missed you that this is a politically motivated charge?

And that even if innocent of crimes in Sweden he could, and most likely would be extradited to the US of Oppression ?

I'm no fan of Assange, but jeeze, dont hold back Lars, must be nice living in a black and white world.

How do you know it is politically motivated ?, are you saying the 2 Swedish women entrapped him ? and if so where is your source ?.
Not surprised you gave us your opinion on this issue though.

As was pointed out in another report on this, even if Ecuador grants him political asylum he is stuck at the Embassy forever (or until Sweden gives up). The diplomatic immunity is only when he is within the embassy grounds and does not include a trip to the airport.

There are no charges at this time. The Swedes want him to tell them his side of the story and if he indeed did stick in one woman without a condom while she was asleep and then stuck it another a week later without a condom after telling her there was nobody else. Amazingly that appears to a crime in Sweden. I have heard the Swedes take truthfulness in sexual relationship very seriously and don’t take lying about it very well (has Tiger Woods found out).

The being extradited to the US is a red herring. He doesn’t want to have to admit he is a lying fuck without a shred of personal ethics.

Really don't matter what has motivated the charges from the Swedish women, what matters is that Assange ran before the Swedish Police got a chance to ask him for his side of the story, if you run they will and should of-cause try to get you back I hope you agree on this Willy, I am sure you do not think that possible rapists should be allowed to get away no matter what else they do with their time, if Assange is innocent then no problem and he will be allowed to walk.

But Assanges actions so far is not to smart, if you run it is an indication of possible guilt, the lengths he has gone too to avoid just an interview with Swedish Police would in any other case make people suspicious of the man's sincerity, he has repeatedly claimed innocence and his lawyers say they have a sure fire secure case,.... so what the fuck is the problem ??

Assange has to follow the law just like any other citizen, no special favors or preferential treatment, that is just the way it is, if he was sincere and with his demands for transparency (except in wikileaks) he himself should support law applied fairly to everyone no matter who you are right!!

And the fabled extradition to the US actually requires the US to make an extradition request, which they so far haven't, so this is all a fantasy with no hold in reality, we can not take any position as to something that has not happened.

If they at some stage do, rest assured the Swedes will look very carefully on it and make sure it complies with the requirements for law, evidence and the human rights conventions they have signed on too, it is impossible at this stage with no extradition request and no charges from the US to even contemplate what would be the right thing for the Swedes to do.

And anyway if he is also innocent of any wrongdoing according to US law that should pose no problem either.. right! but then again if he is a criminal guilty of crimes he should go to prison, I assume all will agree on that one.

22) In early November, Assange was given permission to leave the country by the courts. He goes to the UK to work on the Cablegate release.

Rapist ? Really. Nice one lardy.

BBC News - Swedish rape warrant for Wikileaks' Assange cancelled

Ran from the law ? Really. Nice one lardy.

On 15th September 2010
, the prosecutor informed the Appellant’s counsel that he was free to leave Sweden.

Not politically motivated ? Really. Nice one lardy.

he arrest warrant was canceled on August 21 2010 by one of Stockholm's chief prosecutors, Eva Finne, and re-opened by Swedish Director of Prosecution Marianne Ny on 1 September 2010.

Oh, and the US have not yet applied for an extradition, well, they wouldnt advertise it, would they, then the UK wouldnt be able to send him. I'm glad you have so much faith in the US government, I mean, it's not like that have a history of capturing people in other countries, torturing them, extra judicial killings, heck the US does not even participate in invading countries for oil and $$, do they ?

Look, I'm no fan of the guy, but to say this is an ordinary case and an ordinary guy and to assume the US will not interfere and/or file for extradition is naive in the extreme.

Agreed.

There are so many cases of women crying wolf and taking a false accusation quite far, permanently tainting a man's reputation.

The US regime has repeatedly demonstrated itself to be spiteful enough to stoop to any level to "win". They are not stupid, and understand that in order to defeat not just Assange and Wikileaks, but the concept of leaking information, that they must win the battle of hearts and minds by defaming and destroying the reputation of a figurehead for this process, so as to poison the well.

Once they succeed in bribing an idiot woman to scream rape successfully, and twist the arms of superficially liberal democracies over whatever political/business deal they can dig up, by promising her whatever, then they will have successfully constructed a meme that they can use to stalk future similarly impertinent figures, with innuendo about their supposedly sinister motives.

It should be clear to anyone that merely attacking and dragging him through court would only make him a martyr and increase support not only for him, but for the concept of what he does; they US regime's goal here is to taint not just his reputation but the reputation of the whole concept of leaking information.

Sex offending is about the most effective way to acheive that. If they could have got children to scream rape, they probably would have, but I guess even they have restrictions on what they can do.
Just mentioning ideas like rape, is so effective for turning men with certain issues about publically demonstrating their chivalrousness against someone and blanking out the rest of the story... as demonstrated by Larvid and Dobella.

It's the old: "if you're innocent, you've got nothing to fear" routine... used by the US in its rendition programme no doubt? And certainly deployed by countless commie and totalitarian regimes... they even try it on in the UK... with the ID cards bullshit... fuck off.

America is after him, because he gave them a bloody nose; and they are out to shut down the whole gameshow too... no better than the Chinks in that respect.

The Australian government reluctantly divulged that he has committed no offence under Australian law, and thus cannot be tried there. Assange is not a US citizen, and neither did any of his alleged wrongdoings (circulating low to medium security US diplomatic cables leaked to him by a US army Private) occur on US soil. So they've got nothing on him either, legally. The Swedish 'broken condom' case has served to keep him cooped up in some rural estate in England for the better part of two years though.

So now a westerner, an Australian citizen, is applying to Ecuador for political asylum. How the world turns.
