He's got quite a following. He could attract a reasonable number of votes. Pity he's locked up and we can't see him personally promote the party. His father is doing most of the legwork isn't he?

Whilst I admire the virtue of liberty, freedom of expression, and applaud his alleged technical prowess and Wikileaks timely release of classified documents, especially that relating Climategate, .... my concern is that it's all been a bit of a convenient truth, and selective release of information, since when do cyber terrorists get a standing ovation for having breached national security on a global scale, then get to deliver speeches to the UN?



http://wikileaks.org/Transcript-of-Julian-Assange.html


Julian has become somewhat of a poster child for UN policy on human rights.

Now imagine, if Assange reneged on his Climate skeptic stance, and suddenly began espousing Climate Change, after the release of Climategate 3.0---- a dubious document being selectively released to the chosen ones, a handful of Climate Skeptic bloggers of no real calibre, importance.

If you were going to distribute top-secret documents a trusted few, why people ...bloggers, noone has heard of, this or would listen to ....and those who have a reputation for blogging conspiracy fodder?


I have a gut feeling our Julian is going to do a couple more back flips before he's done.

I hope I am wrong, hope he's everything quite a few of us had hoped he would be and more, but given his UN-shift and internationalists globalist air... I just cant help but think he's was a product of UN wizardry.

Our very own wizard of Oz?

I usually go with my gut feeling, when deciding whats real, and whats not real.... and unfortunately, I think Julian Assange is not what we had all hoped he would be.

Julian Assange - Narcissistic wanker.
'Julian Assange is everything he once despised' - Wikileaks Insider
* by: Staff Writers

WIKILEAKS founder Julian Assange "has become everything he originally, rightly, despised."

These are the abrupt words of Wikileaks spokesperson, James Ball who wrote about working for Assange in an essay on news website, The Daily Beast.

Ball revealed that he quit WikiLeaks after finding he had been tricked into handing over 90,000 US embassy cables covering Russia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Israel to an anti-semitic writer and supporter of Belarus dictator, Alexander Lukashenko, Israel Shamir.

The former WikiLeaks employee revealed that Assange was friends with the man with ties to Russian security services and that he probably had reason to try to keep him on side: his son, Johannes Wahlstrom, was Assange's defence witness in his Swedish sexual assault trial.

Shamir was introduced to Bell under a fake name and Assange ordered him to hand him over the WikiLeaks cables.

"Why did this prove to be a grave mistake?," wrote Bell.

"The first hints of trouble came through contacts from various Putin-influenced Russian media outlets.

"A pro-Putin outlet got in touch to say Shamir had been asking for $10,000 for access to the cables. He was selling the material we were working to give away free, to responsible outlets."

WikiLeaks also had reason to believe Shamir had given the cables to Belarus dictator, Alexander Lukashenko.

"Assange refused and blocked any attempts at investigation, and released public statements that were simply untrue," he wrote.

Assange also allegedly tried to drain WikiLeaks' bank accounts to pay for his legal defence in a sexual assault trial. (He was unsuccessful).

To try to cover this up, Assange forced everyone at WikiLeaks to sign Non Disclosure Agreements (NDA) preventing them from selling, disclosing or talking about their work or the cables they were working to release.


In January last year, Assange produced a new NDA silencing anyone from saying a word about WikiLeaks activities for more than a decade "on the pain of millions of dollars of penalties."

WikiLeaks staff (encouraged by Assange) kept Bell - who had refused to sign - awake until 3am pressuring him to sign the document.

"Early the next morning, I awoke with Assange sat on my bed, pressuring me to sign - even before I was dressed," he wrote. "I held out, eventually left our remote location, and didn't go back."

Bell said he was reminded of the conclusion of George Orwell's Animal Farm: "Julian Assange has become everything he originally, rightly, despised."

"Assange isn't entirely venal," wrote Ball. Not too sure about that.

"His problem is 'noble cause' corruption: behaviour he'd rightly condemn in others, he excuses in himself, because he believes, at his core, he is the good guy." So was Judas...

He is a coward.

I don't think he stands for freedom, he stands for what you become if your ego exceeds you abilities.

Time for him to be put in a box and forgotten.
