The offshore bank account details of 2,000 "high net worth individuals" and corporations detailing massive potential tax evasion will be handed over to the WikiLeaks organisation in London tomorrow by the most important and boldest whistleblower in Swiss banking history, Rudolf Elmer, two days before he goes on trial in his native Switzerland.
British and American individuals and companies are among the offshore clients whose details will be contained on CDs presented to WikiLeaks at the Frontline Club in London. Those involved include, Elmer tells the Observer, "approximately 40 politicians".
Elmer, who after his press conference will return to Switzerland from exile in Mauritius to face trial, is a former chief operating officer in the Cayman Islands and employee of the powerful Julius Baer bank, which accuses him of stealing the information.
He is also at a time when the activities of banks are a matter of public concern one of a small band of employees and executives seeking to blow the whistle on what they see as unprofessional, immoral and even potentially criminal activity by powerful international financial institutions.
Along with the City of London and Wall Street, Switzerland is a fortress of banking and financial services, but famously secretive and expert in the concealment of wealth from all over the world for tax evasion and other extra-legal purposes.

Look for any of the Kennedy’s.
Ping aling
“high net worth individuals” dial M
Publishing classified US documents, meh.... But THIS might get them in some trouble.
Be cool if it was Al Gore, the Clintons, Bono of U2, George Soros, etc...that have their names released. Note that Soros is a Liberal Commie Globalist, so I do not think he has ties to WikiLeaks
I think only the most Commie of the Business Socialists would be upset with the release of these names. The politicians who make the laws that tax everyone...they should be exposed
I agree, this man won’t last long if what he says is true.
Aha---pols offshore accounts---I knew Wikileaks would come in handy. Course, I'm not surprised in the least. Gangsters in govt have been been looting and pillaging the US Treasury for ages.
However, I nominate the Chi/mob now in the WH as the plus-perfect looting operation. Read on:

The Federal government could potentially inflate away these trillions in Treasuries, buy enough elected officials to force austerity so inflation remains tame. In essence, these private banks and corporations now own the revenue stream of the Federal government and its taxpayers.
Neat con, and the marks (us taxpayers) will never understand how "saving our financial system" led to their servitude to the very interests they bailed out. The circle is now complete: in "saving our financial system," the public borrowed trillions and transferred the money to private Power Elites, who then buy the public debt with the money swindled out of the taxpayer.
Then the taxpayers transfer more wealth every year to the Power Elites/Plutocracy in the form of interest on the Treasury debt. The Power Elites will own the debt that was taken on to bail them out of bad private bets: this is the culmination of privatized gains, socialized risk.
In effect, it's a Third World/colonial scam on a gigantic scale: plunder the public treasury, then buy the debt which was borrowed and transferred to your pockets. You are buying the country with money you borrowed from its taxpayers. No despot could do better. (Excerpt) Read more at oftwominds.com
==================================..
SO HOW DID GANGSTER GOVERNMENT SCAM $14 TRILLION BAILOUTS INTO THEIR POCKETS? Bernie Madoff used the time-tested Wall Street MO----creating a super-secret labyrinth of interrelated international funds, institutions and financial entities of almost unparalleled complexity and breadth......with assets and businesses in multiple places overseas that hid thievery, money launderering and tax evasion.
"Wall Street Rahm, take a bow" (/snix) (remember that Emanuel took contol of Dept of the Treasury activities when he went to the WH). Rahm also put his brother in charge of Obamacare, and Medicare/Medicaid billions.
<><> KEEP IN MIND Fannie/Freddie are the key criminal mechanisms of the criminal enterprise that is the thieving Democrat party and its minions. <><>
Rahm Emanuel was also appointed to Fannie Mae's board by Clinton----- Rahm's financial activities were protected by Obama's refusal to release Fannie documents requested under FOIA.

Fraudster had links to offshore fund run by Bidens
Reuters on Yahoo | 2/23/09 | BY Ajay Kamalakaran
(Reuters) A fund of offshore hedge funds run by two members of VP Joe Biden's family was marketed exclusively by offshore firms controlled by Texas financier Allen Stanford, charged by regulators with an $8 billion fraud, the Wall Street Journal said.
The Bidens $50 million fund was jointly branded between the Bidens' Paradigm Global Advisors LLC and the offshore Stanford Financial Group entity headquartered in Antigua, and was known as the Paradigm Stanford Capital Management Core Alternative Fund, the paper said. Stanford-related offshore companies marketed the Biden fund to investors and also invested about $2.7 million of their own money in the fund, the paper said, citing a lawyer for Paradigm.
Paradigm Global Advisors is owned through a holding company by the vice president Biden's son, Hunter, and Joe Biden's brother, James, according to the WSJ. Paradigm's attorney, Marc LoPresti, who represents Hunter Biden and James Biden, as well as Paradigm, told the paper he did not know which Stanford entity invested the roughly $2.7 million.
Marc LoPresti, who represents Hunter Biden and James Biden told the paper the Bidens NEVER met or communicated with Stanford. (/snicker)

If it contains the names of politicians, especially "progressive" politicians, I have to agree 110%.
Stick it to The Man!
If there were progressive names on the list he’d be dead already. The list has been scrubbed and only contains Republicans.
I don’t trust any of this wikileak stuff. I see Soros’ hands in this.
Swiss whistleblower to hand over offshore banking secrets...to WikiLeaks----will show approximately 40 politicians with offshore accounts.
Oh boy. Now THIS will be sweeeeeet.
My bets are:
As Abe Foxman and his ADL, along with AIPAC, will scream 'ANTISEMITISM' and 'McCarthyism Witch Hunt' (which is why the HUAC hearing came to s sudden halt. Too many commie spies / traitors were Jewish) (True Fact).
(Yawn)....yeah, the usual protection game.... (snore).
Keep in mind, Madoff was running simultaneous scams:
(1) a tax evasion scheme for wealthy businessmen ("losing" money is a tax write-off;
(2) a money laundering scam;
(3) a protection racket,
(4) aiding and abetting wealthy tax-exempt foundations to evade US banking laws and the IRS.
The SEC did not have the slightest clue about Madoff's financial fraud. Until Madoff confessed.
Madoff operated free and clear for some 25 years b/c knew he was "protected from the law. Few people realize that it is a career-killer for any L/E agency to suggest that someone of Jewish heritage is doing something illegal.
Madoff and his investors, money launderers, tax evaders, and so-called "philanthropists," colluded to keep the law at arms length----they strong-armed the message: "You come after us, you lose your job."
If anyone dared to suggest wrongdoing---Big Abe was hauled out to beat them down with the dreaded club of anti-Semitism.
I concur. But that tactic still works.
We've wised up to the Race Card being played. They've cried 'wolf' so to many times being called a racist no longer has any effect. It's now a joke.
But being called antisemitic, even when calling out Israel for spying on us, people still get the willies about saying anything.
Oh NO, Pretty please, don't call me that. I won't say anything ever again.
Wrong is wrong. 'Ally' or not. You don't spy or steal secrets from friends.
And there's no 'do-overs', or 'Special Status' (aka; Untouchable) because of your Religion.
If I made Abe's or the SPLC's 'list' - I'd throw a party.
LOL. I can barely await the list.
OH BOY.
Perhaps this is why Michael Moore came to the defense of Assange.
You can take that to the bank!
I think he like to make people sweat, squirm and pee their pants.
