CNN Video: Wikileaks Founder Will Walk Out of Your Interview If Asked About His Rape Case
GAWKER.com ^ | October 23, 2010 | Adrian Chen

In addition to facilitating the largest military leak in U.S. history yesterday, Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is a petulant man-child. Watch him walk out of a CNN interview when talk turned to his pending Swedish rape case.

(Snip to video clip)

(Things start to go sour around 2:35)

When the interviewer presses Assange about the rape and sexual molestation charges against him, Assange cooks up some of those Mission:Impossible rhetorical flourishes he's known for:

It's completely disgusting, Atika. I'm going to walk if you're going to contaminate us revealing the deaths of 104,000 people with attacks against my person.

Sorry, Julian, but you were the one who spun your botched tryst with a couple Swedish groupies into a devious Pentagon "smear campaign." Until they produce their spy IDs or the case is closed, you're going to have to live with questions about it.

At least the diva thing isn't an act. a New York Time profile of Assange published today reveals that he's just as snippy to his Wikileaks colleagues in private:

In an encrypted online chat, a transcript of which was passed to The Times, Mr. Assange was dismissive of his colleagues. He described them as "a confederacy of fools," and asked his interlocutor, "Am I dealing with a complete retard?"

(No wonder all his volunteers are quitting.)

OK, we'll quit contaminating the important work of Wikileaks by talking about what a prick Julian Assange is.

I guess this isn't exactly the type of publicity that Assange was expecting.

Touche!

"Assange is a maggot."

Yes, he is a disgusting little prick. I seldom wish anyone dead but am perfectly willing to make an exception in his case.

‘Isn’t our government supposed to assassinate people like this’...Our current regime will run ‘wet’ operations only on those planning to publish Obama unreleased personal records.

Does anyone else think he'd have had a very persuasive, possibly fatal visit, if he were about to leak 400,000 pages of secret Russian material? Or Chinese? Or even Israeli? Or Iranian?

I still want to know how they obtained the documents and why isn’t Obammys government allowing it to be published.

We shouldn't be surprised.

This is what the other side - the LEFT - is composed of.

Bill Donovan's OSS would have arranged an accident for Mr. Assange a long time ago.

You’re kidding, right?

This government under Barack Obama is applauding wildly at the revelations of this POS.

Anyone who has the well being of our men and women in uniform, as well as those who work in our intelligence agencies in mind would have sought out this man and taken care of business.

The guy needs a visit from people with black bags, and it needs to be ugly. He has as good as killed some Iraqi allies, and made the jobs that our soldiers pay for in injury and death more difficult.

I wonder if the Russians have any of that polonium-210 left? They would have no problemo taking care of this POS.

Assange was blatanly framed by the most powerful women in the “Women’s Lib” wing of the Socialist elite in Sweden and the Swedish military intelligence services provided the lawyers with the info to make it happen.

Same small group of lawyers are working with Europol, the CIA, MI6 etc to summarily eliminate the, privacy, copyright and IP Rights of Swedes to protect the MPAA, RIAA and equivalents based outside of Sweden.

Meanwhile stupid c*nts at CNN and Gawker live inside this little fantasy matrix and get played like a fiddle by the very power factions that control our airwaves and military budgets...

Assange did not commit rape, he was blatantly framed.

ANY American media outlet who states otherwise is doing the work or an actual worker for the US military industrial complex.

Assange should still be put up on actual charges of espionage, state secrets laws etc... let him defend himself in the US, UK, Iraqi or NATO allied country’s courts for his actions.
