I hope so. The latest is that the Brits now have a warrant.

The Swiss won’t even lock the accounts of drug dealers, terrorists and ex Nazis. Looks like Julian has made some very powerful enemies. At first I thought the socialists and Euros would protect him. But it is looking more and more like he is going to end up getting suicided before he can make that dooms day document dump he is threatening.

He already has the dump distributed and probably several associates with the key. It is really looking like the kaka is going to hit the revolving blade machine and soon.

If he can be gotten to, his associates can be gotten to.

Of all of them, he is the safest, because he is the most famous.

The little-known others may have already disappeared.

Wow, a warrant existed for a child molesting movie director for years and they never took his accounts.

In the immortal words of the Duke of Wellington:

"Publish and be damned!"

I don't think anybody in this administration has a fraction of the guts that the Iron Duke had, though.

Yes but there is also know that the Mossad, FSB (ex KGB), MI-5, CIA, MSS, and just about every other acronym agency world wide waiting to kill whoever turns that key. Heck even NASCAR and the PTA probably want to kill this guy. It started out with a bunch of socialist punks having fun and games. But when you start screwing with the lively hoods of the Chi Coms, Russian mob, and Hillery Clinton your life span tends to shorten rather abruptly.

I really don't like what this guy did with classified information, but I have to say that he has exposed how deeply corrupt and dishonest the Power Elite of the world are. We knew that already, I think, but Assange has put it all out there as a vast web of manipulation and lies. And the fact that the Power Elite have sealed off his Swiss bank accounts just exposes out deep and widespreasd their network is.

When his encrypted files are opened, I hope they are like the seventh seal of the Apocalypse.

That he's still alive says a great deal about the substance of his overblown anti-west rhetoric.

You're way nicer than I am - I think it's time to bring back the blood-eagle. Trying HARD to remember that it's not a Christian thing to do.

Releasing the critical infrastructure and security sites raised the stakes, I think.

It's stopped being a gossip swap.

Yes among other things he leaked embarrassing data about how the US tried to force the copenhagen climate accords down peoples' throats and spend millions of taxpayers' dollars clandestinely to do this. Good reason to want him dead.
