  • www.democracyno... - WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange took refuge in the Ecuadorean embassy last year to avoid extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning over sex assault and rape allegations. He fears that Sweden will agree to extradite him to the United States. On Tuesday, Ecuador's foreign minister accused the British government of trampling on Assange's rights by refusing to allow him to travel to Ecuador, which granted him political asylum almost a year ago. Joining us from the embassy, Assange addresses what he calls "attacks on all fronts against WikiLeaks," from a monetary embargo involving some of the world's largest financial firms to a new Hollywood documentary on WikiLeaks, "We Steal Secrets." Assange also discusses a little-known meeting he held in June 2011 with Google CEO Eric Schmidt. We air an excerpt of audio recording from that meeting.

    Eric Schmidt works for the US DOJ and is currently in the UK at the Bilderberg conference integrating it's network in order to keep watch over anyone the DOJ wishes. Eric Schmidt and the DOJ needs to be taken down a few notches.

    Unfortunately Julian, the government of the people, by the people and for the people is no longer extant. I thank you for your efforts and condemn the powers and agencies that imprison you and Bradley. Fortunately, I won't live long enough to endure the coming struggles the average citizen of America will face. The ideals of the ruling government and military have been replaced by insanity and the freedom we once earned is evaporating quickly. Boycotts and strikes may be the answer. Luck2you

    If you are going to make slanderous statements perhaps you should explain...unless you are just a troll.
