I always give thanks where due.

It's now time for the people of Australia to thank the Ecuadorian government for taking in and giving safety one of our own.

If you feel inclined, follow the link below.

Do what your country couldn't do.

Let's thank Ecuador.

Do the ICC members go to the Bilderberg meetings? One can only hope not.  Is there an organisation left in the world that is not a whore to the USA?

Ecuador may file appeal to ICC if UK refuses Assange safe passage

Ecuador has said it may appeal to the International Criminal Court (ICC) if the UK refuses to grant Julian Assange safe passage out of the country.

Eciadorian presidential staff adviser Alexis Mera said his government would pursue every legal means to bring Assange to Ecuador.

"We are open to discuss with Britain the solution to this problem, and if there is no diplomatic solution, we may resort to the International Court of Justice," Ecuadorian daily EL Commercio quoted Mera as saying.

"It would be terrible and an attack on all international rights" if British police were to enter the Ecuadorian embassy, he said.

On Friday Mera attended a cabinent meeting with President Rafael Correa and other ministers in the Southern city of Liba.

AUSTRALIAN diplomats believe the US is targeting WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for possible prosecution.

The Australian embassy in Washington is taking seriously the possibility Assange could eventually be extradited to the US on charges including espionage and conspiracy relating to the release of classified information by WikiLeaks, Fairfax newspapers report.

The embassy has been keeping tabs on a US investigation into WikiLeaks and Assange for more than 18 months and cites media reports about the secret empanelment of a grand jury to pursue the WikiLeaks case, according to declassified cables released under Freedom of Information.

The view expressed in the cables conflicts with Foreign Minister Bob Carr's public statements on the Australian's possible fate.


Fairfax reports the cables also show that the Australian government requested early advice from the US on any decision to indict or seek extradition of Assange.

THE Ecuadorean Embassy is preparing for a long stand off with British authorities as the South American country’s president declares his Australian guest can stay indefinitely.

This morning crates of food, including fresh fruit and vegetables, were being trucked into the embassy building as well as bottles of water. The embassy is not geared for accommodation but have since brought in a bed and rigged up a shower.

Meanwhile, new details of Mr Assange's living conditions inside the embassy have emerged, with friends saying he sleeps in a converted office, orders pizza deliveries and has dance parties with pals.

A standoff lol

A lifestyle any hero could adapt to.

You can't hide from the truth Amerika.


US intends to chase Assange, cables show

The declassified diplomatic cables, released under freedom of information legislation, show Australia's ambassador, the former Labor leader Kim Beazley, has made high level representations to the US government asking for advance warning of any moves to prosecute Assange.

Briefings for the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, and Senator Carr also suggest the Australian government has no in-principle objection to extradition.
(Australia has no principles full stop)


Senator Carr has repeatedly dismissed suggestions that the US has any interest in prosecuting and extraditing Assange. In June, Senator Carr also told the ABC Insiders program: “I've received no hint that they've got a plan to extradite him . . . I would expect that the US would not want to touch this."

You can't hide from the truth Bob Carr

However, the Australian embassy in Washington reported in February that “the US investigation into possible criminal conduct by Mr Assange has been ongoing for more than a year”.

The embassy identified a wide range of criminal charges the US could bring against Assange, including espionage, conspiracy, unlawful access to classified information and computer fraud.

Australian diplomats expect that any charges against Assange would be carefully and narrowly drawn in an effort to avoid conflict with the First Amendment free speech provisions of the US Constitution.

The released diplomatic cables also show that the
Australian government considers the prospect of extradition sufficiently likely that, on direction from Canberra, Mr Beazley sought high level US advice on “the direction and likely outcome of the investigation” and “reiterated our request for early advice of any decision to indict or seek extradition of Mr Assange”.

The question of advance warning of any prosecution or extradition moves was previously raised by Australian diplomats in December 2010 when they first confirmed that Assange was the target of what US Justice Department officials described as an "unprecedented'' investigation.

The Australians on that occasion explained that the advance warning would be appreciated ''so that ministers could respond appropriately''.
