Assange is a damned sight more interested in attention than freedom.

Of course, rendition becomes problematic if a spotlight is on him.

Rendition was never going to happen. Shouting about rendition is a good way of keeping his ego nicely inflated through getting more puff in the press, though.

Yeah, I read that to. Interesting claim: "in August, they sent a planeload of FBI agents to Iceland seeking our cooperation in what I understood as an operation set up to frame Julian Assange and WikiLeaks." Though he provides nil evidence. There is less to support his claim than there is to support the allegations against Assange. Yet you accept one immediately and have spent half a decade denying the others.

Is it not the stated aim of the US gov to get Assange & Wikileaks? That doesn't substantiate the claim that the 'planeload of FBI agents' was there to 'frame' Assange. Interesting that the link says Jónasson 'confirms' that the FBI were seeking to frame St Julian. Yet the article only says he 'claims' it happened. There is no corroboration. Jónasson may be reliable, or may have gone all Craig Murray. We don't know. And it seems a bit odd that the FBI would be doing this. They are domestic intelligence and investigation. Unless you are Kathaksung, of course. In which case they are a vast international terror organisation intent soley on persecuting him. Have Kathaksung and Ögmundur Jónasson ever been seen together at the same time? Hmmmm. Think on, brothers!

They sought his help under the ruse the FBI had info their systems were being hacked, he caught on they were after Assange and he kicked them out because they were not authorised to do anything is Iceland.

AUSTRALIAN diplomats have no doubt the United States is still gunning for Julian Assange, according to Foreign Affairs Department documents obtained by The Saturday Age. The Australian embassy in Washington has been tracking a US espionage investigation targeting the WikiLeaks publisher for more than 18 months. The declassified diplomatic cables, released under freedom of information laws, show Australia's diplomatic service takes seriously the likelihood that Assange will eventually be extradited to the US on charges arising from WikiLeaks obtaining leaked US military and diplomatic documents. www.smh.com.au/national/us-in-pursuit-of-assange-cables-reveal-20120817-24e8u.html

So he says, without any corroborating evidence. You place great faith in the integrity of one lapsed viking, yet none at all in the integrity of others. Odd double standard.

He was a minister in a government not known for falsehoods whilst the "others" are known for their lack of integrity.

Jules might be homeless soon. Ecuador is working on finding a way for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange to leave its London embassy after five years.
While the embassy stopped short of saying it wanted rid of Assange - who has infuriated Ecuador's president by criticising his political allies abroad - a veiled statement described the situation as 'untenable'.
The South American country is looking for a third-party mediator to help them work out a settlement with Britain regarding Assange, the foreign minister said on Tuesday.
Foreign Minister Maria Fernanda Espinosa said Ecuador is 'considering and exploring the possibility of mediation' to end the 'untenable' five-year stay.
'No solution will be achieved without international cooperation and the cooperation of the United Kingdom, which has also shown interest in seeking a way out,' she told foreign correspondents in Quito.

A UK warrant to arrest Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is still valid, a court has ruled, but his lawyers are arguing it should be dropped. www.bbc.com/news/uk-42964699Looks like the sex pest is stuck in his hidey hole as he continues to run from justice

Sweden tried to drop Assange extradition in 2013, CPS emails show UK prosecutors tried to dissuade Swedish counterparts from doing so, exchange shows Swedish prosecutors attempted to drop extradition proceedings against Julian Assange as early as 2013, according to a confidential exchange of emails with the Crown Prosecution Service seen by the Guardian. The sequence of messages also appears to challenge statements by the CPS that the case was not live at the time emails were deleted by prosecutors, according to supporters of the WikiLeaks founder. www.theguardian.com/media/2018/feb/11/sweden-tried-to-drop-assange-extradition-in-2013-cps-emails-show
