Assange dragged out of Embassy and arrested in London

A sad day for transparency and the rights of the people to know what their elected officials are hiding from them.

I can only wonder if recent events triggered this action.

Yup.

Bring him here and offer immunity for testifying about what, exactly, went on with the Clinton email releases.

I’m skeptical of the ‘official version’ of the story.

Or exactly what was his relationship and what role did he play with Roger Stone, Sean Hannity, and the Trump campaign

The danger is that the time the tories can spare from economic suicide is spent on grovelling to bullies. I wish we had a British Government again.

Like you had during the crippling nationwide strikes in the Seventies, Taff?

BTW, the government of Great Britain that sits in Westminster isn't "yours."

Moreno also said that British authorities had offered him a guarantee that Assange would not be extradited to a country where he could be tortured or face the death penalty. That seemed like a clear reference to the United States, where, the United States attorney’s office for the Eastern District of Virginia accidentally revealed in November that it had filed a secret indictment charging Assange with crimes related to Wikileaks disclosures.

Julian Assange has been arrested by police in London after almost seven years in the Ecuadorian embassy. The WikiLeaks founder was dragged out of the embassy at approximately 10:35 am local time, 5:35 am ET.

Assange did not leave of his own free will and could be heard shouting “UK must resist, you can resist!” as he was physically moved out of the Ecuadorian embassy by several men. The arrest was livestreamed over YouTube on Russian news channel RT.

According to the WikiLeaks Twitter account, Assange was removed against his will. The organization said that an unnamed Ecuadorian ambassador “invited British police into the embassy” to arrest the bearded WikiLeaks founder. As you can see from the video, British police seemed to be smirking as he was loaded into a large police vehicle.

he relationship between Assange and his host country of Ecuador has been hostile over the past couple of years. Moreno even recently accused Assange of leaking his private messages and photos.

“Mr. Assange has violated the agreement we reached with him and his legal counsel too many times,” Moreno said earlier this month.

Moreno posted a video to Twitter this morning stating that while Ecuador has protected Assange’s human rights, and “provided for his everyday needs,” the country had decided to revoke his asylum claim. Moreno insisted that he had been assured that Assange would not be extradited anywhere where he would face the death penalty. The United States is considered unique in the developed world for having the death penalty, unlike the vast majority of European countries.

“In line with our strong commitment to human rights and international law, I requested Great Britain guarantee that Mr. Assange would not be extradited to a country where he could face torture or the death penalty,”
