The strange case of Julian Assange

Bernard Keane | Nov 30, 2015 1:10PM
It’s become clear that the Swedish and UK governments will do virtually anything to ensure the investigation of Julian Assange never proceeds.


Julian Assange faces very serious allegations, politicians like to say. That was the description from UK Prime Minister David Cameron’s office three years ago, defending the UK’s determination to extradite him to Sweden. And that was the description early this year from then-UK deputy PM Nick Clegg, too — “he should go to Sweden to face very serious allegations and charges of rape,” said Clegg, not long before leading his party to annihilation in this year’s general election. Clegg, of course, was peddling the oft-repeated lie that there are charges against Assange.

But for very serious allegations – sexual molestation, unlawful coercion, sexual assault — the UK and Swedish governments have displayed zero interest in investigating them. In fact, the history of the case against Assange is a history of increasingly bizarre efforts by authorities to avoid questioning him.

When Swedish prosecutors first examined complaints about Assange by two women in 2010, the Chief Prosecutor of Stockholm dismissed all but one of the allegations, including the accusation of sexual assault, saying “there is no suspicion of any crime whatsoever”. After speaking to prosecutors, Assange remained in Sweden for another week to be interviewed about the one remaining allegation (of molestation). However, after an appeal by former Swedish politician Claes Borgstrom, another prosecutor, Marianne Ny, reopened the whole case. Assange remained in Sweden and offered to be interviewed again, but, in the first of what would turn out to be a long litany of excuses, was told Ny was ill and unable to speak to him. Ny’s office then told Assange’s lawyer he was free to leave Sweden, but once Assange did so, an arrest warrant was issued for him. Assange then offered to return to Sweden to speak to Ny and gave her a full week of dates in which he would do so. These were all rejected.

This was all despite Swedish police having access to the texts of one of the alleged victims of Assange saying she “did not want to put any charges on JA but that the police were keen on getting a grip on him”, that she was shocked when he was arrested given she only wanted him to take an STD test, and that “it was the police who made up the charges”.

Ny’s unwillingnness to interview Assange would become the pattern for the next five years: Assange repeatedly offered to speak to Swedish authorities by phone, by videolink, or in person at the Australian embassy. The Swedes refused all opportunities to do so and demanded Assange return to Sweden, issuing a European arrest warrant for him. Eventually the EAW would be upheld by British courts under UK laws, which since then have been amended. Under current British law, a similar case to Assange’s would now be successfully appealed and the EAW rejected.

Once he had sought refuge in the Ecaudorean embassy in 2012, Assange continued to offer Swedish authorities the opportunity to speak with him, and they continued to reject them. But while they regularly rejected Assange’s offer to be interviewed, other suspects were treated very differently: during the last five years, the Swedes have on 44 occasions asked to travel to the UK to interview, or asked British police to interview, other people in Britain in relation to allegations including violent crime, fraud and even murder. Assange, however, couldn’t be treated the same way — he had to go to Sweden.

In fact, so absurd was Ny’s refusal to question Assange that in November last year, a Swedish court found she had breached her duty in failing to progress the case. With Assange’s Swedish arrest warrant in danger of being quashed due to her inaction and the expiry of three elements of the investigation looming due to Sweden’s statute of limitations, Ny then performed a sudden about-face — she said she would question Assange in the Ecuadorean embassy, as requested by Assange and Ecuador for years, and contacted UK authorities about the process for doing so.

But Ny still had a card left to play: despite her saying in March that she would do so, she never contacted the Ecuadoreans about the interview — in fact, eventually she admitted that she hadn’t bothered contacting the Ecuadorean Foreign Ministry in Quito until “a late stage” — just five days before a scheduled interview with Assange in June. When the Ecuadoreans said they wanted diplomatic staff present during the interview given the country had given him refuge, the Swedes called the interview off and blamed the Ecuadoreans for failing to co-operate. Ny had managed to avoid yet another interview opportunity.

The refusal of the Swedes to interview Assange seems to give credence to Assange’s fears the Swedes’ priority is to get him in custody not so the now one remaining allegation of sexual assault can be progressed, but so he can be extradited to the United States under the investigation into WikiLeaks’ role in the release of Chelsea Manning cables. We learnt in March that this US investigation is still on foot, despite Manning now being in the third year of her sentence.

But if that seems like a conspiracy theory, it gets better: in October, it was revealed via freedom of information laws that UK prosecutors had urged Ny not to interview Assange in the UK, even before he sought refuge with the Ecuadoreans. I suggest you interview him only on surrender to Sweden,” prosecutor Paul Close told Ny in 2011. He was concerned that the interview might suggest Assange was innocent.

So despite the serious allegations the UK government said Assange faced, its prosecutors didn’t want him interviewed by the Swedes about them.

Meantime, the Australian government had said nothing. Julie Bishop was happy to use Assange to criticise the Gillard government but since becoming Foreign Minister has barely mentioned him.

If the plan was to use a sexual assault allegation — one prosecutors refused to investigate, one described by one of alleged victims as invented by police — to nullify WikiLeaks even if Assange avoided being extradited to the United States, it’s only partly worked. This year WikiLeaks has had its best year since 2010, releasing, inter alia, repeated iterations of chapters from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a vast accumulation of diplomatic cables from the monstrous Saudi Arabian regime, emails from CIA director John Brennan’s unauthorised personal email account, more revelations about National Security Agency surveillance targets, the text of the secret Trade In Services Agreement draft and details of the NSA’s massive spying on French presidents, which infuriated the government of Francois Hollande.

Even so, Assange remains confined on the basis of very serious allegations, with the Swedish and UK governments apparently keen to ensure they are never properly investigated, while his own government would prefer that Australians forget about him entirely.

COMMENT
The Rape of Democracy, Liberty & Justice
Governments of morally 'superior' and 'democratic' nations of the 'emancipated' and 'enlightened' West, commit abuse of state power, as if the powers wielded by publicly appointed, and therefore representative and accountable assembled governments, were derived from their very existence per se, independently of their role as representative and public servant.
Such governments behave as if they were the embodiment and representation of god, as were rulers of an age gone by, and thus entitled to  practically function as:  absolute, opaque and unaccountable authorities, without obligation to function in accordance with law, or in accordance with principles of democracy.
Governments of the deceived West transgress against democracy, law, justice and freedom, in an enlightened third millennium, while holding position as:  intended democracies, by appointment and in the service of the emancipated.
Yet a journalist performing a rightful & vital function in democracy, upon publishing evidence of war rimes committed by multiple states, has been undemocratically and unjustly entombed by those he exposed, as criminal, corrupt.
As evidenced by:
  • the political persecution of Assange (which includes a 5-year US 120-man taskforce investigation and closed-door US grand jury investigation in relation to non-US nationals, WikiLeaks and Assange, whereby:
(i) the US is seeking to redefine journalism as 'espionage'; and 
(ii) seeking to extend their national boundaries & jurisdiction across the globe, in efforts to:
1) to decommission WikiLeaks
2) and, more generally, to eliminate all checks on government conduct and power & to eliminate potential exposure of state wrongdoings
And therefore to:
ELIMINATE restrictions on state power, moving from democracy to (open) totalitarianism.
  • the 5-year detention of Assange, without charge;
  • the astounding amount of money the corrupt state has spent subverting justice and democracy the last 3 years alone, detaining journalist Julian Assange (24-hour uniformed and plain clothes police presence / now less high profile, plain clothes surveillance):
  • @ GBP £13-MILLION +
  • @ USD $19-MILLION +
  • @ AUD $27-MILLION +
  • @ EUR €18-MILLION +
  • as well as extraordinary refusal of the British authorities to abide by international law and to recognise political asylum granted to Assange by Ecuador, pursuant to  such law;
the vengeful state authorities (whose corruption Assange exposed), presently wield power that is absolutely illegitimate in functioning democracy. That state feloniously commits unlawful and undemocratic political persecution of a journalist and has exacted 5 years detention without charge, in violation of the core principles of democracy, and, otherwise, in violation of international law.
We, the divested, are rendered subjects of an authoritarian state and a (usurped) power unto itself.
We are passive, silent and complaint sleepwalkers in the face of totalitarian injustice and abuse of power  -- a corrupted power that, in fact, derives from a public that is comprised of free men who must individually and collectively challenge injustice and perversion of democracy.
The public remains misled by journalists, whose very role in a properly functioning democracy is that of guardian of liberty and democracy, and therefore voice against the abuse of state power.
But the spineless, collective of emasculated lowlifes known as Western journalists, generally prefer to kneel and otherwise prostrate themselves in the service of the banker and corporate-serving, totalitarian (usurped) state, slobbering at the feet of corrupt authority.
Not only do these contemptible cowards fail to challenge the corrupt state,  they perform the dirty work of that state by heaping smear and denigration on a politically persecuted and entombed journalist, who courageously defied corrupt authority and state might, to reveal the truth.
A courageous Australian journalist and an outstanding Australian, who embodies the spirit of the Australian nation, is entombed in London.
Nominally Australian politicians of the Antipodean colony that is Australia, shall, jointly and severally, be known by history for their role in the corruption and the rape of democracy, liberty, justice, and the betrayal of Australian journalist, Julian Assange.
Julian Assange deserves fierce and unwavering national support, yet he has been abandoned by those appointed to represent all Australians.
Politicians who remain silent and complicit in the face of abuse of power, corruption and violation of democracy that has robbed an Australian journalist of 5 years of his liberty and life, betray all Australians and make a mockery of sovereign Australian nationhood and a lie of freedom.
Australians cannot continue to stand by and let this Australian journalist go unprotected and undefended, while the light that is his life is entombed and snuffed out by the lawless and corrupt state wielding undemocratic and, therefore, illegitimate power & a state that has so far spent:
Over AUD$27-MILLION spent by Britain in 3 years
blocking Assange's lawful political asylum
-------------
'STATE' refers to one or more of the following, individually and/or collectively:  Britain, Sweden, United States of America and Australia.
AMERICA Managed Democracy. POLITICS DOMINATED BY ECONOMICS.  'Inverted totalitarianism'. Corporate Totalitarianism / Corporate State.  Extinguishes democracy.  Courts & legislative bodies, in the service of corporate power.  American 'Inverted totalitarianism' effectively seized all mechanisms of power to render citizen impotent.  Inverted totalitarianism exploits the poor.  Antithesis of constitutional power.  Show elections.
