BREAKING : 'Safe & Healthy': Assange reveals details of 'Snowden Op', slams US 'war on whistleblowers'




“The current status of Mr Snowden and Harrison is that both are healthy and safe and they are in contact with their legal teams,” the WikiLeaks founder said. “I cannot give further information as to their whereabouts,” Assange added.

“Snowden is not a traitor, he is not a spy he is a whistleblower who told the public the important truth,” he pointed out.

WikiLeaks approached Iceland and other countries with a formal request for asylum for Snowden, says the organization’s spokesperson Kristinn Hrafnsson.

Well folks it seems Wikileaks have won this war against the Obama administration.

To me, Wikileaks have played a very smart game of chess.

Using the pro-leak governments officials as strategic decoys.

Well played assange........well played.

Nice paragraph for the NSA to log using the keywords :

Dear NSA.

Today I have eaten PORK, that is obviously something you may want to log in PRISM as you like to log completely random words like PORK. Im sure that PORK is a threat to National Security and must be stopped before the freedom and democracy loving america is overrun by ANTI-GOVERNMENT AL-QAEDA supporting PORK lovers.

Kindest regards from a PORK loving ANTI-GOVERNMENT ENEMY OF THE STATE (Great Film)

Great news - and this is starting to look really good. That Assange could have had such tremendous influence over this matter in virtual capativity is also quite astonishing.
The international solidarity on this issue is also something we have rarely, if ever, seen before - I feel a sense of cooperation between countries to protect the truth.

Wow - that's a new one!


We'll still be needing that link though

WikiLeaks is very involved with Snowden's exit plan, interesting.

www.reuters.com...


"The current status of Mr. Snowden and Harrison is that both are healthy and safe and they are in contact with their legal teams," Assange said, referring to Sarah Harrison, a WikiLeaks representative accompanying Snowden.

"Edward Snowden left Hong Kong on June 23 bound for Ecuador via a safe pass through Russia and other states," Assange told reporters on a conference call from inside Ecuador's embassy in London, where he has been himself hiding from arrest and extradition.

Assange is wrong in the eyes of the law Snowden is a traitor. Snowden threw his life away for a very stupid reason. He didn't tell anything anyone with half a brain didn't already know. Government officials over the decades has said from time to time that the government listens in on phone calls and the spying on other nations well a person would have to no brain to not know that was happening.

Unfortunatly without people just like Mr Snowden, a lot of brain dead people would have gone on being unaware of the situations realities.
Its the same with mind kontrol. The science is well advancd and in use against the citizens of the countries that have sponsored it.
(as well as the ad agencies)
But nobody has the brains to see it.....

Its not about what we already knew--its about a paper trail of evidence. Without collecting the appropriate evidence then we would have no way of putting these criminals in the alphabet agencies on trial.

I think you are forgetting about the international implications of this very detailed revelation:



Even though most of the debate has been focusing on the person of Snowden and the role/reaction of the U.S. government, Europe is directly concerned by the massive U.S. snooping on European citizens. So how has Europe reacted to this crisis so far? As expressed by the Guardian, “Officials in European capitals demanded immediate answers from their U.S. counterparts and denounced the practice of secretly gathering digital information on Europeans as unacceptable, illegal and a serious violation of basic rights.”


Source

This could, and in my opinion already has, result in a very serious international incident with long term implications.

Oh this little excuse again, really?
There is a difference between SUSPECTING and KNOWING.
You cannot possibly claim that you "knew" the extent of the spying, that your government was watching and recording YOUR communications. The very existence of the Constitution and the fact that your elected are supposed to UPHOLD that constitution should have led you to believe that this wasn't happening.

Suspecting is one thing, proof is another.

You cannot fight against something you think might be happening, but you can fight against something you now KNOW is happening.

Where?
Can you point to these statements?
And does any statement anywhere make it clear that the US government is collecting data from PRIVATE COMPANIES? Can you show me one example where any person in the US government has stated that the phone calls of American citizens are being monitored?

No, you can't, because this is all in your head.

I have no idea why any sane person would possibly want to defend this gargantuan breach of basic Human rights, but then having seen some of your other posts in recent weeks where you defended the hanging of gay people in Iran, I'm really not that surprised.

I fail to see what any of this has to do with "the Obama Administration" as this spying has been going on for quite some time now. Through the Bush administration as well.

It is amazing how people cling to their ignorance like a warm fuzzy blanket on a cold night.

This has NOTHING to do with "Obama".
It has NOTHING to do with "Terrorists".
It has NOTHING to do with corporations.

It has EVERYTHING to do with a very few, very powerful, banking families who seek to bring this world under their complete and total control by completely enslaving us with technology so that they may then hand over the reigns to the one/s whom they serve.

The one/s whom they serve is who this is really all about.

Presidents, corporations, "terrorists" and "banking families" are just some of the vehicles they use in order to accomplish this task.

The movie is playing out right in front of us and all most people seem to be able to do is comment on individual little pixels and how bright they are.

Exactly, before now we had no documented evidence of what we all suspected. Suspecting something doesn't mean crap. Some conspiracies can be so god damn obvious, yet if you don't have evidence and you come onto ATS and write about it, you'll have an army of debunkers ready to mock and ridicule you.

Sorry but what a crap article. I don't see any details about the "Snowden Op" unless the fact he sent a request to Iceland for asylum counts.

That said, there's worse places to spend your asylum. I for one wouldn't oppose hanging out w/ the women in Iceland. "F" leaving the country for travel.

What criminals? Have you forgotten the patriot act? They wanted this because they knew sooner or later someone would spill the beans so they passed something that made it legal. How do you make something illegal legal in Washington? Simple just say it's for national defense.

Please point out where I said that made it ok. Are you one of those who didn't know that this has been happening for years?

Sure there was evidence. How many times have places like Google, Yahoo and other places that complained about the government wanting peoples information. The evidence was out there people just didn't want to see it.
