No doubt a lot of these accounts are dodgy but obviously the thing this guy doesn't know is whether these accounts have already been declared. I have a friend that has a Swiss Bank account because of the services they offer but it's always been declared to HMRC.....forums like this are full of people banging on about how st UK banks are...some people do choose to bank elsewhere!

An awful lot of the money in Switzerland is widely known to be from the US so I suspect most of the headlines will be made on that side of the pond.

That was the question I was going to ask. Obviously this is another source from the latest, being Manning.
Jim, it seems you are all skim reading the link provided. Here try this one

http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/A...

Note that he laboured a point that he wasn't giving it to Assange he was handing it off to Wiki.
Your point, underlines the essential underlying point about wikileaks and Mr Assange; he is simply the public face of a largely anonymous group of individuals that 'are' wikileaks. This somewhat puts all this talk of topping him into a certain perspective. Ultimately it will be futile to murder him because he is ostensibly part of the network and not the network.

The Milibands appear to have the combined ability to support a newspaper round, no more.
If they are on the list, the world is way way more fked up than I thought.
Mandie, half of Africa's politicians and a big fat Bliar would be nice though.

Now I know you have some dodgy ole legal codes over there in Louis Jim, but would it really stand up in front of a judge to shoot him first and do the investigation after or do you have one them Palin laws where it's ok to shoot anyone you don't like. laugh

Not actually my point. I was referring to him possibly being whacked "out there", not as a court sentence. More importantly than even that was the fact that it was a joke. Steady on. smile

joking aside...

That's the thing though Jim, when people believe in something that evolves into an idea that evolves into an action that realises the intended result, it takes more than a bullet to stop them.

A sanctioned bullet is a temporary strength that superpowers and even lesser nation states have, but it has never found a reliable way of permantly dealing with the David’s when they have a Goliath in their sights.

different perspectives... I was really referring to wikileaks as a single entity being the David. But if anything, I think he is more of a Jesus like figure. anologies to turning over the tables in the temple, a witness to the foresaken, etc...

(I feel a tengent coming on... wink)

From a bloke called Rudolf.

No, that is the man who was fired a few years ago who is helping Assange.

This leak is from someone else.
So Rudolph didn't hold a press conference today at the front line and club and hand over the 2 cds of information saying "here is the data on 2000 accounts which includes 40 politicians"?
Yes he did.

He was still given them by another party.

Representative: "I'm sorry, I cannot divulge information about that customer's secret, illegal account."
[The representative hangs up the phone, then does a double take as he realizes what he just did.]
Representative: "Oh crap, I shouldn't have said he was a customer. Oh crap, I shouldn't have said it was a secret. Oh, crap! I certainly shouldn't have said it was illegal! [sighs resignedly] Oh, it's too hot today."

I love the way "the state" hates Assange but "the people" love him.

In the age of the internet it looks to me like an easy win for the people! The politicians and public figures will be left helpless trying to defend their deceptions.

More and more aggrieved employees will be spilling the beans on their lying and cheating bosses/customers via Wikileaks.

I want to know what this is all about.
Julian Assange Says He Has ‘Insurance Files’ on Rupert Murdoch

Could this be way more damaging that anything that he has released?
