GCHQ staff rapped as WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange reveals messages that he's being framed!

[LateX'Dog]

GCHQ, the government's intelligence agency dealing with communications, has asked staff to behave more professionally after Julian Assange obtained internal e-mails saying he may have been framed over charges of sexual assault, The Independent has learned.

The Wikileaks founder, who sought refuge at the Ecuadorian embassy in London after losing his court action against extradition to Sweden to face trial, obtained the material under the Data Protection Act.

In one message in September 2012 a member a GCHQ officer writes to a colleague "They are trying to arrest him on suspicion of XYZ … It is definitely a fit-up… Their timings are too convenient right after Cablegate." Another message, in August last year, does not hold out much hope of him being able to wait out the forces ranged against him. "He reckons he will stay in the Ecuadorian embassy for six to 12 months when the charges against him will be dropped, but that is not really how it works now is it? He's a fool… Yeah … A highly optimistic fool", it states.

Well its nice to get confirmation on something i suspected way before he hauled up in the embassy.

Sadly i fear this will do nothing to help him as the Americans want him regardless of Law and Human Rights.

Eh? These will be internal emails between friends... Just because they come from GCHQ doesn't mean they are any more reliable than a thread on OCUK...

That's why they are being told to be more professional... Or am I missing some sarcasm in your post?

I wonder if they'll get a record deal.

Not if that McDonalds employee was the one he was alleged to have sexually assaulted

Bit bored of assange now, he's just full of crap and thinks he is the greatest scandal since Watergate.

Op does have a track record to follow though...

I'm waiting for a real story, like when he gets put on a plane (European Arrest Warrant) and sent back to Sweden.

Assange is definitely being fitted up by the authorities, but those emails do just look like idle gossip. Even the CIA aren't that incompetent.

Best place for him is on a plane to Sweden.

Aren't incompetent enough to send emails to each other about someone?

Really?

Am I the only one who misread the third word in the title, and thought "how did he manage to do that from there?"

I think the more important issue here is establishing what the ******* obsession with putting "gate" on the end of every controversy

God forbid something happens involving a gate, Gategate!!! Duh duh duuhhhhhh!!!!!

I take it you haven't seen the news recently.

 

[MagicBoy]

Non-story. It's water cooler gossip, nothing more.
