Gillard squirms as Assange Indictment Exposed

Julia Gillard ExposedThe Gillard Labor Government and the Liberal Opposition squirmed today regarding the threat of prosecution in the USA of Julian Assange, who is both an Australian citizen and founder of Wikileaks.

Given the close relationship between Julia Gillard and President Barrack Obama, it is surprising that the Australian government claim complete ignorance of any pending charges against Julian Assange.

Either Australia’s largest ally is keeping the government in the dark, or Julia Gillard is lying. Given the Prime Minister’s recent problems with matters of fact, it would appear that she is again being convenient with her use of language when it comes to matters of fact and truth.

In the Senate today the Greens communications spokesperson, Senator Scott Ludlam, asked Labor Senator Chris Evans – the Prime Ministers representative in the Senate – what the government knew of the currently sealed Grand Jury indictment against Julian Assange.

Gillard involved in Assange Indictment Cover Up ?

Julian AssangeIn the post entitled, Julia Gillard Betrays Australians there is a video of Julian Assange asking questions of the Prime Minister, Julia Gillard, on the ABC television program Q&A.

In the video clip, Julia Gillard, denies having spoken with officials about Julian Assange. However what she didn’t tell us was that while she was rubbing hands with Washington dignitaries, her entourage of Australian government officials were doing the dirty work for her.

It’s been no secret that Julia Gillard dislikes Wikileaks and Julian Assange.

Now the Australian Greens want the answers.

Julia Gillard betrays Australians

Julia Gillard answers Julian AssangeIn March 2011 Julia Gillard appeared on the popular ABC Television program, Q&A.

During this appearance Julian Assange, the leader of Wikileaks, asked Julia Gillard a direct question which she avoided answering truthfully. It is true that under Julia Gillard’s watch that ASIO have been collecting and passing information about Australians involved with Wikileaks to authorities based in the United States of America.

In 2011 Julia Gillard accused Julian Assange and Wikileaks of criminal acts over the release of Diplomatic Cables despite the Australian Federal Police later finding no crime had been committed. She jumped the gun and declared Wikileaks of criminality with no basis for doing so.

In recent times, when Australians have found themselves in trouble overseas, Julia Gillard’s government has shown less support to those people than former governments have over similar issues. Her record on helping Australians overseas is shameful and should be seen as the state of affairs when a Prime Minister lacks backbone.
