Sverige sägs vara ett kristet land och kristendomen tror inte på det. Att Jesus återuppstod är inte riktigt samma sak. Själv är jag öppen för möjligheten, men har svårt att känna mig övertygad utan någon slags bevis. Rätt typisk svensk med andra ord.

Men oavsett vad man tror eller inte i frågan uppstår ibland tillfälligheter och samband som väl måste beskrivas som lite lustiga. Den brittiska bloggerskan "Fee" har hittat en.

Kolla in bilderna till vänster på Julian Assange och vår egen gamla frihetshjälte Raoul Wallenberg. 

Erkänn att likheten är slående?

Wallenbergfamiljen har ju nämts som en möjlig drivande faktor i Sveriges jakt på Assange. En tanke som faktiskt blir lättare att tro på efter man har läst Johan Wahlbergs artikel om familjen Bonnier , och hur dom till och med kan styra den svenska valutgången. Faniljen Bonnier och familjen Wallenberg är numera i princip en och samma efter  ingiften i olika led.

Några som i alla fall inte tycks vara främmande för tanken att hjältar alltid återföds är siten Return of the revolutionaries . Vad vet man? Kanske det är därför det finns människor som mot allt bättre vetande, ändå är beredda att utstå smutskastning, förnedring, trakasseri och till och med död för att kämpa mot dumhet och diktaturfasoner? Vad tror ni? Skriv gärna.

Bara en liten meningslös parentes, men ibland måste man få skriva sådana också.

Speciellt vill jag tillägna detta inlägg till dom som kallar sig journalister i Sverige. Även poliserna Irmeli Krans och Mats Ghelin, åklagare Marianne Ny och advokat Claes Borgström. En särskild hälsning får även Jan Guillou. Undrar när en stackars  journalist gjorde bort sig så jävligt sist? Det är minst i klass med skivbolagsdirektören som nobbade Beatles för att "Gitarrmusik är ute". Titta på klippet, och titta sedan på det som jag lagt ut under. Det som i Sverige populärt brukar kallas journalism. Jag tror inte det kan bli tydligare än så här.

Den osannolika historien om Omar Khadr - Guantanamos child

Omar Khadrs  historia är betydligt mer skrämmande och blir dessutom alltmer otrolig ju mer man dyker ner i den. 
Omar Khadr är Kanadensisk medborgare och den sista västerlänning som fortfarande hålls inspärrad. Det är inte helt lätt att få klarhet i vad som egentligen är sant i historien om Omar Khadr, men det skall det tydligen heller inte vara om Amerikanska myndigheter får bestämma.

Klart är i alla fall följande. Omar är född 19 September 1986. Han var  15 år då han i Juli  2002 arresterades i Afghanistan. USA anklagade och dömde senare Khadr för 5 krigsbrott!! Bland annat har han dömts av en militärdomstolen på Guantanamo  för att ha dödat en amerikansk soldat i strid mot krigslagarna, ha försett terrorister med "material support" och spionerat.  

Omar var den näst yngste av sina bröder. Hans pappa Heter Ahmed och var en egyptier som flyttat till Kanada och studerat. Omar är därmed Kanadensisk medborgare. Omars pappa dödades i Pakistan under en eldstrid med polisen 2003. Omars mamma är palestinier och bor för närvarande i Toronto i Canada. Under sovjets ockupation av Afghanistan åkte Omars föräldrar dit och arbetade som hjälparbetare. Hjälporganisationen var dock en front för Al Quaida har det uppgetts från myndigheter.  Omar däremot har växt upp mestadels i Kanada och pratar fortfarande om Toronto som "hemma". Efter Sovjets uttåg stannade hans mamma och pappa i landet och sägs då ha haft nära kontakter med toppskiktet i Al Quaida. Pappan påstås bland annat varit nära vän till självaste Usama Bin Laden. Denna mytiska skäggfigur som måste ha hittat en sjuhelvetes djup och väl dold grotta i Tora Bora bergen.  Detta är en i alla fall en del av vad som framkommer i bland annat Omars Khadrs fil.

Det enda barn som dömts för krigsbrott - någonsin

Omar är den ende krigsfånge  under 18 år som någonsin år som stått inför en krigsbrottstribunal och dessutom dömts. Omar var ett barn. Ett barn som om den officiella historien stämmer, skall ha växt upp, pendlandes mellan Kanda, Pakistan och  ett Al Quaida träningsläger i Afghanistan, där han i så fall omöjligt kunnat värja sig från att bli "terrorist". Hans bror har sagt i en intervju i 60 minutes att Omar aldrig deltog i några strider, utan användes som engelsk tolk. Omar nekade ihärdigt till alla anklagelsepunkter ända fram till militärrättegången på Guantanamo. Där tvärvänder han dock plötsligt och erkänner plötsligt med nedböjt huvud och med viskande röst att han är skyldig på samtliga punkter. 

Detta barn hade alltså trots USA:s tuffa förhörsmetoder, och tortyr in i det längsta nekat till de brott han anklagades för, men plötsligt ohotad  under en paus i rättegången sägs Omar plötsligt alltså ha brutit samman och erkänt alltihop? Straffet blev hyfsat "milt" med tanke på brottsrubriceringarna. Endast åtta års fängelse. Dessutom med rätt att avtjäna de sista året i ett Kanadensiskt fängelse.  Åklagarsidan nekar dock bestämt till att ha påverkat Khadr genom varken hot eller löften. Rätt självklart eftersom det ju absolut inte är tillåtet.

Khadrs kanadensiske advokat Dennis Edney menade dock att erkännandet tvingats fram genom påtryckningar och hot om livstidsstraff på Guantanamo  från en desperat åklagare, satt under hård press uppifrån att fälla Omar. 
Edney:
"Omar Khadr hade under det hotet erkänt sig skyldig till mordet på John F Kennedy, om det betydde att han kunde få slippa ut från det där helveteshålet. Han dömdes dessutom på bevis som aldrig hade godkänts av en civil domstol" .

Omar Khadr  sägs under  2002 under en eldstrid med  en Amerikansk Delta Force styrka ha blivit skjuten med flera skott, varefter han tillfångatagits och transporterats till Kuba via Bagram airbase.

"Vi bombade det där huset i en timme"

Hur allt egentligen gått till är rätt svårt att få grepp om då man läser alla olika redogörelser för vad som hände. Enligt Layne Morris, en av soldaterna  som deltog i operationen skall dock följande ha utspelat sig:

Man fick ett samtal från NSA som hade plockat upp en signal från en satellit telefon. NSA hade lokaliserat platsen för signalen varpå bl a personal från Delta Force sändes ut tillsammans med soldater från den lokala Afghanska armén. Framme på platsen i byn Abu Ykhiel i närheten av gränsen till Pakistan fann dom det lerhus där Omar sägs ha tillfångatagits. Man kunde genom grinden se totalt sex män inne i byggnaden. "Dom var välklädda och välgödda, man såg direkt att dom inte var några vanliga Afghanska bönder" säger Layne Morris som deltog i operationen. 

Man beordrade männen med hjälp av de afghanska soldaterna  att komma ut med hjälp av en en högtalaranläggning. Minutrarna gick men ingen kom. Då gick de två afghanska militärerna fram för att övertga männen att ge upp, men när dom passerat grinden sköts dom ner på fläcken. Därefter inleds en våldsam kanonad mot byggnaden. Magasin töms, handgranater kastas, och luftförstärning kallas in. "Vi bombade det där huset i en timme, när vi var klara återstod inte mycket av det. Vi trodde alla därinne var döda" uppger Morris.  Själv hade han skadats av splitter i ögat och togs därför ifrån platsen innan man gick in. 

Vad som därefter hände är höljt i dunkel. Åklagarens version är denna  "När soldaterna gick in i byggnaden för att kontrollera uppenbarade sig plötsligt Khadr från ruinerna och kastade granaten som sårade och 10 dagar senare  dödade Sergeant Christpher Speer"

Khadrs kanadensiske försvarare lade emellertid fram  bevis för att det  fanns ytterligare en överlevare som kunde ha kastat granaten.

Beviset som åklagaren menar pekar ut Omar som granatslängande soldatmördare, var först alltså att han skulle ha varit den ende som mirakulöst överlevt den massiva bombningen av lerhuset.  Detta är inte sant, vilket åklagaren, Major Jeff  Groharing rimligtvis rerdan visste. Det visas nämligen av det hemligstämplade dokument som av en händelse råkade läcka ut från Khadrs försvarsteam. Där vittnar en den medlem av Delta Force styrkan som säger sig ha skjutit Omar, att efter granaten kastades, så sköt han först en annan man först med två kulor i bröstet och därefter med en kula i huvudet. Därefter sköt han enligt egen utsago Omar Khadr med flera skott. (Dokumentet finns för nedladdning längst ner i inlägget)

Enligt andra källor däremot så pågick bombningen av huset i fyra timmar, och det har även hävdats att den officiella historien om hur Omar togs tillfånga är rena skrönan. Mer om detta senare.

Åklagarens påståenden stämmer bevisligen inte

Åklagaren, ställd inför faktum ändrade sig då plötsligt. 

"Vi har aldrig påstått att Khadr var den ende som var vid liv. Däremot var den andre kombatanten så svårt skadad att han inte kan ha kastat granaten. Man fann dessutom då man sökte igenom byggnaden en videofilm som visar Khadr och de andra männen arbetandes med att tillverka bomber. Dessutom har Omar Khadr erkänt gärningen i de inledande förhören sades det då istället". 

Detta var alltså den samlade bevisningen mot 15 år gamla Omar Khadr som nu suttit inspärrad i 10 år.

Den videofilm åklagaren hänvisar till har aldrig offentliggjorts. Dessutom stämmer  åklagarens påstående om "den andre mannens skador" inte heller enligt det vittnesmål som läckt ut från den inblandade soldaten. Där står det rätt klart att den andre mannen sköts i bröstet först efter att granaten kastats.

 (Länk till vittnesmålet i slutet av inlägget).

När man dessutom läser Omar Khadrs egen skräckberättelse för hur han behandlats av sina fångvaktare, först på Bagram airbase, och senare på Guantanamo så är det inte heller svårt att förstå varför denne 15 åring kan ha känt sig frestad att erkänna i de inledande förhören. Det är så obeskrivligt vidrigt att det är svårt att ta in.  Han säger sig bland annat ha blivit spottad i ansiktet, hotad med våldtäkt och tvingad att, fortfarande svårt skadad skrubba golv på alla fyra. Under ett förhör  träddes en huva för hans ansikte varefter man tog in vilt skällande hundar i förhörsrummet. 
På Guamtanamo tvingades han att bära en mask som gjorde det så svårt att andas att han till slut svimmade. 

(Även detta dokument finns för nedladdning längst ned i detta inlägg).

Kan man lita på ett enda ord från våra regeringar och deras finansägda mediaknähundar?

Det finns inga bevis för att Omars anklagelser om tortyr  stämmer. Han uppvisar inga fysiska skador som kan härledas till tortyr. En film som hans försvarare lyckats komma över visar dock delar ur ett samtal som hölls med Omar sju månader efter han tillfångatogs. Den han talar med är ett sändebud från de Kanadensiska myndigheterna. Dessa verkar dock inte heller ha lagt särskilt mycket kraft på att hjälpa sin medborgare. Omars försvarare stämde den kanadensiska staten och fick därmed tillgång till filmerna. Dock inte förrän myndigheterna först klippt bort valda delar.

I dessa filmer ses också exempel på det jag talade om innan. Representanter för human rights organisationer som vittnar om att hela den officiella historien om Omar Khadr är ett rent påhitt av myndigheterna. Ärligt talat börjar det bli svårt att veta vad man skall tro på snart.

På filmen ses bland annat hur Omar gråtande försöker övertyga det Kanadensiske sändebudet om den grymma behandling han utsatts för.

Är det här den "vackra" demokrati som hundratusentals dödats för?

Är det så här muslimska terrorister skall övertygas om att dom har fel när dom ser USA som "den store satan"? Hade det inte varit bättre att bevisa att dom blivit lurade och hjärntvättade genom att visa att det dom blivit itutade inte är sant? Och om man kan behandla svårt skadade barn på det här sättet, oavsett vad man tror dom gjort, har man inte då förtjänat epitetet?

Det här visar  att USA inte bara hållit flera barn fängslade sedan 2002. Möjligen har man till och med torterat dom,  ställt ett av dom inför en krigsbrottstribunal och under hot tvingat fram ett erkännande i strid mot både barnkonventioner, mänskliga rättigheter för att inte tala om allmän hederlighet och mänsklighet. Man har därutöver negligerat och försökt mörka bevis som visat rimliga tvivel gällande mord. Det allvarligaste av dom krigsbrott Omar anklagats för. Det hela påminner faktiskt en hel del om vår egen rättsstats nuvarande metoder. 

Om man antar att den officiella historien, huruvida osannolik ändå är sann. Är det ändå inte på gränsen till tragikomiskt att när Amerikanska soldater på avstånd bombar ett hus med människor och barn sönder och samman i minst en timme, så kallas det för en laglig krigshandling, men om en pojke, 15 år gammal som på något mirakulöst sätt överlever, kastar en granat på soldaterna som gjort detta. Då kallas det plötsligt mord och  krigsbrott?

Är detta den demokrati som kostat minst 109 000 Irakier livet? Varav minst 60 procent civila? Är detta den demokrati som 4450 amerikanska soldater dött,  och över 100 000 skadats i Irak för att försvara? Som kostat 348 journalister livet? Är detta den demokrati som kostat ytterligare 1544 amerikanska soldaters liv och gud vet hur många afghaners liv i Aghanistan?  Är detta den demokrati som två unga svenska män hittills har gett sina liv för att försvara?  

När skall dom verkliga mördarna dömas?

När får vi se dom verkliga brottslingarna inför en krigsrättstribunal? Hur länge skall hjälten som gav oss sanningen tillåtas torteras i ett amerikanskt fängelse? Och hur länge tänker Sverige skämma ut sig genom att lägga sig platt för dessa massmördare? Vi  till och med hjälper dom att tysta den man som gjort sanningen tillgänglig för oss genom påhittat trams om sexbrott.

Det verkar inte finnas minsta ryggrad kvar längre i det här landet? Jag saknar Olof Palme. Jag tror nämligen inte han hade tvekat att kliva upp i riksdagens talarstol och kalla nedanstående herrar för vad dom är. Satans mördare!

Noone living in Sweden can have missed the news about the swedish woman who was raped in Greece and then charged with falsely accusing a man.

The swedish media is outraged about this violation of "human rights" as they wish to see it. And when the Swedish media get outraged, so does the Swedes. At least the big majority that have not yet grasped that they are not telling us the truth. Just their interpretation of it.  

Her swedish lawyer Gunilla Von Wachenfeldt says that the Greek allegations are based on an incident during her interrogation without an interpreter. I thought she filed the report in Sweden? And what was the incident? I still have not seen one single swedish reporter ask that question.

A woman has been falsly accused, man all battlestations!

A woman says she is being falsly accused of being a false accuser. And the shit hits the fan, as it always does when a woman is treated unfairly in Sweden. It becomes a diplomatic crises. The media is appalled, the Swedish politicians almost shit themselves in anger. Eva Britt Dahlström, European parliament president for women' s rights have gone to the EU commission and are talking about contacting the Greek government on behalf of the woman. A greek diplomat gets fired for writing his oponion on how swedish women behave abroad.


Svenska dagbladet writes that the Greeks lie, there is no such thing as a rape insurance. That is a good example of the media writing "half truths". No there is no rape insurance as such, but there is however a special insurance that you can add to your home insurance. And that will give a woman over a 100 000 SEK for just reporting a rape when vacationing abroad. Swedish insurance companies Folksam and Trygg Hansa spoke about this all ready back in 2006, saying it was becoming a growing problem. "Since the rape laws were made more severe in 2005, the insurance claims have doubled" says Claes Caroli on Trygg Hansa. And reports of rape from women on vacation was between 5-10 a year according to this article.

Now the same companies says it's only 1-2 cases a year? That should be great news? It must mean that Greek men have become much less prone to rape.Why are so many talking about boycotting Greece then?

Is Sweden the country to talk about human rights?

And in England a man still sits incarsorated waiting to be brought to Sweden on a rapecharge that everyone with half a brain now understand is a perfect example of false accusations. 

Not by the women however, they didn't even understand themselves they had been raped until their lawyer told them so. Now he is Internationally wanted by the Swedish law. The Swedish prosecutor issued an arrest warrant with a red flag. Apparently the one issued for Moammar Khadaffi is only orange. Hypocrisy anyone?

If Anna is a real victim of rape she should stand next to us falsely accused on the barricades. There is a reason Swedish women like Anna have lost their credibility. If you cry wolf too many times noone will come. Maybe Anna and feminist media should focus on that for once? Or do they honestly believe that there aren't any women that abuse our system of trust? According to sources within the Swedish police, as many as eight out of ten rape accusations are made up! Thats 80 percent! 

But instead they are directing their hatred against men as the Greek diplomat for just saying out loud what needs to be said. Women that stoop so low as reporting an innocent man should be ashamed.  They are the real reason Anna is doubted, not a Greek diplomat or the Greek government. Who doesn't agree?

Unicef says "for every kid", but they always seem to forget quite a large group

Every year in April UNICEF launches a big campaign to raise money in Sweden. They call it "For every kid". They make flashy TV ads and broadcast them around the clock. Big advertisements in the press, a huge tent in the middle of Stockholm where the punters can meet the celebrities that are working as UNICEF ambassadors. 

But UNICEF has never done a single thing to help my child that lost her father after false abuse accusations against him. Rather the opposite. If you Google UNICEF and "mens violence" (in Swedish and brackets) you get 3 150 hits. If you then change "mens violence" to "fatherless", you get 24. And none of them are from the organisation itself. If you google the words "effects of losing a parent" you get 160 million hits. In Sweden that is the reality for hundreds of thousands of children. My daughter is just one of these children that gets abused with total impunity. What about them UNICEF? Why don't you include my daughter in "Every kid"?

I am sure that UNICEF does a lot to help children, especially in the dirt  poor contries, and I applaud that. But my child has been made fatherless by exactly the type of propaganda that UNICEF is spreading with some of all the money people are giving. Tell me, why should I buy a UNICEF pin and put on my jacket? Why would I support an organisation that enables exactly the kind of abuse my child is subjected to? 

Why should I become a world parent when I am not even allowed to be a father to my own child? And if the world needs more parents, why won´t UNICEF start by seeing to it that the ones who really want to be parents and are highly qualified, are allowed to?

These are truly honest questions and I would really appreciate an answer from someone within the organisation. At least it doesn't hurt to ask.

April 18, 2011
Source: Legally yours
Wikileaks-founder Julian Assange is very critical of how the Swedish authorities have handled the investigation of sex crimes charges against him. He is supported by one-third of the lawyers who responded to a questionnaire. 

Swedeish legal magazine Legally Yours magazine in its latest issue, asked swedish lawyers what they think about the Swedish legal system's handling of the Julian Assange, accused of rape and sexualassault in connection with a visit to Sweden last year.

31,9 percent of Swedish lawyers critical 

Assange and his counsel have directed strong criticism against the Swedish legalsystem, which among other things 
has not given Assange full access to the evidence, 
leaked his identity to the media, '
not translated the evidence into English and ¨
Did not administer the european arrest warrant in a correct way 
let a police who was friends with one of the accusers receive the notification.

Almost one-third, 31.9 percent of the participants in Legally Yours survey responded that they agreed with the Assanges criticism.


That is pretty alarming numbers.

The survey has gone out via the web to 9176 lawyers and 2221 responded, a responserate of 24 percent.

In other words, not only do you stand a high risk of getting locked away for very long. Once you have been, there is no way of getting out. Swedens worst "serialkiller" Tomas Quick  has managed to get a retrial and so far been acquitted  in two of the murders he was convicted for. 6 to go. 

By now most people understand that this gut have spent most of his life locked up, without commiting a singel murder.  Framed by a corrupt prosecutor Christer Van Der Kwast,  working together with the police Seppo Pentinän, who hid 13 full folders with freeing evidence,  the chief psychologist Birgitta Ståhle, who subjected Tomas to regressioen therapy to unlock hidden memories, and perhaps the worst of the all. Tomas defense attourney!! (yes you heard correctly) to put this former poor delusional  drug addict away for life. Convicted of 8 murders, and not a single evidence. As long as he kept confessing, the police and the psychiatrists kept feeding him the drugs he needed.

You would think that any decent lawyer would have had a field days with this absolutely redicoulous case, but Tomas Quicks Lawyer instead colluded with the prosecutor to make sure his client would be convicted?? His explanation: Well..he wanted to be convicted, and I have to follow my clients will.

Christ the guy was kept heavily sedated with Stesolid, Xanor, and god knows what ellse. If he refused to confess, or didn't further incriminate himself, his drugges were revoked. These are some of the most addictive drugs ever made.

Tomas Quicks lawyers name? Claes Borgström. Does it sound familiar?
The guy that eventually helped Tomas Quick  was a reporter at SVT by the name of Hannes Råstam. He made three absolutely fascinating documentaries about the case. You just cant believe your eyes watching them. I have only seen the first two though. The third one was censored by the state review board for a reason noone really uinderstand. 

This is Swedens probably worst justice debacle ever. That doesn't mean though its the only one. No far from it.

Another Swedish state feminist myth can now be debunked thanks to the reader "Diogenes Sinope" that sent me some research he or she had done. It's true that while Sweden may have a much higher percentage of reported rapes, we are still not convicting more people for it. Right? Wrong! 

We often get to hear that Sweden does not have a good record of prosecuting rape cases, but this is not borne out by the statistics.
 
Sweden has a very high number of reported rapes: 46.5 per 100,000 members of the population, which is far above all other European countries. Sweden surpasses Iceland, with 36, and England (including Wales), with 26.
 
There is some debate about the reason for these high figures, but most people accept that it is not because Swedish men are particularly prone to rape, and getting more and more prone to it as the years pass. Rather, the probable explanation is that Swedish women are more likely to report rape.
 
What is not often highlighted is the fact that Sweden still manages to achieve convictions in a relatively large proportion of rape cases.
 
Based on 2007 figures, Sweden’s rape convictions per head of population were three or four times above the European average. In other words, Sweden convicted men of rape three or four times more often than the European average. That’s pretty high!

Swedish men three times more prone to rape than the Brittish

Analysing some more recent statistics from 2009 confirms this. The figures show that in Sweden there are 46.5 reports of rape per 100,000 members of the population, while in England there are 26 reports of rape. Sweden has a conviction rate of 10% - that is, 10% of reported rapes result in a conviction. England, by contrast, has a conviction rate of 6% (see Stern Review of Rape Reporting, page 43)
 
That means that in Sweden 4.65 people are convicted of rape per 100,000 members of the population, while in England only 1.56 are convicted. So,Sweden has almost three times more rape convictions than England per head of population.

Or could there be another explanation? 

How has Sweden managed to achieve this, when it is notoriously difficult to prosecute rape cases? Are Sweden’s police and prosecutors especially efficient? They might be, but still, the problems of prosecuting rape are the same the world over – in particular the lack of evidence apart from the word of the alleged victim.

The most likely explanation for Sweden’s impressive performance is that it is simply easier to convict for rape in Sweden because the burden of proof has been placed so low. The word of the accuser alone is often enough to convict, which has obviously resulted in a high number of people being found guilty.
 

Finally a big thanks to "Sinope" for todays post and a word of advice to male foreigners visiting our country. Do not engage in any heterosexual activities while you are here. You stand a good chanse of ending up behind bars. 

A womans word is all it takes.  And the burden of proving your innocence lies solely on you. And even if you should succeed chances are that they will send you away anyway. So you gotta ask yourself. Is a few minutes in heaven worth a couple of years in hell?

An extensive timeline that aims to highlight the Julian Assange affair. Especially Swedens role in it. 

To search: hold in *Ctrl* and press *F*. Then type in search or keyword.

No theories, no speculation, just plain facts. Pieces of a puzzle buildt mainly from the big timeline done by Operation want. The parts in red have been added. I doubt the whole truth about the Julian Assange affair will ever be made public. But there should certainly be enough facts in this timeline to keep hordes of nosy journalists busy for a long time.

This timeline is of course still lacking a lot of bits and pieces here and there. Hopefully though everyone will find bits of information in it, still new to them. I will of course add new relevant information to it as often as possible. Everyone reading this that has information should feel free to share it here.

Regarding the information about the Swedish corporation Investor AB and it's owners in the mighty Swedish Wallenberg family , the possible connection is explained in further detail on the official Anonymous operation want homepage. http://e-worldwar.com/~/index.php/politics/opwant

This is truly an intriguing story when you read it in a somewhat chronological order. I do not claim that all facts and events stated below are related to Julian Assange and the way he has been handled by swedish authorities. Not many have that information, and the few that do will never willingly share it, These are just facts. The reader will have to draw their own conclusions. 

The absurdity of this case is nothing new to all of us that previously have become victims of a swedish justice system that is suffering from severe genderbias and corruption, but it gives us a bit of hope that it is visualised in this way. A justice system is something not many care about until the day they themselves get a taste of it. In Sweden as in most democracies the absolute majority never will. That is probably the biggest reason it can go on like this year after year. No one cares about the cries for justice from inside Swedish jails. The day it happens to you, you will be powerless.

The "Afghan War Diary" is a compilation of documents and reports, covering the war in Afghanistan back to 2004. [8]

In early August, Julian Assange goes to Sweden, possibly to explore basing the organization there. Sweden has very good journalistic shield and media protection laws. Iceland had been the previous base—and a WikiLeaks holding company, Sunshine Press, is still based there. By Assange’s account, the sway of the US over Iceland’s politics made the country unsuitable for the organisation.[9]

August 11th Julian Assange arrives in Stockholm, Sweden. Anna Ardin offers him accommodation in her apartment while she is out of town.[10]

August 12th Reporter Without Boarders, a National Endowment for Democracy funded front group, sends an open letter to Assange: ‘‘A bad precedent for the Internet’s future’’.[11] [98]

August 13th Assange moves into Ardin’s Stockholm apartment. [97]

August 14th Anna Ardin returns home early and goes out to dinner with Assange.
Later they have sex.[12]

August 15th Assange delivers his seminar speech and meets Sofia Wilen who tags along for lunch with friends. That evening, Ardin hosts a party for Assange at her home. From the party Ardin tweets, “i’m with the most important, exciting people in the world”. Assange texts Wilen from the party. [13]

August 16th Assange goes on the train with Wilen to her apartment Enkoping (Ardin is out of Stockholm during the week) and stays the night. It is the events of this night that will form the basis of the complaint to the police in Wilen’s name. Wilen will later tell police that Assange spent most of the train trip ignoring her and checking his computer [14]

August 17th Mr. Assange reportedly has sex with Wilen[15] Assange Accepts a Job at
the Aftonbladet [127]

August 18th Ardin tells Assange that he is no longer welcome to stay in her apartment. Assange refuses to leave and does not depart until Friday August 20. [99] Mr. Assange applies for a residence permit to live and work in Sweden. [16] The Pirate Party announces that it will host several new Wikileaks servers. [17] Anna Ardin holds a party for liberation of Islam & Politics.[18]

August 18th or the 19th Ardin and Wilen exchanged texts and arrange to meet. [19] (Unconfirmed: tweets from Wilen are made at this time regarding the events of the previous days. Wilen’s internet presence later disappears so completely that Swedish hacker sites conclude that a professional clean-up job has been performed) [100]

August 20th Ardin and Wilen go to Klara police station in Stockholm to make inquiries about the possibility of forcing Assange to take an STI test. The visit results in charges being filed against Assange. [20] 

Police woman Irmeli Krans, (later confirmed to be a personal friend and socialdemocrat party colleague with Anna Ardin, Claes Borgström and his business partner Tomas Bodström), starts the interrogation, but before it is finished, policewoman Linda Wassgren calls the prosecutor Maria Häljebo Kjellstrand and arranges the arrest (anhållan) of Julian Assange. 

Maria Häljebo Kjellstrand, unlawfully told the press that Julian was wanted for rape (reported in the tabloid Expressen, owned by Bonniers AB, part of the Investor group. Bonnier AB  also own Swedish newspapers Dagens Nyheter, Dagens industri, Sydsvenska dagbladet, Ystad allehanda, Trelleborgs allehanda, Kristianstadsbladet and are part owner of TV channel TV4 ).

Kjellstrand was replaced the next day by prosecutor Eva Finné who invalidated the arrest and stated that the interrogation report showed that no crime had been committed.  Not even the weaker of the possible charges. She states that the original interrogation report of Sofia Wilén shows that there was no crime described. This original interrogation was later said to be  lost or deleted, and it was never signed by Sofia Wilén.  (the interrogation was never finished, Sofia Wiléns distress on hearing about the arrest and rape charge towards Julian Assange made her unable to concentrate.) 

Monday the 25th August, two days after the interrogation Irmeli Krans could no longer access the protocol in the police computer system Dur 2. Mats Ghelin then orders Irmeli Krans to write a new report of the above interrogation of Sofia Wilen. (precise references to the original report https://www.flashback.org/sp28605042)

There were early rumors of an internal promemoria among the police protesting the rape charge. This protest was probably coming from Irmeli Krans. Probably, and speculatively, the whole affair at this moment was grasped from the control of Anna Ardin and Irmeli Krans, and into the hands of policeman Mats Gehlin. The same Mats Gehlin that become leader of the investigation from now on, and that continuosly leaks material to the press, and makes public statements to the press where he critisizes prosecutor Eva Finné.

Before Julian himself had been informed. the Prosecutor contravened Swedish privacy and secrecy law, which protects the confidentiality of preliminary criminal investigations and is supposed toprotect those being investigated from adverse and prejudicial media coverage. A complaint was made about the Prosecutor’s illegal act to the Judicial Ombudsman but no action was taken. [21]

Mr Assanges swedish laqwyer Björn Hurtig applied for disclosure of the police file in September and November 2010. Both requests for disclosure were denied by the Prosecutor, Ms Ny, despite the
fact that some of this material had already been provided to the press.[103]

August 21st The arrest warrant is withdrawn. Chief Prosecutor of Stockholm, Eva Finne, threw out the rape charge after reviewing the police file and the statements of the two women. The investigation continued on lesser allegations of harassment only. [22]

Ardin gives an anonymous interview to swedish tabloid Aftonbladet [24] 

August 22st "It is clearly a smear campaign ... the only question is who was involved. We can have some suspicions about who would benefit, but without direct evidence I would not be willing to make a direct allegation." [25]

The lawyer for the two women, Claes Borgstrom, was retained by his clients on August 22nd. This was a Sunday. A high profile lawyer like Claes Borgström would normaly be very hard to reach for any client on a Sunday.  This means either Anna Ardin reached him via her political contacts, or he saw the case and jumped on it himself. 

At this time though, all  suspicions of criminal wrongdoing had been dropped against Julian. That means that the women did not have the right to retain a free public attorney as plaintiffs. That right was given to them first on September 1st, when Marianne Ny reopened the case.

Claes Borgström,  must therefore have been retained as a defence attorney by the women on Sunday the 22nd. Why? Was it anger over Eva Finnés decision to drop the charges? No. That question is answered by Claes Borgström himself in Washington post:'Asked whose initiative it was to appeal - his or the women's - Borgström demurred, citing client confidentiality. However, he said the women didn't even know it was possible to appeal a prosecutor's decision until he told them.'
So for some unknown reason the women, on Sunday the 22, one day after Eva Finnés decision to drop the rape charges, privately hired a very expensive defence attorney, and  in such a hurry it couldn't even wait until monday. 


August 23rd Anna Ardin reported to be on sick leave.[26]

August 24 th Swedish (socialdemocrat) feminist blog Rebella, which is run by Ardin and others, posts a long article by Sara Gunnerud entitled “even Wikileaks heroes can do crappy things”. [27] During this week, there is a great deal of blogosphere attention to an item on Ardin’s blog, a “7-step guide to revenge on ex-lovers”. [28] 

The Rebella blogarticle was later edited by Sara Gunnerud. She states her reasons in an e-mail: "This article has gotten a lot of readers and attention, and the first version, I think took  what the women say they have endured a bit too lightly. Hence the change. It was a while ago now, but I seem to recall that it was in early December. "


The original version:

This can involve something as simple as two women who wanted to find out if it was possible to make someone get tested for sexually transmitted diseases. And police officers that did their jobs and saw something wrong in the women's story about  a sexual partner who ignored their agreement on protected sex with condoms without their knowledge or consent.

Later became:

This can involve something as simple as two women who wanted to stand up for their right to their bodies, who did not accept sexual abuse and therefore reported it.

Probably the change was made to harmonize with the nationwide #prataomdet (#talk about it) campaign that appeared a few days after the editing of the blog.
August 27th Claes Borgström lodges an appeal to a special department in the public prosecutions office. Mr Borgstrom is a Social Democrat politician who was, at that time, campaigning for election in the election to be held the following month (September 2010) and whose political platform and reputation is closely associated with sexual offence law reform. [23] [102]

Claes Borgstrom is a business partner of Thomas Bodstrom who as the former justice minister that was involved in the secret, high-level Swedish cooperation with the CIA in handing over asylum seekers to be tortured in Egypt in the CIA rendition programme. [108]


August 30th Borgstrom approached Marianne Ny, who is the head of a special unit in
Gothenburg, Sweden’s second city, 200 kilometers from Stockholm. Ny heads a special “crime development unit” and is a specialist in the development of sex crime law. [29] 

Marianne Ny at this time no longer work as an operative prosecutor. That she personally takes on a case is very rear. This was the only one in 2010. Ms Ny was also a member of the state appointed committee who in 2008 made a preparatory legislation regarding harder sexlaws in Sweden. 

Some suggestions by the commitee were: 

• Definition of rape extended to more cases of sexual exploits.
  
• A completely new and consent-based crime is introduced
• The scope of the crime child rape extended
• penalties for sexual exploitation of children and aggravated sexual abuse of children are tightened, 
• The definition of sexual harassment considerably extended

Marianne Ny and Claes Borgström obviously knows eachother from before. They have both been very politically active in the lobby that successfully have campaigned for harder sexlaws. In 2007 Marianne Ny invited Claes Borgström to hold a lecture in a government funded project concerning sex crime victims.
 
August 31st  Assange is questioned by police for about an hour in Stockholm and formally told of the allegations against him.[30] Assange applies for a work and residency permit in Sweden. The permit would be essential to his plan to found WikiLeaks as a media company in Sweden, with full
protection of media shield laws. [107] 

Some day during this week Claes Borgström contacts Marianne Ny and ask her hold off the decision about reopening the rapecase since "new material" had been found and sent to the state crime lab in Linköping. This later turned out to be the broken condom that was allegedly used by Julian Assange on the 14th of August . For some reason Anna Ardin still was in possession of it after 12 days. The condom showed no trace of DNA from Julian Assange.  And what is even more conspicuous is the it did not show any trace of DNA from Ms Ardin either. Witch is absolutely impossible had this condom actually been used the way she claims.

September 1st Director of Prosecutions Marianne Ny says she is reopening the rape investigation against Mr. Assange.[31] The Prosecution continued to provide information about the preliminary investigation to the press. Expressen applied for access to the police file on 1 September and this
was granted: redacted versions of Julian’s statement and emails between the police and prosecutor were provided to the press shortly thereafter. [101] At some point in September, Ardin deleted from her blog the seven-step guide to get revenge on a ex-lover. [32]

September 7th Birgitta Jonsdottir says Assange should step aside as a spokesman forWikileaks.[33]
Swedish police raided seven locations, including PRQ, a Swedish Internet service provider believed to be the Internet service provider for The Pirate Bay, a popular BitTorrent search engine, and Wikileaks, a site dedicated to receiving information from whistle-blowers. [34]

September 19th Swedish national election are held. The winning Moderate party is a client of former chief of staff in the Bush administration Karl Rove [109]
Sofia Wiléns aunt is reportedly Marie Wilén. She was a Member of Parliament (centerpartiet) 1994 - 1998 and thus she knows Elisabeth Thand Ringqvist, a member of the Centre party's board in 1998, and later kanslichéf (chief of staff). Thand Ringkvist is now a senior consultant for Prime PR and appeared at Primes (anti-) Wikileaks seminar on December 15. Prime is the same PR firm that was seen working with Karl Rove in the election campaign for Moderaterna. The party of Swedish Prime minister Fredrik Reinfeldt.

The relationship between Prime and Karl Rove is established.

He stated private family reasons. He has now decided to stay there permanently.

criminal behavior.[52]

"Often the best source of information about waste, fraud, and abuse in government, is an existing government employee committed to public integrity and willing to speak out. Such acts of courage and patriotism, which can sometimes save lives and often save taxpayer dollars, should be encouraged rather than stifled." 

Right now, Wikileaks whistleblower Bradley Manning is being tortured in a US military prison for showing exactly this kind of valor and courage. 117 781 people has so far signed the Avaaz petition to stop the torture of Bradley Manning. I urge all of you to do the same. 

Manning is subjected to utter isolation that can drive many people insane, with short periods each day where he is stripped naked and abused by jeering inmates. 

Intimidation campaign

Manning is awaiting trial for releasing secret military documents to Wikileaks – including a video of US soldiers massacring Iraqi civilians. And his brutal treatment appears to be part of an intimidation campaign to silence whistleblowers and crack down on Wikileaks. The US government is split on this issue, with diplomats publicly criticizing the military for Manning's treatment, but President Obama has stood aside so far. 

Obama cares about the US's global reputation - we need to show him that it's at stake here. Let's build a massive global call to the US government to stop torturing Manning and uphold the law. Sign the petition below -- our message will be delivered through hard-hitting ads and actions in Washington DC as soon as we reach 250,000 signatures: 

Cruel and unusual punishment is unconstitutional in all democratic states

On paper the United States opposes torture. The US Constitution forbids “cruel and unusual punishment". And, along with almost a hundred other countries, the US has signed an international convention promising to treat all prisoners “with humanity and with respect for the inherent dignity of the human person”. But today, Bradley Manning is utterly isolated in a cell without sheets, not allowed to exercise and is being subjected to brutal humiliation that is causing serious mental harm. This violates US and international law. 

Bradley is being held under 'prevention of injury' status despite 16 reports from military mental health professionals that he should be removed from these severe conditions. His lawyers are trying to enforce his basic Constitutional and international human rights in court, but so far the military tribunal responsible for Bradley’s fate has ignored his suffering.   

They want Manning to implicate Julian Assange

Former president George W Bush said that history would be his judge. So far when it comes to closed military tribunals, secret detention centers, illegal torture, illegal surveillance,  holding prisoners without trial and lying to the people, the new administration gives W straight A:s. 

But is it legal? Can we really do that to people? YES WE CAN!

There has been a crack down on Wikileaks since the explosive revelations of US military crimes in Afghanistan and Iraq. Many speculate that this brutal pressure on Bradley is intended to force him to implicate WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. But Obama promised Americans and the world that he would protect, not persecute, whistleblowers: 


Bradley's cruel treatment does exactly the opposite and sends a chilling message to others who may want to expose important information. Let's act quickly to put massive international pressure on the United States government to honor its commitment to human rights and the protection of whistleblowers and end the shockingly cruel treatment of their own citizen. Sign the petition!! 

Manning: The world had a right to know

Bradley Manning claims he is a patriot and has admitted to releasing information that he felt the world had a right to know. 

While reasonable people can argue about the approach of Wikileaks and the the rights or wrongs of those who delivered information to them, the illegal torture of Bradley Manning, who has yet to receive a fair trial or be convicted of any crime, is a shameful violation of human rights and human dignity.

Bradley Manning: charge sheet

The support for Bradley Manning is strong also in the United States.
One group that is vividly starting to question the treatment of private Manning are his fellow veterans of the United states armed forces. 

This is a recent letter to the Quantico marine base commander. The one writing is  former Quantico commander and Korean war veteran David C. MacMichael. The man that blew the whistle in the Iran-contras scandal. 

One has to ask. How much humiliation can the US and Swedish governments take? Do they really think it's possible to put the genie back in the bottle once it's out? They are knee deep in shit and yet they don't even seem to be able to smell it. Astonishing!

From David C. MacMichael. January 19, 2011
Dear Commandant of the Marine Corps General James F. Amos:

As a former regular Marine Corps captain, a Korean War combat veteran, now retired on Veterans Administration disability due to wounds suffered during that conflict, I write you to protest and express concern about the confinement in the Quantico Marine Corps Base brig of US Army Pfc. Bradley Manning.

Manning, if the information I have is correct, is charged with having violated provisions of the Uniform Code of Military Justice by providing to unauthorized persons, among them specifically one Julian Assange and his organization Wikileaks, classified information relating to US military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan and State Department communications. This seems straightforward enough and sufficient to have Manning court-martialed and if found guilty sentenced in accordance with the UCMJ.

What concerns me here, and I hasten to admit that I respect Manning’s motives, is the manner in which the legal action against him is being conducted. I wonder, in the first place, why an Army enlisted man is being held in a Marine Corps installation. Second, I question the length of confinement prior to conduct of court-martial. The sixth amendment to the US Constitution, guaranteeing to the accused in all criminal prosecutions the right to a speedy and public trial, extends to those being prosecuted in the military justice system. Third, I seriously doubt that the conditions of his confinement—solitary confinement, sleep interruption, denial of all but minimal physical exercise, etc.—are necessary, customary, or in accordance with law, US or international.

President Obama, Enough! Shame on you for treating your countries heroes this way. How can you even bare to look at your Nobel peace prize? 

Bradley Manning is now said to be in a catatonic state, after having been submitted to continuous torture and inhumane treatment by his own gouvernment. Further down you can all see for yourselves the methods being used. How can anyone, even if they don't agree with what Bradley Manning has done, support this?


In 2005, General Peter Pace, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said: "It is absolutely the responsibility of every U.S. service member, if they see inhumane treatment being conducted, to try to stop it."

Apparently those rules do not apply and never did,  when it comes to their own US soldiers who dare to tell the truth about warcrimes committed by their own gouvernment. The torture of Bradley Manning continues. Probably they are pressuring him to try to reveal the connection between him and Julian Assange so they can fry him too.

That's probably also why the Swedish prosecutors were in no hurry to arrest or question Julian Assange after the sexcrime accusations last year. The US allies needed more time to work on Manning. Well they seem to have done a pretty good job of it.
The whole world is laughing at Sweden and it's ridiculous justice system, but what do the Swedish media do? They laugh right back at the rest of the world, for being so dumb that they don't realize that Sweden is the most superior country in the world. That is, sadly a common Swedish trait.

Do you remeber the scandal in Abu Ghiraib? Do you remember who took the fall for it? Eleven soldiers were convicted in courts martial, sentenced to military prison, and dishonorably discharged from service.  Two soldiers, Specialist Charles Graner, and his former fiancée, Specialist Lynndie England, were sentenced to ten years and three years in prison, respectively, in trials ending on January 14, 2005 and September 26, 2005. But the big guys walked as usual. Rumsfeldt, Bush, Chaney, all innocent little lambs.

People like Sarah Palin think it's justified to kill american patriots like Bradley Manning. 
Thank god she didn't become vicepresident. She is a person that should give any sane human being chills.

Some of the basic individual rights of all Americans and Europeans: Freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of assembly, the right to personal privacy, and  the ban of punishment of anyone without a due process of law!
Neither Bradley Manning or Julian Assange have been charged with any crimes! Still they are being held in captivity and tortured!

I can't believe the media just stand idly by while this is happening right in front of their eyes. Still most of the information comes from, what I guess can be called, "the resistance". Blogs, and hackers that won't stand by while they take away our rights one by one. And where the hell are Amnesty International? Swedish Amnesty have not said a word as far as I know. They are only concerned with rights for women these days. Shame on all of you. You are being paid to do this job, but leave it to people doing it for free.

Can you stomach seeing the CIA interrogation methods?

Secret CIA documents from 2004, shows the CIA instructions on how to "break" a prisoner.

"To hell with human rights", said Bush. "Yes to hell with them" said Rumsfeldt, "Yep" said Chaney. And the CIA issued new instructions to it's interrogators.

America is at war with terror, then everything goes.

Below are the CIA documents. Can you imagine being an interrogator? Having to apply these methods to human beings? Can you imagine being the one having to do the "dirty work"?

If I had a choise, I would rather be the prisoner than the interrogator. To me it would not be humanly possible to treat anyone like this. No matter what they had done. I couldn't do it, or live with myself afterwards.

But there seem to be people cut out for this, and it doesn't seem to be a question of gender either. This is being done right now by federal employees in the worlds "greatest democracy", against one of their own soldiers, who put his life on the line to defend not just America, but also the the human rights in  the whole world. 


Please stop this. It's not worthy of a state that claim to defend freedom and democracy.
