Question: Why won't Putin give Assange

[BigmanPigman]

the permission to stay in Russia like Snowden? He could even have his internet access back.

If he is kicked out of the embassy he possibly goes to jail for rape. If he gets Schiff to meet with him to clear his name as far as wikileaks and Hillary emails go, then would this benefit him as far as the rape charges go? The charges are from a completely different country. Why does he want to clear his name with the US Dems? Randy Credico announced this on MSNBC yesterday. Apparently Arrange told him to contact Schiff and to do this. Meanwhile their mutual pal Stone has unfriended Credico after he bad-mouthed him in the media over the past month and has harassed him.

1. Then Assange would lose his deniability about not being a Russian tool. n/t

2. Even if Putin wanted to, Assange can't leave the Equadorian embassy

He'd be arrested before he got to the Russian Embassy. But I don't think Putin wants to give him asylum because then that would be admitting they are working together.

3. Assange would have to get from the Ecuadorian embassy

to the Russian embassy without being picked up by London police.

5. The Russians could put him in a diplomatic bag and fly him out tomorrow

New York Times, Nov. 19, 1964:

Italy expelled today two Egyptian diplomats accused of an attempt to "air express" to Cairo a trunk marked "diplomatic mail" but containing a man who had been drugged bound and gagged. The two officials are Abdel Moneim el-Naklawy and Selim Osman el-Sayed, both first secretaries of the United Arab Republic’s Embassy here. The man in the trunk has been identified as Joseph Dahan, 30 years old, a Moroccan. [The man was identified Wednesday by an army officer in Israel as Mordecai Luk, an Israeli renegade] The man told Italian policemen that he was kidnapped in a café in Rome and taken to an apartment and that the following day he was drugged and put into the trunk. He was freed after an airport guard heard him moaning as he was being put aboard an Egyptian airliner. […]

There was speculation that the trunk, especially fitted with a small seat and adjustable foot and head supports, had been used for other such "shipments," because the exterior appeared worn.

The trunk was addressed to the United Arab Republic’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Cairo. One tag identified the trunk as "Diplomatic Mail No. 33."

4. Maybe because Putin also knows that Assange is a verifiable prick.

6. Question: Why Does Assange Give Putin a Free Pass?

Answer: Because Putin would kill him if he published material that made Putin look bad. Likewise, El Salvador only shut Assange down when he published materials that affected South American elections.

Assange is a Russian tool.
