(62,325 posts)you to know that this is a completely discredited and despised man. He is generally viewed as a stooge, a traitor to the cause he pretended to support and a thief. But worse, he is the one who saved the Banks making it possible that he was paid to do so.
He alone destroyed any chance people had of exposing the corruption of the Big Banks and his words, since he has lied blatantly about his intentions regarding the material he stole, are worthless. That's the problem when you lie, no one ever trusts you again.
The fact that you continue to use him as a credible source, tells me you know little about this case, or are hoping no one else knows the facts.
As far as the embassy becoming small for Assange, lol, again, how much do you know of this story? Assange has lived in closets for years while on the run from Oppressive Dictators. He is not exactly used to luxury. Right now he's probably living in better conditions than he ever has in the recent past.
Other fugitives from oppression have remained in embassies for years. I could see that happening here and would not be surprised if both he and Correa planned it when they met a few months ago for Assange's TV show.
