LEGAL Schnauzer: Rove and Wallenberg Are At The Heart Of The Julian Assange Prosecution

"..Anonymous Operation Want (AOW) was the target of a multi-state FBI raid on January 27, reports Bloomberg. The group has responded with a video that spotlights the role of GOP political strategist Karl Rove and the wealthy Wallenberg family of Sweden as key players in an effort to prosecute WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on sex-related charges in Europe.


- AOW says in its new video that Rove used his "dirty tricks" expertise to launch a bogus prosecution against Assange--to the benefit of a Swedish family with strong ties to war-making machinery. The Wallenberg family, through its company Investor AB, controls about 40 percent of the value of companies listed on the Swedish stock exchange. How do the Wallenbergs make their money? AOW explains:


- What is not widely understood, outside of Sweden, is that INVESTORS AB http://www.abb.com industrial sector is creating some of the world’s most deadly war machines, e.g., Saab’s Gripen NG fighter jet with AESA radar. The Gripen was the subject of leaked U.S. Embassy-Stockholm cables, which revealed that the U.S., while pretending to help Saab get AESA radar capabilities to sell Gripen fighter jets to Norway, was actually helping Boeing get the contracts. While costing the Wallenbergs'/Investor's Saab a great deal of money, the U.S. did eventually facilitate General Electric and Honeywell entering into a partnership to equip the Gripen with AESA radar.

- AOW points to a company called ABB as a driving force behind the Assange prosecution: The largest single stake in ABB is held by Investor AB. Headquartered in Zurich, ABB is one of the largest conglomerates in the world, a global leader in power and automation technologies, and the world's largest builder of electricity grids. Why is ABB important? It is pushing for a $4.2-billion purchase of Baldor Electric, which requires anti-trust review from the U.S. Department of Justice. Also, Investor AB has initiated the purchase of a large number of shares of the NASDAQ OMX stock exchange. If approved by U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, the deal would give the Wallenbergs a seat on the exchange.

In short, the Wallenbergs stand to make billions from a pair of issues before the U.S. Department of Justice. And AOW says that is driving the Assange case:
