People have often asked me why someone like Ecuador’s President Correa would help with the various psyops, Julian Assange and Edward Snowden. I wondered about that myself til I read the following new report out of the Guardian this morning: it’s been their London office putting out all this support for the various psyops, not Ecuador… and now their president is pissed off and pulling his support.
The plan to spirit the surveillance whistleblower Edward Snowden to sanctuary in Latin America appeared to be unravelling on Friday, amid tension between Ecuador‘s government and Julian Assange, the founder of WikiLeaks.
President Rafael Correa halted an effort to help Snowden leave Russia amid concern Assange was usurping the role of the Ecuadoran government, according to leaked diplomatic correspondence published on Friday.
