Wikileaks: Anna Ardin as The Accuser - The Devil is in the Tweet Tales

Ms. Anna Ardin  (Belardin)

As the media explosion on WikiLeaks focuses almost solely on the release and reaction to the diplomatic cables, a darker story moves along in quiet parallel- the story of love, betrayal, revenge, and possible entrapment.

The major news will not report this part of the story, not yet.  Until Swedish prosecutor Marianne Ny throws down the gauntlet- an actual complaint with the names of the accusers- the major news networks will not focus on the lives of the two women who made the initial complaint.  However, that time may soon be upon us. Then everyone from TMZ to Nancy Grace will be chasing down Ana Ardin (who blogs under the pseudonym Belardin) and Sophia Wilen- the two jilted lovers who allegedly have conspired to take down Julian Assange, founder of WikiLeaks.

What little is known about Sophia Wilen, is based upon a published report of her short romantic involvement with Mr. Assange.  She has been described by some as a Julian rock star groupie.who became obsessed with Mr. Assange, pursued him at a seminar he gave at a Stockholm trade union, and bought him a bus ticket so he could join her in her home town of  Enkoping.   According to Libertarian Today Author Chris Moore, Mr. Assange and Ms. Wilen had consensual sex that evening at her home and then again the next morning..  He left the next day, as Ms Ardin was planning a crayfish party for him that evening.  The party is the subject of one tweet from Ms. Ardin that she later, somewhat unsuccessfully, deleted.

Despite his promise, Mr. Assange did not call Ms. Wilen after their one night stand. A short time afterwards, Ms. Wilen phoned up Ms. Ardin and the two women began comparing notes.  Allegedly, Ms. Wilen was concerned about contracting AIDS.  Ms. Ardin may have shared her concern, but any person betrayed in such a manner would have been very angry at Julian Assange.  In order to have sex with both women, one can assume he also lied to both women.

Clearly, the seeds for revenge were planted when both women went to the Swedish authorities to ask if a man could be forced to be tested for STD's.  The resulting actions by Swedish authorities may have more to do with pressure from world governments, especially the U.S. Government, to keep Mr. Assange in prison while efforts are made to prepare formal spying charges against him and shut down access to WikiLeaks. While some bloggers on-line argue that Anna Ardin was working with the CIA in a bold attempt at character assassination, this looks more like the adventures of a Cad and his wandering penis and the revenge of his two betrayed lovers- the classic love triangle.

One Reason for Revenge (Source: Anna Ardin Blog)

Ms. Ardin presents herself on the internet as "Belardin" , with a blog and a twitter account. Assange supporters point to her twitter account as once containing critical evidence in a well-orchestrated smear campaign against the WikiLeaks founder.  The other, even more plausible explanation for her actions can be found in her blog- on the issue of revenge. Last January, Ms. Ardin highlighted a seven step method for gaining revenge on a unfaithful lover.  While the first step, forgiveness, is consistent with her Christian belief-system, the remaining steps are decidedly un-Christlike. Her seven steps of revenge are more in line with the Old Testament- eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. In modern times, a person might also manipulate the legal system to imprison, punish, and defame a person for their unfaithfulness and betrayal.

The focus on twitter is based upon two tweets Ms. Ardin made while Assange was staying at her apartment in the month of August.  The tweets appear to represent a person excited to be with a man of such stature within the activist community.  The tweets shown below were retrieved by fellow blogger Goran Rudling, of Consent Now.  After filing her complaint with the police, Ms. Ardin allegedly removed the two tweets that represented a more joyous event with Mr. Assange than unexpected sex.  Based upon her now-deleted tweets, sexual relations with Mr. Assange were expected and possibly encouraged. but those tweets disappeared.  Or did they?

Since her twitter feed was linked to appear simultaneously on her blog, the tweets were still available for viewing at her blog after deletion from her twitter account.  The concerns being raised by Assange supporters are that these tweets are potential evidence that Ms. Ardin manipulated for her benefit and to the benefit of the prosecution.

Saturday 14 August at 14 o'clock, she writes on twitter.com / anna invert:

JULIAN WANTS TO GO TO THE CRAYFISH PARTY, anybody have A PAIR OF TICKETS FOR TONIGHT OR TOMORROW?

from annaardin.bloggy.se August 19

Early on the morning of Sunday, August 15, she wrote again on Twitter:

SITTING OUTSIDE AND FREEZING WITH THE WORLD'S COOLEST AND THE SMARTEST PEOPLE, it's AMAZING!

from annaardin.bloggy.se August 19

After being confronted by an on-line Assange supporter about her removal of the tweets, Belardin’s blog became unavailable for an undetermined period of time.  When it was placed back on-line, the tweets were also removed from her blog.  This suggests a second attempt to remove potential evidence that would place doubts upon Ms. Ardin's testimony (if she ever returns to testify).  

Perhaps this is evidence in itself that will play hard against her own credibility and influence Swedish Prosecutor  Marianne Ny to decide against  prosecuting Mr. Assange.  If you ride on a roller coaster and  are disappointed by the experience, you don't go on the ride again and you tell your friends, "That ride is a rip-off, don't waste your time."  You don't burn down the entire amusement park. 

Belardin the Ardin

 Ms. Wilen's whereabouts are currently unknown.  Ms. Ardin apparently is in Palestine, working with the Christian Socialists of Sweden, Brotherhood Movement, on bringing together people of differing religious faiths into dialog together.   More than likely, Ms. Ardin believes the Palestinian territories are the best place to hide from the incoming hordes of reporters and paparazzi that are poised to descend upon her.  We doubt she will be successful and look forward to her expose' on Anderson Cooper  within the next few months.  

Anna Ardin most recently posted on twitter (December 8th), 

CIA agent, rabid feminist / Muslim lover, a Christian fundamentalist, flat & fatally in love with a man, how can one be all of these at the same time?

 Relax Anna, we will learn how you can be all these things and Sharon Stone! All will come to you in the days ahead.  Enjoy your time in the Middle East.  See you again on the evening news.

Anna Ardin

When Sweden native Anna Ardin threw a party in honor of WikiLeak's founder,  Julian Assange, he had no idea that she would be one of his accusers only four months later.

According to AOL News,  Swedish Authorities have confirmed that Mr. Assange is not wanted for rape but for "sex by surprise" or "unexpected sex".  Take a moment to think on this.  When was the last time you had unexpected sex?   Would sex by surprise be something that you get from a dick in a box?

Australian News site Crikey.com, reports that left wing feminist Anna Ardin, one of two original accusers of Mr. Assange, has stopped cooperating with Swedish authorities and her own lawyer and has left Sweden for....wait for it....the Palestinian territories!  This story writes itself.

Crikey.com writes,

Ardin, who also goes by the name Bernardin, has moved to the West Bank in the Palestinian Territories, as part of a Christian outreach group, aimed at bringing reconciliation between Palestinians and Israelis. 

According a report in The Raw Story, Julian Assange

Sofia Wilen

had consensual, protected sex with Anna's friend, Sofia Wilen. However, at a certain point during the sexual act, his condom failed resulting in an unexpected sexual event.  Ms.Wilen did not appreciate Mr. Assange's failure to control the event, believing that there was an intent to cause the malfunction.

Being familiar with the quality control of condoms through personal experience, we can report with a relative degree of certainty that condoms can malfunction. This can be due to a variety of reasons ranging from faulty manufacturing, improper sizing, and over exuberance during use. Swedish prosecutor, Marianne Ny, will have a hard time proving this case.

In the second event, Mr. Assange allegedly had protected consensual sex in the evening with Anna Ardin, then the next morning, they had unprotected consensual sex.  In our experience, the morning after sex is usually due to a continuation of passion that has not yet abated.  Unfortunately, most men only carry one condom at a time in their wallet. Ms. Ardin later became uncomfortable with the unexpected morning sex and filed a complaint with the Swedish police.  Mr. Assange's sexual adventures with both women allegedly occurred within one week of each other.  Did he expect that these two women would not compare notes?

Swedish Prosecutor Marianne Ny

It is entirely possible that Ms. Ardin became uncomfortable at about the moment she discovered Julian Assange also had an unexpected sexual event with Ms. Wilen.  Mr Assange is now learning three valuable lessons in his Westminster jail cell- next time you have sex with two Swedish women, make certain they are in the same bed with you at the same time, bring more than one condom, buddy- you're gonna need 'em, and never underestimate how far The Company will go to ruin you.

Counterpunch.com's Israel Shamir and Paul Bennett summed up Mr. Assange's behavorial problem quite nicely when they wrote ,

Julian Assange now stands accused of: (1) not calling a young woman the day after he had enjoyed a night with her, (2) asking her to pay for his bus ticket, (3) having unsafe sex, and (4) participating in two brief affairs in the course of one week. 

As President Clinton famously once said,  "I feel your pain."

WikiLeaks - One Government to Censor Us All

PUBLIC ENEMY NO. 1  

You have to admire how well our government can function when they have a singular purpose, one clear goal, and are determined to work together to achieve success.  In order to see the full picture of  the U.S. government as a well-oiled machine, we only have to put together five stories from the past 24-hour news cycle.  Our first story begins with those pesky Republicans. 


Encouraged by their recent mid-term election success, the Republicans have been beating their elephant chests with pride. Not only will they clog Obama's wheel of change, they will spin it backwards, to the point where it started, which would be.....um, the collapse of our banking system and the beginning of the great recession.  


Here is their chance to be true mavericks. Will they praise Julian Assange for bringing transparency back into our governement, for using the free market system to reveal our secrets-on classified stamped memos, and for embarrassing the pants off of President Barak Obama? Yesterday, on Meet the Press, Senate Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell gave us a hint of his party's stance.  

I think the man is a high-tech terrorist,” Senator McConnell stated when asked about WikiLeaks by host David Gregory, “He’s (Assange) done an enormous… He’s done an enormous damage to our country, and I think he needs to be prosecuted to the, the fullest extent of the law; and if that becomes a problem, we need to change the law. I think it’s done enormous damage to our country and, and to our relationships with our allies around the world.”    

I think to change that particular law, we would need a constitutional convention, Senator.   Here is a video of the interview.  I swear on my mother’s tiger-eye jewelry I did not manipulate the video in any way.

Not to be outdone, the democrats sent  Attorney General Eric Holder out to meet with the press and express his determination to hold Mr. Assange accountable in some vague way.  According to the article written by Voice of America’s Jim Malone, Mr. Holder condemned, in strongest terms possible, WikiLeak’s publication of classified diplomatic cables.

When asked by reporters on the type of action he intended to take, Mr. Holder said, 
"With regard to all the tactics that we can do or can use to ameliorate the consequences of these actions, I do not want to get into those as well," he added.  "But we will do everything that we can both to hold people accountable and to minimize the harm that will befall the American people."


Dance, little puppet dance!  Frankly, we will have to accept this as a typical kinda-sorta democratic response that fully supports the capture and crucifixion of Julian Assange. Democrats just don't know how to be strong, forceful, and determined. They just don't want to offend anyone.  But no worries.  As soon as Senator McConnell gets a new law passed that extends our legal boundaries into every other country in the world,  we can hang that bad boy, Osama Bin Laden Julian Assange.


Our third story originates at the State Department, the TMZ of our government services.  An overzealous State Department employee warned Columbia University officials that students who want to have a career at the State Department should censor themselves from participating in anything resembling WikiLeaks.  As reported by Digital trends reporter Molly McHugh,  students were warned in an email that said, well...read it yourself:

From: “Office of Career Services”

Date: November 30, 2010 15:26:53 EST:

Hi students,

We received a call today from a SIPA alumnus who is working at the State Department. He asked us to pass along the following information to anyone who will be applying for jobs in the federal government, since all would require a background investigation and in some instances a security clearance.

The documents released during the past few months through Wikileaks are still considered classified documents. He recommends that you DO NOT post links to these documents nor make comments on social media sites such as Facebook or through Twitter. Engaging in these activities would call into question your ability to deal with confidential information, which is part of most positions with the federal government.

Regards,
Office of Career Services

Apparently, learning the truth about U.S. diplomacy would call into question a future State Department employee's ability to deal with confidential information, which is based on being truthful with your superiors about your political situation.  


Not to be outdone by the State Department, our military brass jumped onto the speeding bandwagon.  Our fourth story comes from gawker.com.. Iraqi soldiers who attempt to access WikiLeaks are greeted with a warning page from the Department of Defense that...well, read it yourself. This is a quote from a spokesperson for U.S. Forces, as reported by gawker.com:.

"U.S. forces in Iraq have not blocked any news websites from being read. Because of the Wikileaks release of secret documents and their easy availability on the web, USF-I has posted a warning page NIPRNet computers go to first. This page simply warns the user that the website they are about to view may contain classified documents and that such documents should not be viewed, downloaded, or distributed on NIPR computers. There is a button at the bottom of this warning page that then allows the user to go to the website."

Now we have the Republicans, Democrats, State Department, and the U.S. Military all on the same page, which apparently is not classified.  That should be enough to drive our wagon down the hill and over the almost deceased corpse of Mr. Assange, right?  If you answered in the affirmative, please sit down, this lesson on "government in full cooperation" is not quite finished.  We haven't mentioned the Library of Congress yet, or the Social Security Administration.


We are of the opinion that the Library of Congress is a stuffy old building where millions of books sit on shelves half a mile high.   To one day work at the Library of Congress must be every librarian's dream.  What a magnificent repository of the history for our culture. Certainly, this great institution would be date-stamping those classified diplomatic cables  and scanning them into their computers for all future generations to view.  Is there a quote? Of course, there is a quote!  From their own blog,:

“The Library decided to block Wikileaks because applicable law obligates federal agencies to protect classified information.  Unauthorized disclosures of classified documents do not alter the documents’ classified status or automatically result in declassification of the documents.”

 We could go on, we do have one more.  Oh what the heck, this is such a long article, if you made it this far you might as well  suffer to the end.  According to Undernews, the online report of  the Progressive Review,
the SSA has restricted access to WikiLeaks.  The Pregressive Review reports it received a copy of an email sent to SSA staffers with the subject line "Information Security Bulletin: WIKILEAKS"   that states,

"Earlier this year a large amount of United States government classified information was illegally released to the public website WIKILEAKS. The documents on WIKILEAKS could place military personnel and United States supporters in Iraq and Afghanistan at an increased risk of harm.

"Despite these documents being publicly accessible over the internet, the documents remain classified and SSA employees should not access, download, or transmit them. Individuals may be subject to applicable federal criminal statutes for unlawful access to or transmission of classified information."

Following this posting on UNDERNEWS were some excellent comments. My favorite was from Anonymous,  

 Oh, I see. We do not want Americans or federal employees having the same access to information as the rest of the world. Got it, brilliant.

The one person having the most difficult time staying on the internet is WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange. Yet despite being cut off from his swiss bank account (something about him not being an actual resident of Switzerland, if that makes any sense), and struggling with a personal problem/smear campaign in Sweden, Mr. Assange is adamant on releasing all 250,000 U.S. diplomatic cables.  We can cry, whine, censor, restrict, threaten, intimidate, arrest, and  prosecute and it will not matter- we will still have to take our medicine. With over 500 mirror sites now releasing documents, WikiLeaks is here to stay.


But it is nice, in a perverse and disturbing way, to see our national government work so perfectly together. Imagine how good our health care would be, how deep our pockets would be filled, and how much more meaning our lives would have if government agencies and political parties were working together to improve the world around us instead of shielding us from the world around us.
