He recently said in an interview that he has enough information to force the president of B of A to resign. In a London interview Assange said "We don't want the bank to suffer unless it's called for," Assange told The Times. "But if its management is operating in a responsive way there will be resignations," he said, without giving details about the material.<br />
<br />
We can look forward to this leak early next year. I do not think Assange talks about leaks then doesn't leak them regardless if he "doesn't want the bank to suffer."<br />
<br />
<br />
IMPORTANT UPDATE:<br />
<br />
Forbes magazine is reporting that the "confirmation of Bank of America" as the target is misreported throughout major sources on the internet. An interviewer at Forbes says he spoke with Assange's interviewer at The London Times and he said Assange did not mention which bank. Why did the rumor that Bank of America was a confirmed target start? Or is it a rumor? Assange's Times interview transcript has not been published.Eric Landonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07862719955840244335noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7349895715527944784.post-53688960158774952662010-12-21T05:23:00.000-08:002010-12-21T05:23:39.190-08:00Koran Written In Saddam Hussein's BloodThe Guardian <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2010/dec/19/saddam-legacy-quran-iraqi-government">reports</a> that leader's in Iraq are struggling with the decision of what to do with a Koran that the former leader had written in his blood. Hussein commissioned a fellow Islamic to write the entire Koran with 27 litres of his blood over the course of 2 years. The Koran is about the same length as the Bible's New Testiment to give us westerners a better idea of how much blood was needed.<br />
<br />
If this doesn't scream "CRAZY RELIGIOUS NUTBAG," well than Hussein's other actions do.<br />

Phillip Ray Greaves first received national media attention after selling his self published book on Amazon.com. Some argue that freedom of speech gives Greaves the right to publish this book; however, most reasonable people would agree that Greaves is publishing harmful material. I personally think that if they he cannot be charged with obscenity that if anyone who has bought his book has committed a crime that Greaves is charged with accessory to the crime by providing this material.<br />

At one point in the video a feeble old woman tries to hit the gunman with her purse with almost no response from the gunman. It was actually kind of comical. We'll her name was Ginger and she is now selling the purse that she hit the gunman with on EBAY.<br />
<br />
there are 25 bids and its at $900 so far. How strange..<br />
