Canadian PM's advisor calls for assassination of Julian Assange

In a shockingly flippant comment to a Canadian television news anchor Evan Solomon of the CBC News Network on live TV, Tom Flanagan, a senior advisor and strategist to the Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper today called for the assassination of Wikileaks director Julian Assange . It is believed to be the first ever televised "fatwa" since the edict by the Iranian leadership of the late Ayatollah Khomeini against British writer Salman Rushdie in February 1989. Amazingly, although news anchor Solomon afforded Flanagan the opportunity to retract his statement, Flanagan balked at doing so and instead reiterated that U.S. President should put out a "contract" on Assange or use "a drone" and that he would not be unhappy if Assange "disappeared." Flanagan who is a trusted member of PM Harper's inner circle of Tory strategists joins Sarah Palin in calling for the death of the Wikileaks director as retribution for the website's release of confidential diplomatic and intelligence "chatter" this week.

I've noticed that too, obviously, these papers are worth more to other countries than to the US.

ITT: Political leaders give America a blowjob in the form of bashing Wikileaks.

[B1N4RY!]

I have a strong feeling that Harper's going to lose his position in the next election

[Lalelalala]

Isn't shit like that illegal?

The point of assassination is to do it quietly and not announce it publicly for everyone to know about.

You're obviously supposed to deceive the people and say he died from unknown causes or that he died a mystery.

Hence "assassin"-ation. Not Tell-Everyone-ation.

[BloodYScar]

"kill him with drones [...] Im feeling very manly today"

[sir whoopsalot]

What sort of advisor announces the idea of killing the biggest whistleblower of our time on LIVE NATIONAL TELEVISION?!

Good sir, pack your things. You'll have to find a new job soon.

[Pretiacruento]

Well, Canada obviously mad... reeeal mad...

He's so high profile now if he died at all from anything everyone would automatically suspect assassination.

[Gentlemanne]

Well, he is right, but he's fucking retarded for saying it on television.

[TheTalon]

[Suitcase]
