Julian Assange's Twitter Account Has Been Deleted: Why? And By Whom?

I first became aware of this last evening. I didn't post on it, just in case it was some sort of mistake.

However, as this story has now reached the MSM, I guess it is time. Especially since they don't know what happened EITHER.

From CBS News:
The official Twitter account of controversial Wikileaks founder Julian Assange -- @JulianAssange -- isn't showing up. Instead, anyone trying to reach it gets this message:
It wasn't clear whether the account was suspended or deleted by Twitter or Assange himself -- or why or for how long. Twitter wasn't commenting. 
The official Wikileaks Twitter account was still live but wasn't mentioning the Assange account. 
An account purporting to be an alternative Assange account was claiming Twitter had deleted his official one ahead of a blockbuster story he's preparing to break. 
There was no confirmation that Assange was authoring that alternative account -- and that account has now been suspended by Twitter.
Of course, Assange may not be the author of that second account, but we do know a big, big story was set to appear in coming days. And I had speculated that the source/messenger would be Assange.

In the truest sense, digital freedom has a flip side and it is digital bondage. Various demographics can be placed inside template fencing for easier "management". Monitoring of thought life - private thoughts now in public domain: Profiles built.

Instead of a war where it is every man at every gun, the goal is every man with a cell phone. Telecommunication explosion across the globe is about a three-way access to billions. You talk to me, I talk to you, and a third party robotic may also be busy. Information warfare is an important part of a larger warcraft configuration.

Merry Christmas to all! (except for the crazy Pope with his nonsensical remarks about Joseph and Mary....)

Merry Christmas all!
Pasto: This simply confirms your hypothesis posted in yesterday's reply : https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19209018&postID=3240072406376620755&isPopup=true&bpli=1

Deleting Assange's twitter account is a foolish attempt to silence him. Recall also that his attorney's office was raided recently. 12/20 RT: WikiLeaks lawyer’s office stormed by hooded raiders in ‘attempted robbery’
===>" Three hooded raiders broke into the office of WikiLeaks lawyer Baltasar Garzon in Madrid, covering security cameras with tape in what police described as a “very professional” operation.

The break-in took place at dawn on Monday, and police are treating it as an “attempted robbery,” El Pais reports.

The thieves didn’t take any money and police are waiting for technicians to confirm whether any files were taken or copied from Garzon’s computer. Police are analyzing the security cameras at the entrance to the office."

Clearly - political excrement is about to hit the fan.

Yeah, but I was also thinking, it confirms your point.

That the rumor got out is PROBABLY WHAT LED TO HIS DISAPPEARANCE FROM TWITTER.

Julian Assange’s Twitter Account Back Up After Vanishing Earlier

====>His location does not match his old one. Plus he's following 24 accounts now including the UN & the Pope. He always ONLY followed @wikileaks. What's up with that?
