So-called “fiscal conservative” radio talk show host Todd Schnitt has posted a $50,000 reward for information leading to the capture of “WikiLeaks menace” Julian Assange. Schnitt, who hosts a radio show in Tampa, Florida, says Assange is a terrorist and an enemy combatant “who needs to be treated as such,” according to a wanted poster on Schnitt’s website.

In other words, Schnitt believes Assange should be kidnapped, thrown in a CIA aircraft and flown to a dungeon in Eastern Europe or sent Camp Gitmo, and tortured for posting negligible government information.

Meanwhile, other faux conservatives have called for murdering Assange. A few days ago Fox’s Bill O’Reilly said he’d like to see the globe-trotting WikiLeaks founder killed by a Hellfire missile fired from a CIA drone (see O’Reilly’s comments here).

Watergate break-in criminal G. Gordon Liddy has also called for assassinating Assange. Liddy has compared Assange to the patsy handler and Pentagon dinner guest Anwar al-Awlaki. He wants Assange placed on the same kill list as al-Awlaki. A few months ago Barry Obama and crew signed off on a plan to kill the American-born cleric.

In August, it was discovered that the Obama administration pressured Britain, Germany, Australia, and other allied Western governments to consider opening criminal investigations of Assange and to severely limit his travel across international borders.

Earlier this year, Pentagon whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg said he feared Assange would be assassinated for revealing information on U.S. policy in Iraq. Asked by The Daily Beast if he thought Julian Assange’s life is in danger, Ellsberg said: “Absolutely. On the same basis, I was… Obama is now proclaiming rights of life and death, being judge, jury, and executioner of Americans without due process.”

Schnitt, O’Reilly, Liddy, and the corporate media rightwingers – as a manufactured counterpoint to the corporate media leftwingers – are not calling for the banksters to be arrested or assassinated. Assange’s crimes pale in comparison to the massive and unprecedented grand theft larceny pulled off by Wall Street, the banksters, and the global financial elite.

The CIA’s favorite newspaper, the Washington Post, reports this morning that the Federal Reserve, the criminal organization owned by offshore banksters, “rushed trillions of dollars in emergency aid not just to Wall Street but also to motorcycle makers, telecom firms and foreign-owned banks in 2008 and 2009.”

Billions went to foreign banks, including Barclays, Dexia, the Bank of Scotland, UBS, and others. “We’re talking about huge sums of money going to bail out large foreign banks,” said an outraged senator Bernie Sanders. “Has the Federal Reserve of the United States become the central bank of the world?”

“From huge multinationals such as Citigroup and General Electric to small funds and Germany’s Landesbanken, the list of participants to the six Fed programs is a who’s who of modern finance,” explains the Financial Times.

On Tuesday, the Federal Reserve released selective data on 21,000 transactions from $3.3 trillion in what we were told was emergency lending to stem the financial crisis. The Dodd-Frank law requires the Fed to disclose the names of borrowers, the size and interest rates of loans, and “information identifying the types and amounts of collateral pledged or assets transferred,” but the Fed has withheld details on individual securities pledged as collateral by recipients, according to Bloomberg.

The Treasury Department encouraged banks to use the bailout money to buy their competitors and pushed through an amendment to the tax laws which rewards mergers in the banking industry. It went to the very people who engineered the crisis – bankster Ponzi schemers and Wall Street and derivatives traders. “But the TARP bailout is peanuts compared to the numerous other bailouts the government has given to the giant banks,” writes Washington’s Blog. “There are many other bailout programs as well. If these bailouts and subsidies are added up, they amount to many tens – or perhaps even hundreds — of trillions of dollars.”

Trillions absconded by the bankers and their cronies with the assistance of the Federal Reserve – including European banks and corporations – and yet you rarely hear so-called “conservatives” calling for the arrest or assassination of bankers. In fact, it is like pulling teeth to get many conservatives to call for auditing the Federal Reserve.

Instead, they rant about the leftist fall guy Julian Assange who may or may not be a dupe for the CIA and Mossad.

Talk about screwed up priorities.
