After the release of the classified US military video, called Collateral Murder, on Wikileaks, the founder of Wikileaks Julian Assange is wanted by the Pentagon. They are convinced he may be in possession of more classified information.

WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad -- including two Reuters news staff.

Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-sight, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded.

Anxious that Wikileaks may be on the verge of publishing a batch of secret State Department cables, investigators are desperately searching for founder Julian Assange. Philip Shenon reports. Plus, Daniel Ellsberg tells The Daily Beast: "Assange is in Some Danger."
(This story has been updated to reflect new developments on Assange's whereabouts, including the cancelation of a scheduled appearance in Las Vegas.)
Pentagon investigators are trying to determine the whereabouts of the Australian-born founder of the secretive website Wikileaks for fear that he may be about to publish a huge cache of classified State Department cables that, if made public, could do serious damage to national security, government officials tell The Daily Beast.
The officials acknowledge that even if they found the website founder, Julian Assange, it is not clear what they could do to block publication of the cables on Wikileaks, which is nominally based on a server in Sweden and bills itself as a champion of whistleblowers.
"We'd like to know where he is; we'd like his cooperation in this," one U.S. official said of Assange.American officials said Pentagon investigators are convinced that Assange is in possession of at least some classified State Department cables leaked by a 22-year-old Army intelligence specialist, Bradley Manning of Potomac, Maryland, who is now in custody in Kuwait.
And given the contents of the cables, the feds have good reason to be concerned.
As The Daily Beast reported June 8, Manning, while posted in Iraq, apparently had special access to cables prepared by diplomats and State Department officials throughout the Middle East, regarding the workings of Arab governments and their leaders, according to an American diplomat

I don't like the sound of this.

OMG!  Assange needs to run or be protected by his government, which they probably won't do.  The truth needs to be exposed regarding the atrocities against innocent people in this war.  I pray to God that Assange is kept safe.

He "is wanted". Wether they like it or not, the truth is the truth. The whole government of America makes no sence at all. Like all their political objectives and their naiive propraganda. It's sad that things happen and when people discover they "want" that person and eventually assassinate. Killing whole groups of innocent people and doing it all for the money..

He'd better watch his ass in that case... If something happens to him, we know why.
