On the 14th of May 2012 Mark Goeder Tarant added a new moderator to the WikiLeaks Forum Facebook Staff Group Page.
Her name was Julia Reiter or Anon1984, 19, Austrian, with excellent command of English, a flair for petitions and she was given a very warm welcome by all, including myself. Very soon her moderating permissions were increased and became a Global Moderator and furthermore, a Language Co-ordinator, joining me and Admin Ariana (potjeha / Jasminka) at the forum’s Volunteer Translations Project. Here is a series of conversations we had in Facebook Messages, which may be illuminating to some.
Conversation about welcomes, Greece and Austria, when will I join UKFoWL? started May 14, 2012

So you’re greek When you said you’d go home to vote I thought that would tell me where you’re from, but then, hm, this weekend elections in France, Greece, Serbia, Italy,…. – bad luck for me ^^

haha, Greek to the bone… although I live in the UK since 1990, I came here to study at Uni and afterwards I stayed – lol EU has been good for me, but I visit Greece and go there for holidays which is super!
And you from Austria?
Hey, go back to the staff room someone else wants to say hi (about the friendliest person on Earth)
Julia Re

Julia Re
Wow, EU can be really cool jep, I’m Austrian and I’m about to graduate from school and then I want to study in Germany
You mean Ersilia? really a friendly person first one to send me a friend request, because I wasn’t sure what to do now, you know
Do you have a double citizenship, then? Like, you can vote in the UK and in Greece?

I understand, take your time, some members are more active than others, there are no bad apples all good people, Mark has brought us together some through the forum others not you could spend some time reading through the past posts here at the staf room, full of all the “gems” that we collect from the forum and bring here to discuss or ask advise on what to do. Most of us have a Mods name and it will take time for you to undestand who is who.
Greek Emmy

Greek Emmy
I don’t have dual citizenship, although I am entitled, I will some time in the future I think., I vote in the local elections here in the UK and in National Elections in Greece. This was the first time I voted in Greece though… imagine… but I had enough with the situation, I had to do something, get rid of the “old guard” give some new people the chance to govern. Have you voted yet in elections?
Julia Re
5/14, 5:20pm
Julia Re
well, knowing Z, Green and isis is a good start I read before that you discussed things like users that had to be excluded, so I know where to go if ever I find one of those. And I see you’re planning another t-shirt competition

The Admins are extremely helpful Julia, anything you need help with myself, Isis and all the other mods can help too but the Admins Z,C,ariana,qubit,sawz are the best in dealing with a difficult situation.

Our duties are mainly keeping the site clean of spam, as you can see from all the past posts here at the staff room. we are responsible for our own boards but collaborate as much as we can. We can move spam to the “Thread Graveyard” or delete them if they are clear Advertising. In the beginning always check with an admin, then when you are sure of what you doing you act independently. Spammers are mostly banned in the end but only an admin can do this, you just ask them
Julia Re
5/14, 5:26pm
Julia Re
yes, because in Austria you can now vote at the age of 16. But the one election where I participated wasn’t really important – just about the Federal President (not sure that’s the right word…Heinz Fischer, in the unlikely case you’ve heard of him ). The federal president can’t really do anything, he’s just a representative, so it’s not that important…but the next parliamentary elections will come The third greek party now failed to form a government, so now the president has to try and make them form one, right? Is that the current status? I haven’t really had the time to get a news update today..
Greek Emmy
5/14, 5:34pm
Greek Emmy
I did not know you could vote at 16! in Austria, it seems like a good thing. In Greece and UK you vote at 18. In Greece indeed you are right, no party coalition can come up with the numbers so elections will be repeated and all political parties are getting ready for this. Probably the 17th of June. In the meanwhile, the Greek President Karolos Papulias (also mostly ceremonial role – he is elected by the Parliament) will appoint a functional government to govern the country till the new elections. It is expected that after sismic change in the political world it will take time for people and political parties to get used to having to work togehter. The next elections will bring about more consolidated vote and will produce a government.
Julia Re
5/14, 5:36pm
Julia Re
What do you think, will Greece really leave the Euro-zone?
Greek Emmy
5/14, 5:37pm
Greek Emmy
No political party in Greece wants this or asks this.
The Euro-zone has advantages but also disadvantages. For Greece. EU membership too has advantages and disadvantages, for all member states.
Julia Re
5/14, 5:38pm
Julia Re
Wow, you should hear our media! The reports range from Greece will leave the euro-zone to will leave the EU alltogether, to there’s going to be a civil-war soon.
Yes, we talked about the advantages and disadvantages of Euro vs. Drachme (is that how you write it?) in school ^^
But my infos about Greece come from our media, mostly, and you get the feeling like you can’t live in that country anymore and it’s about to collapse. Really scary
Greek Emmy
5/14, 5:47pm
Greek Emmy
1. Greece will never leave the EU
2. There will be no civil war
3. The situation is desparate for some people, there are kitchen soups in Athens feeding the very poor
4. The worst off are the immigrants from Middle East North Africa, Afganistan Asia who have entered Greece looking to escape the wars or wanting to go further into the Industrial Europe but the EU law says they have got to stay at the country of entry, so they are stuck in Greece, at least a couple of million of them.. poor souls.
5. The fate of the Euro is not depended on Greece but on how the entire EU acts. Greece was ok under the drachma, the euro brought tremendous inflation (hidden inflation) also Greek market was flooded with cheep imports, many industries in Greece collapsed.ON the other hand it brought really low interest rates, mortgages were available for the very first time in Greek history. I remember interest rates for loans in Greece in the 80’s at 36%.
Julia Re
5/14, 5:50pm
Julia Re
Did you know that some foreign media (like ours) are painting such a devastating picture of the country?
(And PS Sorry if I’m annoying you It’s just very interesting to ask someone who really knows the country!)
Btw those kitchens feeding the poor you mentioned – are those state-funded or run by NGOs?
Greek Emmy
5/14, 5:54pm
Greek Emmy
The situation is difficult because the austerity programme by the troika has plunged the country into economic depression, businesses close down all the time, tax revenues(much needed to pay the debts) have collapsed. It is indeed a desperate situation but can be soon overcome. I am optimistic.
NGO’s, the church,
Greek Emmy
5/14, 5:56pm
Greek Emmy
the ppl are reacting ofcourse, they feel betrayed by their politicians mainly the 2 main political parties. Sadly there is a lot of corruption.
Julia Re
5/14, 5:57pm
Julia Re
Optimism is certainly better than just giving up But another problem is that if the austerity measures stop the EU will stop sending money, right? And they say that if that happens the state will run out of money within weeks. Or is that again scaremongering by the media?
Yes, the greek corruption is infamous.
Also, the country is ruled by a few big families, our teacher said.

I have a million other things to do, I have copied and pasted the whole transcript (what a pain in the neck this was…) and formatted/justified the text in some part… I see you have done in others… I have put my work in as well through post modify and added the last part of the transcript, it should now be complete. Could you concentrate on the text formatting? then I can see if we can possibly reduce the number of parts/posts (30,000 characters per post). What do you think?

Julia Re
6/14, 6:44pm

of course, we don’t have any other choice! It’s just sooo frustrating, to see such an injustice happen and not to be able to do anything against it. On such days I really have a hard time beliving in the system, believing in justice
what are the UKFoWL planning now? I have my final exams on Monday, so I have no time at all this weekend but I’m free to dedicate as much time as I want to to JA and WL afterwards!

greek wisdom
Greek Emmy
6/14, 6:49pm
Greek Emmy
Listen… one one hand you have the wrinkles and the extra kilos and on the other you have a bit of wisdom (maybe) I say it is worth it – For UKFowl, I have to speak to Teclo, I think we should write to all UK MPs individually
in both houses and ask them to take a position on the case, with special focus on the issue of prejudice due to reporting…
Julia Re
6/14, 6:51pm
Julia Re
Yes, that’s probably going to be more effective than an open letter.
good point!
I talked to Tec some days ago and she was going to write a petition to the European Parliament
do you know whether she’s already done that?
(She chose the topic of Proportionality)
Greek Emmy
6/14, 6:53pm
Greek Emmy
Yes she has sent a copy to me but frankly (as you may know) I have been busy with preparing yesterday’s action at the supreme court.. so no time to look at it.
Also it is a highly legal matter and difficult to deal with…
but I will have a look.
In the meanwhile… please have a look at this:
http://www.wikileaks-forum.com/index.php/topic,12119.0.html
Julia Re
6/14, 6:54pm
Julia Re
I see – do you happen to know any lawyer who might help you with it?
Greek Emmy
6/14, 6:54pm
Greek Emmy
No lawyer what so ever…
what I mean… you know with the petitions and letters we are writing there has to be continuation..
ok, I saw Teclo’s letter “please write to your MP”
I wrote to my MP
she replied
what’s next?
is that it?
when we take action we need to have a plan with different stages…
Julia Re
6/14, 6:56pm
Julia Re
I’m just reading the reply, but I understand what you mean. Our possility of action is of course very limited when we only write letters and petitions…
Greek Emmy
6/14, 6:57pm
Greek Emmy
stage 1, 2, 3, etc and bring climax otherwise we might be spending time taking 100 different steps but going no-where…
do you know what I mean?
Julia Re
6/14, 6:58pm
Julia Re
yes, I know. What I was thinking about for a while now…maybe a stupid question: Tunisia has offered JA political asylum – if safe transport into that country was organised…wuldn’t that be an option?
Also, I read that referendums are binding in Australia – couldn’t the Australian supporter groups collect enough signatures to have a referendum about whether the government should prevent his extradition? (I think I heard that they could)
Greek Emmy
6/14, 7:05pm
Greek Emmy
Tunisia…personally I don’t think so. Do you know how easy it would be …I don’t dare to say it… for him to get in harms way… in countries with poor record in Human rights and security? No he needs to be in countries who can guarantee his safety because it would be too high a political cost for their governemtn to not protect him. Anyway goign back to the subject.. we have about 1500 signatures on the Avaaz petition.. what happens to this petition. Does it go on for ever? Is it submitted to the European Parliament? what happens next?
Greek Emmy
6/14, 7:06pm
Greek Emmy
oops sorry again I must dash… I don’t mean to be rude, but in 25 minutes I have to be in two different places at once…
Julia Re
6/14, 7:06pm
Julia Re
lol no problem superwoman
I should be studying
just read this when you come back: I chose certain MEPs to whom I’ll each send an email, explaining what the petition is about and why so many people have signed it and what we want them to do…
and how are the chances that, if we actively approach governemnts, find another country that would offer him asylum?
Russia…? They’re not so good on human rights, but they’re very fond of JA so they wouldn’t harm him.
Or just any other country? I’ve been thinking about the option that Austria offers him asylum, but one ruling party ignored my question about the case and the other was not that enthusiastic, so that’s not likely.
Greece has other problems now, too.
………….someone on the Forum mentioned the possibility of Finland offering him asylum? Should we talk to that member?

I wonder whether this action equates to “breaking the conditions of his bail” I bet you a lot of Mainstream media may follow that spin… I hope WL has lots of press releases on the subject.

it would be sensible to do so I think. “The failure of the UK Judicial System in protecting his HUman rights” would be a good angle as well as “the political abandonment of Australian Government” the lack of faith in the UK government to deal with the political aspect of Assange’s extradition in relation to the US Grand Jury.

lol love the greek letters whenever in philosophy-classes or latin there appeared an acient greek word, I tried to write it, turned to my friend (who had chosen greek instead of french) and asked ‘is this correct??’
but it’s more painting than writing ^^

haha – strange to think it was the basis of the Latin alphabet
Greeks of course took most of it from the Phoenicians
previously they wrote Greek in Linear A and Linear B

ah, I vaguely remember those things from history ^^ I wouldn’t see much in commo between latin and greek letters, but I started to learn Russian some time ago and they just copied many letters from greek^^

My e-mail to Avaaz requesting information on the petition. 29/01/2014. Two days after I sent this e-mail, the petition signatories had reduced by one.

Thank you for submitting a message to Community Petitions Contact.
Your message:
Dear Avaaz This petition was origianlly created by Julia Reiter on 08/06/2012 but I see now that it has been closed by its creator and no signatures were submitted to the European Parliament. https://secure.avaaz.org/en/petition/Julian_Assange_no_US_extradition_1/?pv=18 as I had signed it myself, I am puzzled by the fact it was close and not submitted. I feel that maybe this person misled me and the other 2386 signatories. I also note that the name has been changed to Sandra K and even the country of the creator which was originally mentioned as Austria has been changed to Germany. I fear all this is was a hoax. I have archived here: https://archive.is/n1hxO the original page as it appeared at the time I signed it (the number of signatories was different then). I feel particularly affected as I had actively participated in promoting this petition in FB/Twitter and elsewhere. I would be grateful if you were able to throw some light in what may have happened and whether a fraud has been committed. Kind regards Emmy B****
My e-mail to Avaaz.org of 01/02/2014, following up the change of the petition to a tool of harassment. Again and again the same pattern, wlf uses a vehicle first put together for gathering support for Julian Assange and WikiLeaks (the petition) to do harm.
Dear Sir/Madam
On the 8th of June 2012 a petition was created in support of Julian Assange – No Extradition to be submitted to EU Parliament. I became a signatory and campaigned at the time to promote the petition by sharing it in twitter/facebook.
I recently (29.01.2014) revisited the page wondering what happened to the petition and I saw a number of changes had happened to the page, which were alarming. I sent an e-mail enquiry to Avaaz, using the form and quoting the live URL. The page changed again showing one less signatory. I wrote a post about all this informing the community of WikiLeaks supporters. Today the petition has changed again and now has been turned into a tool of harassment and bullying towards me.
Its title has been changed to say: “Fight cults taking advantage of paranoid people – help Emilia B****” and the creator’s name has been changed to Emmy B, United Kingdom (my name).
Please contact me directly on the matter and take appropriate action.
Here are the archived pages of the petition:
How it looked when originally issued:
How it looked on 29/01/2014: https://archive.is/EJDb0
How it looked 31/01/2014: https://archive.is/cMs2P
How the page looks today 01/02/2014: https://archive.is/6pzNo
My questions are: who is doing all this?
What happened to the original petition, was it submitted to the EU Parliament?
There is obviously some kind of fraud going on here, what will you do to correct this problem?
What is your policy on harassment?
Many thanks for your assistance.
