Lawyers for Julian Assange have filed an appeal against Judge Howard Riddle's ruling last week that Assange should be extradited to Sweden because he felt Assange could get a fair trial in Sweden and that his extradition to Sweden would not violate his human rights.
Assange has been fighting extradition to Sweden where he has not been charged with anything but is wanted for questioning by the Swedish police about accusations of rape and sexual molestation made against him by Sofia Wilen and Anna Ardin. Assange denies the allegations and says he had consensual sex with the two women.

Icelandic member of parliament, ex-WikiLeaks spokesperson, and member of the team behind the making of the Collateral Murder video, Birgitta Jonsdottir, sat down with Dominique Deckmyn in Ghent to talk about Julian Assange, WikiLeaks, and more.
The United States government is trying to use the Twitter accounts of Jonsdottir and others associated with WikiLeaks like Julian Assange, U.S. soldier Bradley Manning, US computer researcher Jacob Appelbaum, and Dutch volunteer for WikiLeaks Rop Gonggrijp to build a case against Assange for publishing the secret military communications relating to the Iraq and Afghan wars, publishing the roughly 250,000 classified diplomatic cables and releasing the Collateral Murder video.

Responding on Twitter to Hislop and the Private Eye article Assange said:
"Hislop has distorted, invented or misremembered almost every significant claim and phrase. In particular, 'Jewish conspiracy' is completely false, in spirit and in word. It is serious and upsetting. Rather than correct a smear, Mr. Hislop has attempted, perhaps not surprisingly, to justify one smear with another in the same direction.”.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, through his London-based law firm Finers Stephens Innocent, has filed an application with the United Kingdom's intellectual property office (IPO) to trademark his name and the WikiLeaks name and logo.
The IPO will publish Assange's trademark in its official Trademark Journal on Friday March 4th. At that point there will be a 2-3 month period for anyone to object, otherwise it should go through.
