And this is why I find all the posts around China and why people/company should be ostracised for dealing with them hypocritical.
If only saints can point out the bad behaviors of others then you're going to be living in a pretty crappy society.

#32Young people IMHO have no idea what's going on. In one line: Assange in 2010 revealed and gave clear proof of American war crimes in Iraq https://wikileaks.org/wiki/Collateral_Murder,_5_Apr_2010 - now the US wants him dead. That's how imperialism works. Today is a sad day for all freedom and peace lovers. Edit: just to be clear, the perpetrators of those barbarous war crimes, and their superiors, never had to face ju…
Thanks for making that short summary for the people who have not followed the saga since the beginning. I believe wikileaks bother many/much more people (remember paypal and visa not taking donation for the site) but what you added is short and concise to put someone up to speed quickly.
Wikileaks is a crusader outlet supporting basically anyone anti-American (and generally anti Western liberal) at expense of anyone else.

He mentioned a single thing that Assange has done. That's not bringing people up to speed. Its disingenuous because its a more complicated situation than that one thing describes. And that statement stands whether a person supports him or is hell bent on seeing his life permanently ruined or ended.

#34Earlier quoted context omitted.
there is no way he will ever be free. it's just 1 man vs multiple governments. US gov is in no rush to bring it to trial. they'll keep him in solitary to die waiting for a trial that will never come
He's entitled to a trial within 70 days of his first appearance in the US, if he demands one. Speedy Trial Act of 1974.
If he does eventually leave UK, we should all pray he does actually appear in USA at some point. Lots of "enemies" just disappear.
This man is not a USA citizen, and was not in USA when he did the journalism that so offends the USA deep state. He will be extradited for purely political "crimes". Let's not pretend anymore that any of us live in societies governed by laws.

#35Wish he revealed the secrets of China or Russia, not the United States.

#36The histrionics, conspiracy theories and outright lies in this thread are outrageous. The US justice system is not the same as despotic countries like Russia or China.
Reality Winner will be released from prison soon. Chelsea Manning, who leaked the info to him, the actual whistleblower who broke the laws, is a free woman. (Could you imagine if Chelsea tried to transition to a woman in Russia or China or other nations that are coming up in this thread in comparison? Just goes to show how fundamentally different these societies are, that she could transition to a woman while incarcerated!)
If Assange hadn't played his games avoiding the court for the better part of a decade, the dude would probably already have done his time and be free.
Although it's entertaining to read the astronomically terrible takes in this thread, I did hope to see a little more intelligence in this community.

#37relevant : https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2021/11/30/assange-and-th... Seems like the "assurances" given by the U.S should not be taken seriously. Previous actions speak (or should I say shout) much louder than words. P.S : Adding "FREE JULIAN ASSANGE" to my personal website, I encourage everyone to do the same

Great idea. I would suggest to link to this page https://defend.wikileaks.org/

#39What rotten people are driving this, and how do we hold them accountable?
The people are just the cells of the same beast since ancient times. Empire. In all shapes and forms, it devours what it grew in and becomes the same brutish atrocity over and over again.
And it stays alive as "wannabe big" again dream long after. This is why britains elite aligns so flawlessly with the atrocities of the usa imperial bloom. The institutions recognize themselves from 100 years ago, when the trampled and maimed people like ghandi.

Sure, it's more complicated, but that the basic truth. That's why everything stated. Then people can dig all the details and the 10 years of twist and turns.
