RE: The Murder of Julian Assange

in #palnet5 years ago

Assassination in slow motion, indeed.

More lies in the media today trying to push the narrative that Trump offered Assange a pardon if he would agree to state that the Russian hack of the DNC was a hoax.
(I'm paraphrasing)
The problem is Assange has ALWAYS claimed that Wikileaks came into possession of the files through a leaker and not from a state actor.

Those who have followed this story closely know that the FBI NEVER saw Clinton's server and accepted the findings of the private security firm Crowdstrike without question. There's no evidence substantial Russian interference (a few Facebook ads) which was created as a cover story for the hack and HRC failed presidential bid. Then echoed ad nauseum through the legacy media for 3 years: Russiagate fabricated story.

Thank you for quoting John Pilger and his statements concerning how this case is about more than simply Julian's human rights and the disastrous effects his extradition will have on ALL journalists and for Freedom of Speech.

Thank you old friend! Bill Binney laid to rest any illusions of Russian hacking the DNC server... Crowdstrike is behind the DNC part of the coverup (along with the Awans). Suspicious isn't it that the FBI just rolled over when Crowdstrike and the DNC refused to turn the server over to them?

John Pilger is a good man- his politics differ from mine- but he's honest and I respect that. He's an old-time liberal from back in the days when liberals and conservatives both wanted the same things- they just disagreed on how to get there. His integrity is beyond question- in fact it was his article that prompted me to postpone my day off and do a post on Julian. I'm having physical problems that make posting everyday impossible now- old age, you know.

This is about a lot more than Julian, but I'm concerned for him too from a human rights perspective... you should never have to pay with your life or health for telling the truth. Schaeffer Cox is in a hellhole for challenging the FBI, the most corrupt law enforcement org on the planet- it has been since the Hoover days. Their only concern is political, protecting the cabal. I'm not optimistic- more and more we're adopting the Chinese surveillance state. Once the 2nd Amendment is gone, it's over... if it even takes that- I don't see anybody out there willing to fight- just a bunch of saber-rattling.

Yeah, I hear you man!
This is about much more than Assange but he's suffered immensely for speaking out against empire, corruption and war crimes. He may face the death penalty under 'espionage' charges - but he's not American. How is this justice? The intelligence industrial complex wants to make an example out of him.

Things look bleak, and we're definitely on the path Chinese style surveillance state if we don't wake up. It may be too late for Assange but I still hope that we can turn the tide. Call me naive but let's at least go down swinging fighting for what we believe in.

You and me both Brother! Freeing Julian has to be a priority... he's sacrificed everything for the cause of truth and transparency. Perhaps if the public outcry became loud enough. It's times like this I wish I had a bigger platform- I'm just one little guy- a nobody screaming into the wind.

One thing is for certain- like you, I'll go down fighting. I'd gladly trade what's left of my life to free Julian.

Stripped to it's essence, this story isn't about politics, and folks that vehemently oppose Assange's politics need be mindful of the fact that political control of government changes from time to time.

While the folks that favor their politics are in control they should not set the precedent that it is ok for those political leaders to torture people to death, because political control of the mechanism that does that torturing will soon change hands, and then their politics will not be in favor.

But that precedent that allows political leaders to torture people to death they disagree with politically will still stand. Then they will be people the political leaders disagree with, and it will be they and their ilk that are under threat of whatever they have allowed governmet to do when it was led by those they agreed with politically.

Sheeple are incapable of this understanding. Rational human beings, on the other hand, damn well better understand this fact, and for that reason, regardless of our politics, every rational human being needs to defend Assange from being tortured to death by government, because by doing so we're defending ourselves from being subjected to that identical treatment.

Thanks!
