Yeah....an oldie Shell, but a goodie.
It's doing the rounds again. Not a real lot of action on twitter for such a big day though.
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is guilty of “ordinary criminality” with a mass leak of classified cables that put sources and informants at risk of torture or death, the US government argued today at the start of his extradition battle.
“This is ordinary criminal charges and any person – a journalist or source who hacks or attempted to gain unauthorised access to secure computer systems, or aids and abets others to do so, is guilty of computer misuse”, he said. “Reporting or journalism is no excuse for criminality.”
Mr Lewis started his submissions this morning with an attack on reporting by Assange supporters, saying they wanted to paint him as “the embodiment of free expression”.
Adjourned until May.
Of course they're still going after him, because they're still frightened of him exposing them.
Would it be safe to assume he has some sort of insurance if for example he died in there? If there's anything left for him to expose would it then be let go?
Glenn Greenwald cuts thru the U.S Trump Justice Dept equivocations & duplicitous BS, behind their 'new' charges against Assange.
He also exposes the Liberal left, in their hypocrisy towards press freedom, Democracy & by extension - Assange himself.
You know if he wasn't such a narc, it would have been a lot easier for him.
Greenwald?....He's paid for his aiding & abetting of Snowden, but he sold-out on releasing most of the Snowden files for his freedom & his life.
damn it, bring him home
...he would be one of our finest assets if put to work for the government of AU
imho
I meant Julian, I follow Greenwald on and off. Sometimes he nails it. imo.
He's compromised....Doesn't have half the integrity or courage of Julian.
This is homespun stuff but here goes .. my mother has said to me more than once 'You're very brave but you need to learn the bloody difference between courageous and reckless!' She might have a word with Julian.
It's not Julian's fault our governments are captured & run by criminals.
He pushed it too far you know he did, even if I personally am really disappointed particularly in that our own press turned their backs on him.
Not at all....all he did was to do the job a real journalist is supposed to, under the auspices of our Democratic rights & freedoms: a foundational principle & protector of which is freedom of the press, freedom of information & the First amendment act.
all the rest is BS spin & poppy-utensil, as any one comprehending the basis of our constitutional law knows full -well.
Cease & desist from defending criminal behaviour on the part of our Western governments.
Why are posting in the flavor of an American citizen?
Cease and desist? Big fat LOL.
