You will all be happy moving forward when freedom of speech is further curtailed. ???? What do you expect from sheeple who still believe the BBC propaganda they are fed with. First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. 9 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The British Brainwashing Corporation has a lot to answer for, a lot of the Brits who move here in their later years are so brainwashed they don't even realise it, then apply BBC logic to life in Thailand & in cases they like they are unable to think for themselves and have to be told what to think by the "analysts" that the BBC hires for inflated sums! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that's why he was arrested." Does anyone seriously believe that the uk govt. spent millions to initially stop him escaping as a result of him skipping bail, and then arrested him for this reason?? Let's believe it be so. After all, the UK government will not do anything untoward, would it? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that time the charges were dropped, and even his lawyer contacted the Swedish authorities prior to Julian's travel, and was told it was OK for him to leave Sweden. As soon as he arrived in UK, Sweden requested his extradition, using a legal instrument created for extradition of high profile terrorists... very strange. And the rest is history.

Jingthing Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) They appear to be charging him on something very narrow. Actively hacking into secure U.S. government site. That is clearly very illegal. Not much ambiguity there at all. Receiving information like that from others is different from a freedom of press POV. While the entire Wikileaks thing has become extremely politicized and rightly so considering the WEAPONIZED timing of their releases during the democratic convention, the known activism from Russia trying to get "trump" elected, etc. -- but from a purist rule of law perspective, he should be extradited, and he should be prosecuted. It's no secret that the U.S. is in a virtual civil war now. It's not clear which side of that benefits more from this arrest but the arrest itself is completely justified looking at it from any side.

Court documents prove Assange lawyer admitted that his written testimony was incorrect. The Swedish Authorities on 21/22 September 2010 contacted the lawyer and requested a further interrogation. Initially even whilst giving evidence , the lawyer denied such a request occurred , it was during cross examination that he was asked to look back through his records. Following a short adjournment , the his lawyer returned to acknowledge such a request took place. The lawyer further stated that he could not get in to touch with Assange, untill 28/29th September , the day after which he had left Sweden. The charges could not be dropped due to Swedish procedure requirement of the pre investigation to be concluded , before prosecution can commence. Prior to the extradition hearings , the Swedish courts had issued an arrest warrant , due to probable cause of the offences been committed. It seems somewhat bizzare , that Assange only a few months earlier was extolling the virtues of Swedish Liberties with regards protection for free speech and journalists ( wikileaks at the time being hosted in sweden). However when it came to being extradited , somehow these protections no longer existed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it a try with this: Read Roger Stone's indictment and what it tells us about Assange and the part he played in the Russian interference in the 2016 US election. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he had sex with her 3 times ? I don't remember if it was 3 times or more. But I remember that she had sex with him before the so called rape. And she had consensual had sex with him days or weeks after the so called rape. I can't imagine that a woman who was raped by a guy wants to have sex with him after that so called rape. Real rapist should go to jail. And women who ruin men's lives because they claim rape but there was no rape should also go to jail. This is too serious for stupid allegations. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
