In case of his conviction, no journalist would be safe, when publishing the wrongdoing of a government. Besides Assange informed the New York Times and the Guardian of the war crimes and also asked to handle this information sensitively. Both papers never ever had been charged with the publishing of those crimes. From the very beginning it was a man hunt by the U.S.aiming to kill free journalism. indeed, let's not forget how he revealed the illegal activities of the Pentagon and the CIA, two organizations that do not answer to anyone, not even to the POTUS when it can 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This scumbag is a con artist and he has conned again. More expense to the UK taxpayers. He screwed his lawyer and she had two kids. He has screwed the UK legal system for a few million £ more.

And this comment neatly summarizes why he should not be sent back to a crippled society that imprisons more of its own people than Iran or China and subjects them to cruel and inhuman treatment. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you ever been court martialed, I have. Some countries abolished military courts and now military people are judged by civilians, is that fair? As it is US and military related my comment is an American way of thinking answer, even I'm not American. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have any of them been charged in a military court? So who, in your opinion ordered the gung-ho US Apache helicopter crew to mow down 11 innocent civilians, then their superiors covering up the war crime? The politicians, or the guys who completely ignored the rules of war and their military superiors who covered up the war crime. The crew of Enola Gay was never imprisoned. Erich Hartmann on the other side was. Those who bombed Dresden, same thing. I don't want to defend that crew but once a war start dirty things will happen. And why these people become monsters? The time that we had only battlefields where only soldiers were slaughtered are long gone. The time they stopped for tea does not exist anymore. More and more civilians will be killed in the new conflicts as they are not military trained nor equipped. If you want to stop all this abolish the UN the worst members have all a veto right. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedrogaz Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 Governments should not be able to hide their law breaking and evil deeds. Assange is a hero, alongside Snowden and Chelsea Manning. The US is constantly breaking international laws, and the CIA has to be the most thuggish and evil organisation on earth. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my 25 years in the RAF I know of nobody who was court martialed. I assume that there must have been but in my postings to 12 different stations both in the UK or abroad I never came across it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sujo Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 6 hours ago, Pilotman said: so the 'logic' of this judge and this decision is that Assange has a case to answer in law and therefore the application for extradition is correct. The US consider him a flight risk, which he has proved that he is, therefore he must be kepi under maximum security. Maximum security means he may want to kill himself, (his choice) therefore he can't be extradited to face justice unless he is under less security, where he may push off (which he will) . So, he has a case to answer, but he will not answer for it because the poor didums may top himself. The law is an ass. Wrong again. It was an extradition case, not a judgment of guilt or innocence. The judge never made a dtermination of guilt, she cannot do that. It is not his choice on suicide. When in custody it is the responsibility of the govt to prevent it. Your opinion on the law is diametrically opposed to hundreds of years of precedence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since you have been court martialed i give your opinion the respect it deserves, zero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
