Julian
Assange has now been locked up in the UK's maximum security prison,
Belmarish, going onto two years. He is in solitary confinement,
meaning, lock down for 23 hours, with 1 hour for exercise. According
to the UN articles of what constitutes torture, this is one of the
most egregious type, with no contact with any human beings, and only
an hour of sunlight, that will eventually drive a mind insane. And
according to recent reports coming from those who visited the man,
his health and faculties are failing. The UK government is carrying
out this torture on Julian Assange with the intent of breaking his
spirit, and this is a documented international crime against
humanity. The UK should be brought before the Hague (International
war crimes court) on these charges, but are not. Why?
The
reason Assange is in prison in the first place is the charge of
aiding Chelsea Manning, allegedly, hacking into classified military
files, and exposing American war crimes in Afghanistan, At the
moment, Manning is in jail on contempt charges for refusing to answer
questions to a Grand Jury. These are trumped up charges, as Manning
has already spent 7 years in a military prison because of these
crimes. This is a new attempt by the current Trump administration to
silence whistle blowers and publishers, releasing sensitive
information, including the war crimes of the United States of
America.
The
UK is holding Julian Assange for the US, and at the same time,
committing crimes of their own. From the beginning, the US and their
intelligence agencies have been spreading false information about
Wikileaks and Julian Assange. Unfortunately this propaganda has
worked. But to hold a “political prisoner”, deny his right to
meet with his lawyers, (only permitting two meetings since in
Belmarish), is another crime, and is certainly against the UK justice
system. That said, the UK, like Australia, has become a mere vassal
state of the US. We do what we're told.
The
US has been committing war crimes since they dropped two Atom bombs
on Japan. After the formation of NSC 68, in 1948, the creation of the
CIA, etc., war crimes has been a constant in American foreign policy.
The latest war crime that we know about, was the assassination of a
Iranian general, Soleimani, while travelling to Baghdad on a peace
mission. This brought the world to the brink of war. Now Trump's lies
he's putting aside, claiming it doesn't matter if the Iranian was an
imminent threat, we did it anyway. The US and the UK are committing
war crimes in plain sight, and the MSM, for the most part, is right
behind them. How can we allow these evil actions to continue as a
people?
The
central problem is that all the main stream news outlets, including
those who published the Wikileaks revelations, have been attacking
Assange, and promoting the lies that the intelligence community has
asked them to spread. In a few words, the attack on Julian Assange is
an attack on the US constitution, that is, Freedom of the press. If
Julian goes down, this sets a precedent, the rest of the “free
press” go down to...and every news outlet will become state
sponsored, like the Soviet Union, in their hey day. No real news,
simply state propaganda.
Many
independent news pundits have been screaming from the roof tops about
Julian Assange. However, the MSM, like the good little
corporate/state funded apparatuses they are, remain silent, or even
worse, spread disinformation, like, for example: Julian Assange works
for the Russians. Don't get me started on that Russia-gate bandwagon,
CIA sponsored fiasco.
The
UK is actually committing crimes against their own justice system, by
keeping Assange away from his lawyers, and committing torture on the
man, against International Law. And no one, except a few noteworthy
journalists, public intellectuals and many enlightened people around
the world, has said a damn thing.
As
said above, the UK, from the behest of the US government, are
committing crimes against humanity, as well as crimes against
their own justice system. And many, including the British people,
are not saying a damn thing about it.
Our
governments are committing crimes around the world. The US, UK,
Australia, and Julian Assange, a man who enlightened us to this
egregious behaviour is in prison, denied due process and tortured.
These
elites in power, and their sleazy mouth pieces, the MSM, need to be
held accountable.
