Assange can now be deported to US 😱

@DoctorG I would dearly love them to, & it's not impossible, but tbh i fear it is improbable. You see, with these things bloody geopolitics & economics, + regional security, always comes into play, which i hate coz they seem to be given higher priority than ethics, integrity, truth & honesty.

Is this discussion about politics, or is it about free speech and human rights?
To be honest, that Julian has been held for so long is a travesty of justice.

about free speech and human rights?
About whistleblowers, human rights and a free journalism.
Those are endangered all over the world by strange laws and authoritarian/pseudo-democratic countries.Julian is one part of these people.

I am very angry about these german journalists in the past who leaked logins and then pointed into direction of Mr. Assange and Ms. Manning.
I think we have to fear these parts of press being part of oppression and traitness.

I did never know if that was crazy oldfashioned crown law or UK sort of arbitrariness to help the US.

In Germany nobody wants to report as whistleblower (f.ex. journalists or regular person at work) or security researcher, German justice has its own weird "laws" calling such people criminals and thieves. That ruins your life and business, and will bring you into jail.
Freedom of information is gone since many years.

Bloody fascists.
Ms Manning & Mr Assange are damn heroes, prioritising ethics & truth, yet the despicable US military & government went after them ferociously instead of owning the rotting fish that they are.
In Straya, the new government has not yet taken any better public stance on this outrage than the brown-shirts we recently chucked out. They also have not yet dropped the previously-empowered brown-shirts' active prosecutions of a gaggle of domestic whistleblowers who courageously revealed to the public over recent years, government & corporate criminal & unethical misbehaviour on myriad fronts. These people have had their lives destroyed, with atm no end in sight to their nightmares. We've also had the ignominy of federal cops storming the offices & homes of journalists in attempts to intimidate them into silence.
Anytime i hear supposed first-world democracies with such ghastly immorality as above, criticise other nations / governments, i need large doses of salt to help quash the vomit-impulse triggered by their rank hypocrisy.
I'm still voting for the meteor.

Most likely due to our "special relationship" with the US.

It is outrageous
Who tells the truth, needs a damn fast horse

No, they shoot you in the back.

The Sex Pistols told truth in 1977 about GB govt being some sort of fascists.
