craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2024/… The United States has now, on the face of it, produced the Diplomatic Note giving the two assurances required by the High Court to allow the extradition of Julian Assange to proceed. The assurance that Julian Assange will be allowed to rely on the First Amendment in his defence is a blatantly weak piece of sophistry. You can read my analysis on the High Court judgment of Assange’s right to an appeal here. Let me dispense with the assurance against the death penalty. I am sure it will be accepted by the court. The USA does not need to execute Julian, it can incarcerate him in a tiny concrete tomb for life, under extreme sensory deprivation, as a terrible half living warning to any journalist who might reveal their crimes. Should that ever become inconvenient, he can be Epsteined or Seth Riched at any moment. Remember this is a government that plotted to kidnap and/or assassinate him, as pled and not denied in court. The assurance required on First Amendment protection is being misunderstood by almost everybody reporting it, and the US Diplomatic Note seeks to take advantage of the confusion. The High Court took the view
What do you make of Biden’s statement that he’s ‘considering’ dropping the charges Craig? Window dressing to appease the Aussies, or something more nefarious? It seems to me that Julian is taking a plaguey long time dying and the CIA would love the opportunity to finish the job. Will Julian ever be really free to live a normal family life without constantly looking over his shoulder? I doubt it 🙁
@CraigMurrayOrg The US assurances are a farce. They offer nothing, ZERO, no assurance, NOTHING.
@CraigMurrayOrg Exode 20:12 N'otons pas des droits.. pour enterrer.. celui qui vous a tous bien servi..Accordons plutôt des droits pour faire vivre...et reconnaître au moins le bienfait.
@CraigMurrayOrg Think you are wrong .. He is not the first whistle-blower that has shown America for its war crimes or corruption. I think they would kill him to set an example to others.
@CraigMurrayOrg @georgegalloway Bring Assange home(Australia) let the local courts try him on as many charges- “A fair go a fair trial”
@CraigMurrayOrg Julian Assange should not be extradited, Julian Assange should be free!!! #JournalismIsNotACrime #FreeAssange #FreeAssange2024 !!!
