I know you meant to say "The US Govt. vs. the criminal Assange".


If Assange disappears into the US "justice" system it's the end of the line for free speech and whistleblowers. Capitalism does totalitarianism just as efficiently as communism does.

The Assange affair has little to do with Capitalism or Communism.
The only difference being that if he had been nabbed in a communist country, he wouldn’t have his day in court.

Assange has a heart condition. They will probably Milosevic him. They didn't want a trial with him either. He was no worse than Abe Lincoln.

The only difference between "war crimes" and what Assange did was that we weren't at war.

Of course, I am talking about how he allowed the Russians to release what they called "Hillary's emails" with zero providence. There's no way to know if what they released was real. In fact, I'm guessing it wasn't. Their aim was to benefit Trump, of course they'd doctor as many emails as that took. We had ZERO way of knowing what the original emails said. Assange allowed lies to be taken as fact. He deserves to go to jail.

War crimes? Hardly.

No, no, whistle blowers for Leftists will always be welcome.

Given the hostility of the Trump administration to journalists and the truth in general, it was little surprise that they chose to indict Assange (which the Obama administration had declined to do).

Hate to break it to you, but Assange is being prosecuted by a right wing administration for getting information from Chelsea Manning regarding war crimes in Afghanistan ( the revelation of which "leftists" applauded).

Admit it, Lefties only like Manning because he wears dresses and has the legs for it.

Sickos.
