JOHN CHUCKMAN COMMENT: JULIAN ASSANGE CALLED A HERO - I AGREE BUT IBSEN'S "AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE" SHOWED US HOW THE ESTABLISHMENT TREATS HEROES




COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN RUSSIA INSIDER


“Independent journalist Suzie Dawson has written a very important and very long (a short book really) article about Julian Assange. In a nutshell it says that he is undisputedly a hero”

And I agree with Ms Dawson.

Assange is one of our few genuine heroes, an international hero.

We never see the mislabeled Nobel Peace Prize going to people of such courage in the cause of what is right.

No, we see a long list of mediocrities, questionable characters, and even terrorists - all people who essentially serve American imperial interests.

Like Dr. Stockmann in Ibsen's "An Enemy of the People," he is made to suffer just for revealing what is wrong.

You aren't allowed by power to do that. Just look at the complete fabric of lies we live under with Syria, Israel, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, the Democratic Party, etc., etc.
