“Assange BETRAYED: Ecuador Negotiates With UK to Hand Him Over
“Ecuador's leadership continues alarming remarks that it may hand over Assange to authorities”
He is one of the most important and principled and thoughtful men of our time.
He made a lot of other people think and gave them something to think about.
He brought more truth to light than all the pathetic major Western corporate press put together.
A man dedicated to rule of law, democratic rights, freedom of speech, opposition to tyranny and oppression, and an inspiration to others.
If anyone deserves a Nobel Peace Prize, it's Assange, but I know perfectly well the sniveling Norwegian Nobel Committee that hands them out would never do that.
But isn't this to be expected in a corrupt society, which establishment Britain most certainly is?
Remember Doctor Stockmann in Ibsen's moving play, “An Enemy of the People”?
Nothing has changed. Those who, in any way, threaten the comfort of those with power are considered a threat to society.
