Julian Assange is the founder and editor-in-chief of the WikiLeaks website, which published millions of pages of government, banking and corporate documents, revealing war scandals, financial scams, and conspiracy globalists.
Assange's computer-hacker talent, which would let him to hack into bank accounts without difficulty, turned him to a different direction. John Pilger, a late deceased legendary independent writer and filmmaker, wrote in 2018: “When I first met Julian Assange over 10 years ago, I asked him why he founded WikiLeaks. He said: "Transparency and work are moral issues that must be the essence of public life and journalism".
Assange pays the price of freedom for putting this motto into practice. He put himself most at hazard to the US services by publishing material on U.S. wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The first crucial signal providing WikiLeaks with secret papers from the American Army was Bradley Manning (after changing genders he assumed the name Chelse), a military expert and intelligence analyst. The papers provided by Manning were published in the leading newspapers of the world. This U.S. intelligence and safety service could not spare. In addition, another CIA worker Edward Snowden, initially in the press, and later in WikiLeaks revealed secret papers about PRISM, a program of surveillance by the NSA (National safety Agency) of telephone calls, web correspondence and accounts on social networks.
Snowden, supported by Assange, saved freedom, possibly even life, through asylum and citizenship granted in Russia. The Polish authorities refused Snowden to grant asylum, which, given the U.S. influence in Poland, surely did him good.
It is worth noting that the papers disclosed by WikiLeaks besides included Polish themes. The most popular was the secret note of the US Ambassador to Poland. The paper was sent on 23 January 2009 from the United States embassy in Poland to Washington, where the gathering of the then talker of the Sejm was described Bronisław Komorowski with the ambassador Victor Ash. During the conversation, there was to be a subject of compensation payments for judaic property without inheritance, received during the Second War, which was to be financed from funds obtained through the sale of part of national property, including State Forests.
The hunt for Assange began on 30 November 2010 erstwhile Interpol issued an APB at Sweden's request marked by the highest category, which means seeking Assange for arrest and extradition in connection with sexual extortion and rape charges. 2 women reported to the police in Sweden to meet Assange on August 14, 2010 in Stockholm and charged him six days later with sexual crimes. This crime was to be Assange’s reluctance to usage condoms.
A crucial part of the public considers the prosecution to be part of the United States services' efforts to discredit the founder of WikiLeaks. On June 19, 2012, Assange took refuge at the Ecuador embassy in London and asked for political asylum to defend himself from extradition to Sweden. 16 August Ecuadorian Minister for abroad Affairs, Ricardo Patiño, informed of the granting of political asylum. Assange was granted Ecuadorian citizenship on December 12, 2017.
Assange’s efforts to uncover the fact about actions contrary to the law of government agencies have acquired the characteristics of an epidemic. Despite being aware of the threat of prison, fresh courageous signalers appeared to cooperate with WikiLeaks. The disclosure of the Crypt 7 act in spring 2017, detailing the CIA's hacking activities, was 1 of WikiLeaks' more awesome achievements, despite the fact that the editor-in-chief at that time was isolated at the Ecuador embassy.. The action consisted of taking over 180 gigabytes of information and was, according to the agency, "the biggest data failure in CIA history". The author of the acquisition and transportation of the seized materials to WikiLeaks was Joshua Schulte, A programmer working at the CIA Cyber Intelligence Center, which was sentenced in September 2023 by the fresh York national court to 40 years in prison after 3 trials.
Assange betrayed
During Assange's stay at the Ecuador embassy, the Spanish safety company UC Global SL was commissioned to upgrade embassy safety techniques. Company owner David MoralesIn addition to the order, he issued an order to install hidden microphones in the embassy rooms. There are many indications that Morales was the 1 who provided information to the CIA about Assange's meetings and talks with his legal team, which was peculiarly crucial as a consequence of Assange's plans to escape from the embassy and then from England.
Under US force 11 April 2019 president of Ecuador, Lenín Moreno, announced the decision to retreat asylum for Assange. Moreno utilized an argument provided by the CIA that Assange during his stay at the embassy “interpreted in the interior affairs of another states”. The British police arrested Assange on the same day at the Ecuadorian embassy. By betraying David Morales, the CIA triumphed at this phase in its efforts to extradite Assange. The Swedish pretext of Assange’s prosecution has expired. On November 19, 2019, the Swedish prosecution dropped charges against him in a rape case. However, this was not the end of the U.S. Service's efforts to extradite Assange to the United States. The extradition order was signed in June 2022 by the British Minister of the Interior Priti Patel.
Fighting to Release Assange
Referee Vanessa Baraitser from Westminster Magistrates’ Court refused to approve the U.S. government's request for extradition in January 2021 due to the harshness of Julian's conditions in the US prison system. The case, as a consequence of a stubborn appeal by Minister Priti Patel, went to the ultimate Court. ultimate Court justice Jonathan Swift – who had previously worked for various British government agencies as an lawyer and said his favourite clients were “security and intelligence agencies” – he rejected in June2023 2 applications from Julian Assange's lawyers to appeal his extradition.
Who accuses who defends Assange?
“Despite Julian Assange’s intentions towards WikiLeaks,” said Virginia Democratic Senator Mark Warner, “he became a direct associate in Russian efforts to weaken the West and undermine American security.” To this end, he expressed hope that "the British courts would rapidly hand him over to jail in the US so that he could yet get the justice he deserved."
A dead Democratic senator Dianne Feinstein She argued that “Assange should be crucified under the spying bill.” There was besides a voice of defense. Congresswoman Dana Rohrabacher from California she called Assange "a very honorable man." In January 2021, there was a Democratic congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard from Hawaii called Trump in the final days of his pardon as 1 of his last acts before leaving the White House.
Rashidy Tlaib, a Democratic congresswoman from Michigan, called on fellow members to put aside differences and add signatures to the lawyer General Merrick Garland, calling him to drop the charges. She stated that the argument utilized to prosecute Assange was "a notoriously undemocratic espionage bill", which "seriously undermines press freedom and the first amendment". So far, signatures have been collected from democratic Representatives of Jamaal Bowman, Ilhan Omar and Cori Bush. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has announced that it will sign the letter before completing the collection of signatures..
Assange’s crucial defence act is the adoption by the U.S. legislature of the Resolution of home of Representatives No. 934, presented on 13.12.2023 by the Republican of Arizona Paula A. Gosara, which expresses "convincing the home of Representatives that regular journalism is protected by the First Amendment and that the United States should retreat all charges and attempts to extradite Julian Assange".
The Australian Prime Minister asks the US to drop the charges against Julian Assange. besides at least 70 senators and members of parliament from Australia expressed their support for Assange, and his desire to return to his homeland, Assange is an Australian, confirmed by “many human rights defenders, freedom of the press and privacy rights. present Julian Assange stands next to the top heroes fighting for the right to proclaim the truth. His work challenges the structures of power, revealing uncomfortable truths hidden by governments.”
We are approaching the critical phase of Julian Assange's fight against American extradition, and appeals will be held at the British ultimate Court on 20 and 21 February 2024. The Confederation of the Polish Crown on 20 February at 16 p.m. organizes a demonstration under the British Embassy under the motto "Free Julian Assange".
