When exposing a crime becomes a criminal offense, you are being ruled by criminals. ---Snowden
Thank you for quoting Edward.
The founding of this county was criminal. What’s new?
Thank you, also.❤️
It is our fundamental duty,,
JULIAN'S FATHER SPOKE ELOQUETLY AND ASSERTIVELY, WHILE CALMLY BACKING HIS SON, IN THE FIGHT FOR TRUTH, JUSTICE ... NO-MORE FCKERY, EH JILL BIDEN, OBAMA when you are OUTED! THE WORST OF THEM, ALONG WITH ALL THE BUSH'S, judicery, NATO, CIA, FBI ,... pissing on their cornflakes and Fruit Loops!
Both Assange and Edward Snowden should be freed and hailed as heroes. Do you hear me NSA? I'm sure you do.
They hear everything. But you already knew that :0
What was the early form of the NSA - and who was in control of it.
If you know your history well - then it will be an easy question to answer.
CLUE: You will see his picture on the currency
Carpenter Most likely they don't hear you, because you're not speaking directly to them.
@@andrew_koala2974 Well, George Washington WAS a pretty high-ranking Mason - Did I guess right?
@@fadedrose9 But a file IS being automatically compiled to be drawn up in case you ever do do something that comes to their attention !
There’s a campaign by Belmarsh prison where Julian Assange is detained, to show support by honking. Every time I drove past I honk. I hope Julian can hear it. Sending my support to him and his family ❤
Honking? HONKING?? I don't think anyone could come up with a more useless and empty gesture.
I'm sure that as long as people react to Assange's imprisonment with honking the Government will have no reason to release him...
@@waynemyers2469 that’s what Julian Assange support team have put in place, I believe Julian can hear it. I think it’s for him to know he’s not forgotten and people are not giving up on him. I’m sure hearing cars honking helps him to stay strong.
@@faye_bulous Honestly, I'll bet it becomes tiresome after a while considering that car-horns are purposefully designed to be jarring and strident. The truth is, the horn thing is probably more for the public, desperate to feel important in the face of a situation that is so far outside their ability to actually do anything about it. It would probably be more useful to throw rocks at the windows, maybe Julian would be able to squeeze through the hole and get away.
@@waynemyers2469 Or sending cakes en masse with nail files in.
@@peaceformula5830 Now you're talkin'.
I'm glad there are People fighting so hard for Freedom and Liberty.
Free Julian Assange
USA is not much better than Russia. Guantanamo, Snowden and Assange. May be even the Ukraine desater was planed by American democrats. Yes, Putins secret service killed and poisoned their enemies in Ukraine. But USA and GB tortured and wanted to sent whistleblowers into prison till they die
Wonder what they did with his companion animal, his beloved cat. Shame.
While he's in jail physically, WE, ,(esp. Journalists) are in jail "Psychologically"; Subconsciously afraid of Big Brother and Sister....
Incarcerate J. Biden....
Never going to happen. His future is a lifetime in Supermax
The persecution of Assange, Snowden and others for truth telling is disgusting
Evil hates truth.
@@peggybeckwith3479 Clearly
Amy Goodman is a hypocrite.Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzales sabotaged Julian Assange on her show in 2017,trying associate Assange w Russia which was not true.Goodman has been pushing the Ukraine War,the War in Syria,War with China,Russiagate(remember nut job Marcy Wheeler)Amy Goodman should rot in .......
One of these things is not like the other. Snowden is a conscientious whistleblower, Assange is foreign agent for the Russians. Hope he gets his just deserves
While media continues to push disinformation with no repercussions.
The Belmarch Tribunal a Becon of Light in these Dark times we are living in.
These people represent the best in Humanity; God bless them all!❤
Tank you all the good and courageous journalists who still fighting against this massive corrupt angry government's and agencies agenda. God bless all you, freedom for Julian Assange
Well said. Thank you.
FREE JULIAN ASSANGE NO EXTRADITION
Julian Assange and Edward Snowden are heros, and so is Chelsea Manning.
American citizens HERO'S are whistle blowers of all agencies 🤔
Don't even put Assange in the same class as the others, he's no whistleblower
Thank you to all that spoke at this council of Truth seekers
“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends." - Martin Luther King Jr.
Thank you Amy Goodman - a treasure to humanity and the entire panel, thank you to each and every one of you!! This brought such sadness to my spirit.
Julian Assange, our own hero paying the ultimate price for choosing truth over complacency. American Democracy, where forth art thou?
No-one was jailed for the lies on the war in Iraq, only Julian Assange for telling the truth... 🤣😭
Seem like we in where truth can't be spoken.
I served in the military. I know it was worth it for Julian Assange and Edward Snowden to expose government crimes.
thank you for your service 🙏
Another life that matters enough is enough free Julian Assange the voice for freedom 🇦🇺🇺🇸☮️🙏👍
The very term "Communication Management Unit" should send chills down the spines of anyone that believes in Freedom.
Julian and Edward are true heroes and must be FREED!
He published the truth whilst simultaneously redacting sensitive information, the silence on this issue from so called democratic nations who claim to espouse freedom and human rights is really fear of USA, peace and love to Julian and his wife Stella, thank you and never give up the fight FREE ASSANGE ❤🙏
My nation's gov is now a totalitarian fascist state.
His own government bowed to their American masters and did not advocate for a national hero. ??
For whom do they work. ?
@@chrisdeason4904is ra hell
This is not only about the freedom of the press but also about the freedom of speech in general: for the writers, artists, musicians and all creatives that want to express themselves in some way.
This is justice. This is truth. This is what Citizens United took from us and so many more. What they're doing to him is disgusting, unforgivable, and inhumane.
Never forget the silence of the UK mainstream media.
AND our Political representatives...!
As a once proud English man I can honestly say I'm disgusted with the ruling class and fuming that our media cover up and push the agendas of the unelected
Just like US media ,silent on everything the Biden administration wants suppressed. Its all corrupt !!
Greenspan?
What silence?
I as Muslim must inform all of you . That all Muslims people round world which their number comes to 1 millerad and 800 thousands are supporting the Julian and they know him as most brave man on the earth. I am sure, They are all praying for his case. May God save him . And save you all and reward you abundantly. Amin
Solidarity
@Lee Westlake Yep I'm a non-denominational Christian but I have a lot more in common with Muslims that most of my countrymen who are atheists at best, satanists and pagans at worst.
God bless you.

@@seasonedbeefs He won't. You will.
Great Amy, we love you and love Democracy Now.
Absolutely great speech for the truth, fair and balanced. Thanks Democracy Now.
It's truly perverse that the US can pursue a foreign national for work outside the USA
They do and the can. Do called Patriot Act. Patriotism my ass. More like a pack of little Emperor's after their self interest pounds of flesh. How dare, he face up to truth and facts about the leadership of USA in particular. CIA is the bully boys for USA INCORPORTED. Not for, by, and of the people at all. Absolute disgrace.
It's communism bro, look up the 45 planks
The discusting part is the spineless UK Government and boneless British press.
It shows how much control they've been given by our elected governments.
And didn't do anything to the attackers, mostly from Saudi Arabia or whole them responsible, and kept the families from suing, and another group was in Florida ,the us government was training had to be sent home cause of a mass shooting they were involve in,had these group been spied on May be they could have saved some American lives, but we don't count ,we are do free ,living the good life,if some foreign killers decide to kill a few American citizen that's ok.
Thank you 🙏 to all who fight for Julian and the Freedom of Speech ….May God bless and protect us all.
Justice is needed: free Julian Assange!
Thank you everyone for being there
Assange is just another extremely important reason why the First and the Second Amendment have to be protected.
*I keep hearing people say "Julian Assange damaged the reputation of the United States". This is not true; the United States of America clearly embarrassed itself by it's own actions; Julian Assange merely pointed public attention to those actions.*
I haven't been in those circles of ppl had to be ignoring a lot US has been embrassassing hypocrites since the beginning having a slogan "land of the free" while being built by enslaved people
I think the US is embarrassing itself every day by persecuting a man who embodies our own Constitution's first amendment.
Exactly. This could be solved by the US with dignity - by addressing these crimes, admitting the damages done and repairing them. After all, the US is an example for the rest of the world so it could have a positive influence or at least it would make this country credible in the face of the current war between Russia and Ukraine.
Democracy Now...best news show ever...thank you Amy Goodman and all who shared...
The silence of Australia, since Julian's arrest & all the different governments that have been in power since 2007 AND all the media nobody has come to his defence: He's even not talked about in Australia. One of the most inhuman acts of cowardice in the face of humanity.
Shows how TRUTH is not wanted... the most precious God given gift for the survival of every man, woman and child.
We cannot live without Truth... we die!
Dear God we pray for true justice against the real war criminals and protection for your child Julian. Brave souls are rare. Peel the scales from their eyes and do what is right.
🙏🏻✨️🤍
Amen
Amen
A gathering of some the finest people on this planet. We need to replace the criminals we have in power now with these outstanding soles. I believe Assange will be freed because of your work. The message is now broadcast far and wide and we are all feeling the tyranny now. If anything other than release of Assange eventuates the powerful know their days are numbered.
The powerful possess all the deadly force weaponry. They want an excuse to use it.
@@jeanneserrano3397 END YOUR PLEAD, IS TELLING WITHOUT CONTENT ! LOL.
@@huibwetzel9299 Sorry but don't understand your response as do a lot of posting daily. What subject or specific were you referring to exactly. Considering all of what is/has been happening in the world - only have 10 fingers of trying to plug "holes in the dike" of rampant willful ignorance.
Little Emperor's is my description of the duplicitous scoundrels, representative of current upper echelons of Power Governing USA. Even pushing WW3 now. Pack of assholes. That $100 billion sent to puff of wind in Ukraine, for demolishment of Ukraine, by Next door neighbor. Instigation by bunch of pirates on the high seas, roaming for open boundaries, used to do the same. As someone stated might as well have the Jolly Roger on the warheads.
Absolute grattitude and solidarity to all these brilliant men and women speaking up on all of our behalf. Many thanks for decency and honesty....
I am really proud of you guys . We are all behind you. Free Julian. He need to be freed
Truth telling, hold these governments accountable they're are not above the law. Free Julian Assange Thank you ✊🏾
God Bless him and his Family... The world must Save him ❤️ A True Freedom Fighter....
🙏🏻✨️🤍
Thanks from the UK to Mr Corbyn, driven from leadership of our Labour Party, by Media LIES...to be replaced by Starmer, who not only endorsed govid idiocy; but urged even more assinity!..something Corbyn would NEVER have done..
My HERO
Truth and true justice must prevail. 👍🏽
As an Australian I’m ashamed that successive governments have done nothing to free ite citizen held under false accusations!
"An educated slave will not be a slave for long."
There's the rub right there.
That's why slaves in the plantations were forbidden to learn to read.
As an Aussie in Texas, it gladdens me to no end that the PM of Australia is doing the "right thing" We call it a fair go and it's part of Australian Culture, Fair Go for Julian Assange, the truth speaks louder than lies, however, It saddens how the United States can be so hypocritical and their over bearing blatancy to hide the dirty truth. Blood on Bidens Hands
Thank you Amy Goodman you are Americas #1 reporter God Bless America 🇺🇲
Great to hear all these speakers, between them all they give all the reasons why Julian Assange should not be prosecuted. He WILL be free this year we will make sure. For Press Freedom, for the 1st Ammendment of the US. Sometimes we have to stand up, that’s what democracy means.
Liberals loved Julian... until he published the material that revealed the corruption and criminality of H. Clinton... After that they collectively turned against him... That tells you about the hypocrisy of American liberals...
Save that constructs > devices.
Capitalism being a conservative construct and democracy a liberal device, democracy will always fail in the face of capitalism.
In capitalism, no lives matter..
The US Capital Est will let him die before they let him win.
Him being free is a death knell to the USCE and their strategy.
So true especially now
Julian was replaced ages ago,the day they filmed him being dragged from the embassy was all staged,he has been with his family and cousins.
It was HRC and all the people that Julian exposed that wanted him dead,not Trump Julian was exposing the very people that Trump is now destroying.
I hope with all my heart that Julian is freed but there Really are NO guarantees. The people that he's up against are, although repulsive, powerful in a way that our fractured populations are going to find so difficult to hold to account but I admire your optimism 😁👌😁
Freedom of the press, Freedom for Assange
Thanks for fighting for the people, for the rights, and for the TRUTH ❤
"Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost," Thomas Jefferson wrote to a friend in 1786.
“All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.” Thomas Jefferson.
I think Jefferson was quoting the bible...The only thing needed for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing...something like that.
Proverbs 24:11-12
It's ironic that you would quote a slave holding hypocrite on the issue of conscience!!!!
Nowadays it's the internet and conspiracy theories and false information that's destroying everything
@@npguru😂😂😂
Prayer for Julian his wife, his dear little boys all of his family, all the others held against their will to-day everywhere all the wonderfull speakers to-night all the brave people speaking out against injustice the audience TRUTH wins in the end, justice will win, prevail,keep the vision and hope in positive thoughts to carry on LOVE manifesting and our freedom of speech is our God given right NOT a politician right to decide on control...
Amen, 🎯🙏❤️🦅
What we really need is a new government-one that is committed to truth, fairness and justice
IN OUR DREAMS... CRIMINALS RUN THE WORLD 🌎
"...ACCESS to information- THAT is why freedom of the press is so important"
Drop the charges now!
When they brought Assange out of the embassy in handcuffs, my friends were poking fun of his appearance and laughing, I had broken down and began crying, and said "So this is how they treat heroes these days?!" And I asked my friends just WTH was wrong with them. That's the first time I've cried in a long time, I was physically sick.
Your friends are brainwashed that's all.
Trevor Noah was doing the same thing but worse, actually mocking Julian's mental breakdown. His sick audience laughing along merrily.
It seems people have been desensitized, programmed away from normal human empathy.
😂
Wow!😕
Me too
Because you have a heart!
Thank you for giving the American people this important information
I love and respect Julian for everything he stands for.. God please protect and free him.
A big shout out to the protesters who give up their weekends and weekdays to stand outside Belmarsh prison and protest on Julian’s behalf, there always very friendly when I’m stopped at the traffic where they distribute their latest literature regarding Julian.
Do you know Assange personally? If not, curious why you (and others) consistently call him by his first name.
@@historyiwitness5915 Hello Mr Witness, or may I address you as History?
Because referring to him by his last name alone is dehumanising.
It’s why Governments would prefer it if people referred to Julian by his last name. So that we’re less likely to feel a connection to him and care about what’s happened to him.
@@historyiwitness5915 xd
@@historyiwitness5915 - Your comment is futile
As an American, I was grateful to see what Julian Assange revealed. He appeared to have no political agenda with his Wikileaks releases. He aimed to reveal the truth of things that would be beneficial to ALL human beings across the globe.
When the Biden administration can prove he had a nefarious agenda, then I will support his extradition. Until then, leave him alone and let him be free!
Julian is incredibly brave & resilient. Imagine having the guts to speak out like he did, and still does, knowing that it could end your life, either physically or by lifelong imprisonment, and yet you love the truth and freedom, and therefore people & their rights so much, that you do it anyway. He gave up his freedom for all of ours.
He is not a criminal, those that seek to shut him up & cover up their lies and murder are the criminals.
They want him dead or permanently imprisoned but the murderers he exposed walk free to re-commit their crimes again and again.
His captors must never escape their dues. They must release him now or face the consequences immediately
If I can see the whole truth-telling stories in the whole world and be able to summarize them, it is because of Julian Assange's eyes who can see the truth.
Democracies are called “free nations.” Nothing can be further from the truth… “To the Republic for which it stands!”
Most have no idea of the difference. Brainwashed by MSM regurgitating the rhetoric of a mob rule.
I'm an Australian. It makes me sick that here in Australia we hear almost nothing from the main stream media or our politicians about Assange, an Australian citizen. Successive governments, 6 prime minister's to my count, crickets! There is no doubt a conspiracy between the US,Australia and the media to silence this man and consequently journalism. Free Assange!!!
Same,I am from Brisbane... We hear next nothing as well... Disgusting !
Correct, crickets.
Kj88h@@justanotherperson584csx
It's no different here. Our governments all over the world are equally corrupted, and no matter one's own citizenship, the people don't matter to the government. We are pawns, and what was an original intention for the US as a sovereign country will fail because of the foundation on which it was built. I will respect and appreciate whichever American President has the courage clarity and conviction to Pardon J.A. Freedom of Speech and transparency with regard to information matters. TRUTH matters.
Ditto to this post by us in Canada.
Praying for Julian’s safety and be freed too, thanks a lot for this congregation, the truth prevails dangerously. God bless us all especially injustice against true journalism.
Thank you, Jeremy Corbyn, from one American to another.
We should lead the world, as we brag we do. "Land of the Free and Home of the Brave" must be true for everyone. And thank you Steven Donziger for your service to the cause.
20:80:00 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."
Dr King was unique in how he wove fantastically factual logical tapestries with words,, for every enemy we kill in Vietnam we spend $330,000, for every person classified as poor in America we spend $50,, it's impossible to argue with such intense logic as that...
That Martin Luther King Jr. What a highly intelligent person he was. Another humanist, murdered by those whom seemed to believe themself his better. If those, whom piss people collectively off, there is going to be a rebalance. When I was a child, we were taught about The Suffragettes. I shall not forget. We WILL overcome, injustice. We WILL.
Where we go one, we go all !!! Written on JFK Jr ship bell. I will expose my father's killers if I have to take down the entire government ".
Free mason evil
Feeling the pain . We must save him
He is a hero. History will not look kindly on everyone complicit in persecuting him.
✊🏻✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾✊🏽 Long Live the Revolutionary! The fight for real justice, social justice, & justice for all is never easy. Corporate interests feel that freedom fighters should be locked up. We are the untamed…Freedom cannot happen if we are not informed, if we are not on all fronts. Fighting for Freedom is not the act of doing wrong. It’s the actions of doing what is right. ✊🏽
We unlearn, we relearn, we learn then we educate 🙏🏽
Thank you Amy!
Time to RISE citizens against power 💪
Time to resist.
Before Summer of 2024
If we don't we're done. Mass disobedience without a figurehead
@@matthewstone1362 Yes.
A disgraceful lack of coverage from so many of the big news outlets. Shameful the way Assange has been treated!

Watching the whole video, mostly appreciated, well-done and be courageous, in defended truth and justice. Something I try to do everyday, and it's so beautiful, and noone can deny me from doing so. Free Julien Assenge, and others who did what they've to do. 💕
👏👏 I couldn't 👏👏👏stop clapping 👏👏👏 all the way through the 👏👏 amazing lineup of 👏👏speakers you had on 👏👏
👏 Free Julian Assange 👏 Free Journalism 👏 FREE SPEECH 👏 what an amazing night 👏
WE NEED WIKILEAKS NOW & JULIAN FREE NOW !!
A chill runs down my spine when I hear these speakers and when I recall the tragic fate of Aaron Swartz, Ed Snowden and Thomas Drake to name a few among many others who stood for freedom, peace and common sense when it was in the interest of humanity and at their great personal expense. Wherever you are now, stand up and say something…do something in the name of justice and for mankind.
You could probably add Wikileaks associate Arjen Kampuis, whose disappearance was explained as a kayaking accident.
That's easy 2 answer. Get the Illuminati out of our Democratic party. All the alphabet agencies have them in there and that's a major problem. They keep lying people r tired of it. We know who the bad ones r and we're watching.
Thank you for mentioning Aaron Swartz.
Our loss of Aaron Schwartz is a real tragedy. He was such a visionary dude, I’m his age and I remember how much momentum we felt cresting with the brilliantly balanced design of Reddit and everything else that emerged around that time that showed the direction was towards greater freedom, truth, and justice. We have to keep that momentum rolling, no matter what barriers we face.
👏👏👏💜🌻
Thank you so much! Your work is extraordinarily important. Unfathomable. Thank you for having the guts and integrity. The nation needs reliable role models.
❤❤Thankyou Amy & Democracy Now PLEASE Do Not Stop until the Innocent are FREE & can live Fairly & SAFELY in OUR WORLD!!!❤❤ 😢
Thank you to everyone who was there at this conference
They are brave folks. God bless them.
"if Julian is extradited to the US, then the Statue of Liberty should be dismantled and returned to France." - makes sense.
Should have been returned when we sent US citizens to "internment" camps
Many liars in politics have set the stage for us people to believe we need them to protect us from truth! Truth will win when we the people expose elete liars&hold them accountable for crimes against humanity !
This world needs more brave people like Julian and Donziger
Julian Assange WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!
I urge anyone living in the UK to write to their MP and have them clearly define their stance on Julian Assange's situation and their view of protection of whistle-blowers in general. Too many MP's have simply washed their hands of this and simply look away but it is their responsibility to address this and it is our responsibility to keep raising the issues until they do.
They got together to make us look bad? It's not like he could have found an attack on video layed some audio from a video game or a clip with no explanation as to why a Chinook transport helicopter and not the Apache Combat attack helicopter in a danger zone like their's someone pissed about dead journalists they feel like one of them , is there any protocol in war for journalists to say in contact with near by force's to avoid friendly fire I think with technology being what it is those journalists have an obligation to make operations aware or risk unidentified movement packing heavy looks like missions cross paths in war. US not the only operations in desert storm, NATO.....
Agree with U America not the only one in the war!!!!!!!! So why just pick on the Trump Administration??????????????? AND WHY JUST NOW
ATTACK Pres. Trump When The Leftist, Markium Rurning This
Country ???????????¿?
Trump has been the only one that has DONE ANYTHING TO HELP THE USA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOW MUCH MONEY IS, AGAIN, CHANGING HANDS ???????????¿?
DESTROY THIS COUNTRY
LIKE BIDEN AND OBAMA
HAVE ALREADY DONE??????????
WHERE ARE YOU ALL GOING TO LIVE THEN,
WHEN THEY'RE FINISHED
😮 😢😢😢 ????????????
STILL THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our MPs? are they really our MPs? Labour or Tori and the British Media, they all working for same ring master, look what they did to Jeremy Corbyn, and how they replaced him with a clown.
Seems cruel and unusual punishment what he's endured thus far I can't imagine he will get a fair trial in the States either and I think Australia should advocate more for him too as Canada had to do for the two Michaels held as political prisoners in China for years on spying allegations.
He speaks Truth in such a calm, soft yet Penetrating manner, one can hardly turn away but listened enthralled by his truth speaking. . .
You can't have Democracy without Justice.
So many good people speaking for Julian, THANK YOU
And so few news outlets covering it...
Do you know Assange personally? If not, why do you call him by his first name, like you know him? Odd.
@@historyiwitness5915 Out of this whole debauched situation, that's the level you are coming at? This is grown up stuff and you are out of your depth
I've completely changed my mind about Julian Assange. He needs to be pardoned as soon as possible. That said, as Leo Strauss says somewhere, "The political problem consists in reconciling the requirment of wisdom, with the requirement of consent.
A massive respect to everybody standing up for Julian Assange, human rights and Democracy!!!!!
Agree 👍
Yes 100% agree, great to see that their are still some good, honest and courageous journalists ...God Bless everyone 🙏 who have taken a stand against tyranny and stood by a giant of a man who dared to expose their evil crimes.
Why is democracy good?
Every American should demand justice it's our country and does not belong to a few corrupt politicians or a corrupt so called president .Biden should have been fired long ago !
But Amy Goodman in particular was voting for the ppl who had the power to drop the charges off! Just saying! Free Assange NOW,if not yesterday!
Any criminal activities and criminal policies against any sovereign countries should be unceremoniously exposed and unmasked.
Stellar tribunal. Some of the bravest truth tellers that are still free. Fight on! Thank you!!!!! ✊🏼
Daly? mick Wallis ??good people asking straight foward questions wen no1 can anwer such questions are the very people are the 1s committing war crimes in the name of demarcey the very man that tried 2 tell the world wat your government an fake bought media
Why Isn't Irish minister Clair
Y THEY NOT IN PRISON
Abolish the "Espionage act" !
and the freeloader new deal
And the so called “patriot act”
Thank you very much all of you, so courageus!
Forums such as this need to be protected & deemed absolutely necessary for all nations seeking insight ,clarity & unobstructed justice for the innocent & the falsely accused at all cost! This is the protocol for a nations constitutional rights to be applauded,revered & also preserved unanimously! The courts seem to have their own justice system certainly not based off of circumstantial evidence but solely & mostly due to influence & motives biased to one side or the other! We have to preserve integrity & liberty throughout the judicial system to ensure our freedoms are not taken lightly or for granted! Love this collective effort of real Americans standing together in solidarity to expose those who oppose transparency,the Constitution and due process which is our unalienable rights! Take a bow! but most of all be diligent and cautious of traitors & deceivers!
Freedom for Assange & Snowden⚖️🗽🇱🇷
Thank you everyone. Time will always tell. We all know he is a good person.
Note that a PERSON is a CORPORATE fiction (creates in the kate 15th Century)
for the purpose of conducting commerce
A PERSON is a DEAD entity that im-PERSON-ates the living Soul - and has stolen
the identity - using a name that sounds the same - except - that it is written in
ALL CAPS - as are the names of the other DEAD entities in the cemetery.
NO one is born a PERSON
One is born either a Man or WoMan ( two kinds of Man) collectively known as ManKind
They are given "One Soul" Thus they are some'One'
Some 'body' refers to a DEAD entity in the cemetery - That is where every'body' is
sent to and commonly buried along with all the other bodies.
You should have learned that by now - had you been paying attention to detail.
Unfortunately the CORPORATE GOVERNMENT indoctrination system they call Schools -
has created a population of ZOMBIES
ZOMBIES have eyes but cannot see - ears and cannot gear
It is time to pay attention to detail and step out of the ZOMBIE zone
--- You can do it ---
This is amazing !!!! Well done to everyone attending this event. All of you are amazing human beings fighting for justice and against the US government, which believes that they are superior and are abusing their position and power, and are hypocrats following double standards. Nobody should feel superior, and above the law, including the American government !!!!! It is terrible and appalling how people have to fight sooooooooooooo incredibly hard for justice in this world, while some human beings who are in powerful positions believe that they are superior and can punish those innocent. I love and admire everyone's bravery and beautiful speeches here. All of you are amazing, wonderful people who are standing up against injustice. Thank you for doing this. I love all of these speakers. They are highly articulate, and they have made great points.
You are amazing too. Worth your weight in Gold. Your passionate words ❤️🌎
> DF Since your comment conveys the distaste you clearly feel for the United States government, it should please you to know that China has stated numerous times that they intend to replace America as the world's Superpower. Now that Biden's in the White House, considering the close financial and business ties that the Biden family has with China, that country has a good chance of attaining their stated goal. If you are an American citizen living in America, just wait until China is at the helm - they give new meaning to your notion of 'abuse of power' - you ain't seen abuse until you're under China's rule. Think I'm kidding? Is your answer "no" or "no"? Personally, I am grateful to have been born in America and to be living here. Why do you think folks worldwide continue to cross our southern border to live here? The people in this panel are not "fighting" for justice - they're speaking for it - if they actually want to stand up for Julian Assange, they need to use their influence to do something about it, not just talk about it.
respect to everyone working to support freedom of information and right of citizens to know about criminal activities of the politicians
Its seems unreal that Julian has been hounded, for 14 years and in that time 4 years in Belmarsh prison....
To all that have spoken , thank you.
To Julian's family I feel the time is near.
God speed for your son, husband, daddy and your brother's return safely to you all...
Free !!!

Do you also know Assange personally? If not, why do you call him by his first name, like you've met him? Odd.
@@historyiwitness5915 ?????????????. What I find odd, is your question....
We The People have to demand a free press and prosecute the real criminals in office.
I pray the Assange family sues the American Government I am certain any honest judge and jury would rule in there favor.
Assange should be freed with a public apology for a start. He is a brave strong man and a high spiritual being. Free Julian. He deserves a medal for what he's done. Those that put him there should be ashamed of themselves. The truth is out and nothing will change that. The truth always comes out in the end. The end of darkness is nigh.
Thank you for leading the way of truth ❤🙏🏽 ❤ may great spirit protect and guide you all🎉. 🙏🏽 🎉
Thank you for doing this!
HE HAS SHONE A BRIGHT LIGHT ON OUR FREEDOMS. HE SHOULD BE GIVEN THE HIGHEST HONOR TO MAN IN THE SERVICE TO HUMANITY....FREE JULIAN ASSANGE!!!
The worrying fact of the silence of elected politicians
Silence speaks a thousand words.
🎯 💯 🤔
Liberals loved Julian... until he published the material that revealed the corruption and criminality of H. Clinton... After that they collectively turned against him... That tells you about the hypocrisy of American liberals...
and the mainstream media.
@@yvonnem.langlois5197 YES,
a lot of politicians are first and foremost worried for their own future electability... if you "turn on your own government" (allegedly) like Assange and others did/do then you can pretty much kiss your politicians career good bye.. decency is a flaw in politician.
