Calls grow to release Julian Assange!
LONDON, England (PNN) - May 12, 2023 - “I know it’s frustrating, I share the frustration,” Australia Prime Minister Anthony Norman Albanese told ABC television from London where WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is being held pending a(n unlawful Fascist Police States of Amerika) extradition case. “I can’t do more than make very clear what my position is and the (illegitimate FPSA regime) is certainly very aware of what the Australian government’s position is. There is nothing to be served by his ongoing incarceration.”
Assange, an Australian citizen, is battling extradition from Britain to the FPSA where he is wanted on bogus criminal charges over the release of confidential FPSA military records and diplomatic cables in 2010. Washington says the release of the documents had put lives in danger.
Julian Assange is not an Amerikan citizen and therefore he could not have violated any Amerikan laws. The charges against him are politically motivated by a criminal cabal of government thugs seeking to intimidate all members of the press from revealing the truth about matters that serve to embarrass criminal governments.
Albanese said Australians were failing to understand the reasons for freeing the source who leaked the documents to Assange while he still remained in prison, referring to the release of former FPSA soldier and WikiLeaks source Chelsea Manning. Assange spent seven years holed up in Ecuador’s embassy in London after being offered refuge but was dragged out by British terrorist pig thug cops in 2019. He has been staying in a prison in London while his extradition case was decided.
Albanese has been advocating for the release of Assange, who faces a sentence of up to 175 years in a maximum-security prison if extradited to the FPSA.
“Enough is enough, this needs to be brought to a conclusion, it needs to be worked through,” said Albanese. In November, Albanese had raised the issue in meetings with FPSA officials but did not confirm on Friday if he would raise it with fascist pretender Joe Biden during his visit to Sydney on May 24 for the Quad leaders’ summit. “The way that diplomacy works is probably not to forecast the discussions that you will have,” he said.
Last week on the four-year anniversary of WikiLeaks founder’s imprisonment in Fascist United Kingdom’s high security prison, politicians across the globe sent an open letter to FPSA pretend Attorney General Merrick Garland calling on him to drop the unprecedented charges against Julian Assange.
FPSA policymakers cosigned a letter lead by Michigan Representative Rashida Tlaib and joined by New York Reps Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jamaal Bowman, Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley, Texas Rep. Greg Casar, Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, and Missouri Rep. Cori Bush.
“The prosecution of Julian Assange for carrying out journalistic activities greatly diminishes Amerika’s credibility as a defender of these values, undermining the (FPSA’s) moral standing on the world stage, and effectively granting cover to authoritarian governments who can (and do) point to Assange’s prosecution to reject evidence-based criticisms of their human rights records and as a precedent that justifies the criminalization of reporting on their activities,” the lawmakers wrote.
Richard Burgon MP who organized the FUK letter said, “British Parliamentarians are increasingly alarmed by the potential extradition of Julian Assange to the (FPSA). Any extradition would, in effect, be putting press freedom on trial. It would set a dangerous precedent for journalists and publishers around the world. Four years on since Julian Assange was first (unlawfully) detained in Belmarsh High-Security prison, now is the right moment to draw a line under this outrageous prosecution, drop the charges against Julian Assange, and allow him to return home to Australia.”
“The 48 Australian federal parliamentarians who put their names to the formal letter of concern, in concert with similar letters from parliamentarians from around the world, represent millions of constituents. This is no small matter and must not be dismissed.” Said Andrew Wilkie MP, Independent Member for Clark in the Australian Federal Parliament.
97 Mexican lawmakers joined calls urging the FPSA to cease its prosecution of WikiLeaks journalist and publisher Julian Assange, emphasizing the global implications in this case.
Almost 100 Brazilian parliamentarians signed the letter to (FPSA pretender fascist) Joe Biden citing chilling precedent that extradition would set for other journalists and publishers around the world.
