Opinion: The @Guardian’s Desperate Attempt To Connect #Assange To #Russiagate Backfires

#Unity4J #FreeAssange #ReconnectJulian #Manafort #WikiLeaks

disobedientmedia.com/2018/11/opinio…
#TheGuardian’s article seeks to deflect from the reality that the prosecution of #Assange will focus on @xychelsea-era releases and #Vault7, not the DNC or Podesta emails.

As noted previously by @DisobedientNews:

disobedientmedia.com/2018/11/assang…
On timing: Assange legal representative Hanna Jonasson (@AssangeLegal) quickly noted that the smear was published just hours before the EDVA ruling:

Prior to the Guardian's hit-piece, the intelligence community of the UK and US were on the defensive foot, with numerous humanitarian and press-freedom groups speaking out against the United States accidentally-confirmed prosecution of Assange.

After the Guardian’s hit-piece, @WikiLeaks was inevitably forced back into a defensive footing. No matter how ridiculous the allegations published by @Guardian, the current media frenzy is singularly focused –for or against– #Assange’s alleged link to the #Russiavape narrative.

"What we heard today was Mary Robinson essentially reciting for BBC Radio listeners the content of the statement issued by the Dubai ruler's court." #FreeLatifa
Sounds an awful lot like the forced-drugging #Latifa described her sister being "treated with."

Familiar? I think so. #FreeLatifa

Merry Christmas everyone.

Powerful synthesis of the evidence thus far on #Guccifer2 from @with_integrity:

Guccifer 2.0 Game Over – Year End Review

A Christmas present that everyone who appreciates the truth will thoroughly enjoy.

Discussing the #Forensicator's first analysis of #NGPVAN:

"That study has been the subject of some controversy, although mostly built on conflating the findings with various interpretations of them, and with reporting on the study conducted by third parties."

Gillard government betrayed Assange. She deliberately passed a new law after talking with the US thereby "creating" a justification for extradition just before her making an embarrassing idiotic claim that wikileaks was illegal. businessinsider.com.au/australian-gov…

More evidence of Australia's betrayal of Assange by colluding with the US. This is from 2010 onwards. Labor party. People involved are the same who were involved in the coup that removed Kevin Rudd as PM. telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews…

This pathetic hack attacked #WikiLeaks and #Assange with smears and lies, now he loudly complains that nobody will return his calls. LMFAO. Put someone decent on the beat, @AP. #FreeASSANGE
A-a-a-and now we know why this pathetic @AP hack is so desperate for "content". He has new smears to publish! #FreeASSANGE #Unity4J
AP claim they have "tens of thousands of files". But they are leading with Israel Samir asking the Russian embassy to give @JulianAssange asylum in 2010? It's well known @wikileaks was trying every option at the time. As Kristinn Hrafnsson says, that's “rather uninteresting.”

Anyone familiar w/ propaganda techniques will see right through this article's lies, & figure its true intentions.

We will deconstruct it for you, lie by lie, falsehood by falsehood, by tomorrow (Sunday) - stay tuned! 😉

abcnews.go.com/Politics/isola…
Sorry to begin w/ the end of the article, but this is to show how crappy a job @abcnews is doing: they already had to fix a serious 'mistake' where they 'only' made their readers believe Assange is facing charges when he is not.

Way to go @abcnews... but we're not done yet!
Exposing the lies & manipulation in this article is like entering a long sewer: there's poop everywhere you look.

On the one hand, @JulianAssange is being tortured in the heart of Europe's media capital because his intrepid public interest publishing has stoked the ire of the world's most powerful government, its allies & their nebulous network of intelligence organs.#FreeAssange @AssangeMrs
1. On the other, there appears to be a callous cross-border conspiracy, bolstered by Ecuadorean, UK & Australian complicity, to force him out of the embassy where he sought refuge as a political refugee over his concerns relating to US extradition. #FreeAssange #NoExtradition
2. As a result of this cruel ploy, @JulianAssange, an award-winning journalist & editor, is effectively being tortured in the heart of London as the majority of prominent UK human rights organisations & mainstream media outlets remain silent. #FreeAssange @AssangeMrs

LIVE NOW in Support of Julian Assange. All who wish to join forces for a better world, for all! #FreeAssange

Lions ROAR!!!

#Qanon
There is a large contingency in Australia, to bring Julian home safely via extradition! Being discussed now, an act of humanity that Julian is not subjected to 'torture, cruel or unusual punishment,' with no crime having been committed, to no longer be detained.
