“Journalism is not a crime”

So why is @Wikileaks’ Julian Assange jailed in a maximum security prison, in which people such as Abu Qatada have been imprisoned in? 🙃

Julian Assange. In his own words:

"Saudi and Quatar support ISIS and the Clinton Foundation"

By @sahouraxo
Just your daily reminder that Julian Assange faces up to 175 years in jail merely for exposing US war crimes in #Iraq to the world.

Meanwhile, those who invaded Iraq on a pack of lies, killing a million people, are still out there planning new wars against 🇮🇷&🇻🇪.

“once telling the truth has become a crime, while the powerful enjoy impunity, then your own rights may well be next in line."

'What’s the difference between what the Mail on Sunday did and what #Wikileaks and Julian #Assange did?'

@georgegalloway outlines the hypocrisy that is being played out in the debate surrounding ‘press freedom’ in the #UK.
The UN Rapporteur for torture, Nils Melzer, reports that #Assange is being tortured in a concerted & prolonged defamation campaign by the #UK🇬🇧, #US🇺🇸, #Sweden🇸🇪 & #Ecuador🇪🇨. Nils Melzer & Rico Brouwer
"They established the #UN🇺🇳 & mandated people like me to observe these rights. If they don’t take these #UN🇺🇳 reports seriously, then it really puts into question the validity of the commitment of these states to human rights.
-Nils Melzer-
‘If the #USA🇺🇸acted in good faith, they would have investigated the crimes that were exposed by #WikiLeaks & prosecuted the torture & the murder & so on that was exposed, & the corruption..."-Nils Melzer- 1/2
"...Nothing of that happened. But the Whistle-blower that leaked the information and the journalist that published, these were the people that were prosecuted." -Nils Melzer- 2/2
"Clearly it seems that they want to make an example of him (#JulianAssange), and to make sure that what he has been doing is not going to be imitated by others."-Nils Melzer-
"..if you have 10.000 of these organisations & journalists popping up that use the net so effectively to expose secret information, that obviously would no longer be manageable for these states...& that’s what these states are afraid of’." -Nils Melzer-
‘If we allow this precedent to be set... that they can prosecute journalists for exposing true information about crimes committed by Govts, if that becomes a crime, & these officials aren’t prosecuted, then we really no longer have the rule of law."
