"We got to break through that trust in the mainstream..have some courage & curiosity to look behind it. Most people are good-hearted but the machine isn't good hearted. They're fooling & deceiving us..We got to look through it & decide for ourselves. WikiLeaks helped us do that."

Activist and Co-organizer of Boston Area Assange Defense talks about @NilsMelzer new book and his advocacy for #JulianAssange.
Susan asks others to get informed, speak up for Assange and join us in the fight to #FreeAssange!

Peace Activist, James Van Looy on the vendetta against Assange by the two corporate parties who are both heavily invested in the military industrial complex. The whole legal case against Assange has unraveled - there is no case against Julian Assange - he has committed no crime!

"We have to work for truth and make sure that people who tell the truth aren't punished...Julian Assange is a truthteller who brought out, through WikiLeaks, many many truths that shamed the United States and now he's being punished" Joe Kebartas, Veteran, Peace Activist

"Assange didn't shoot down civilians like our troops shot down unarmed civilians. He didn't shoot down two Reuters' journalists. He did not pull the trigger. But our United States government is pulling the trigger on Julian Assange...shut him up for good" Jane Binkerd, Activist

"Reason Assange is in jail..because we cannot be propped up to go to war if we know the truth...people trying to unionize but if you look at the press, you don't see 200K workers in Starbucks -you don't hear their voices, you hear the voice of the owner" Ed Childs Union organizer

Two men joined today's action bc @WZBC_Live Truth & Justice radio host Bob Funke announced our demo Sunday morning! Real time evidence of the power of the media to enact change!
"Assange is a victim of torture. Julian Assange is being tortured and it's outrageous!" John Robinson

'Truth and Justice' Sunday mornings 6-10am, host Bob Funke - thanks for announcing #AssangeDefenseBoston action!

"If you want to protect free speech...we must work to free Julian Assange - because Julian Assange exercised free speech...I will try to get [Nils Melzer's] book 'The Trial of Julian Assange'. Everybody should educate themselves about Assange..to survive in the 21C" John Robinson

"@NilsMelzer concludes that the #AssangeCase is of extreme societal importance because a country can't have legitimate dissent & expose war crimes resulting in impunity for the officials & life sentences for the whistleblowers and journalists." @Plucille54 #AssangeDefenseBoston
