British High Court Grants WikiLeaks Founder Julian Assange the Right to Appeal U.S. Extradition

Support our work: www.democracynow.org/donate?c...
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange on Monday won the right to appeal his extradition to the United States. Assange's lawyers argued before the British High Court that the U.S. government provided "blatantly inadequate" assurances that Assange would have the same free speech protections as an American citizen if extradited from Britain. Assange has spent more than a decade facing the threat of extradition to the U.S., where he faces up to 175 years in prison for publishing classified documents exposing U.S. war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. "This is a victory for Julian Assange in that he lives on to fight another day, his case lives on to fight another day. But he's not out of Belmarsh [Prison] yet, and he's not in the clear yet," says Chip Gibbons, policy director of Defending Rights & Dissent. "This could still end in him being sent to the U.S. And the person who can stop this is Joe Biden and Merrick Garland."

When are we going to be fair and up Trump's charges to a capital offense, and at the least put him in prison for life?

[@tinydancer_]

@@ronstephen-wy4ib You are 100% correct. He can publish the STORY on paper or the intent. Most people consume their news electronically in this day and age. He can write a hundred books, no crime in that. He can give interviews and SPEAK about the content of the DOCUMENTS. Fair play. But publishing the actual Classified DOCUMENTS themselves IS HIGHLY illegal. Whether the content in them has moral merit is besides the point. Herein lies the problem. Unfortunately for Assange and family there is no moral component to this set of charges. There's no grey area in the US Criminal Penal Code by statute. It's like being "a little bit pregnant.

Just let this man free before he dies in prison! I cannot believe that human beings do these terrible things to other human beings. Such an evil world. 😢😢

We all Julian, free Julian Assange now

[@preshisify1]

They are suppose to full pardon Julianne Assange, as well as Edward Snowden, they said so, and if it's not done by November, then when RFK jr is president of the Kennedy Administration for 24 and 28, #47, he is going to do it on day one, and put a statue of Edward Snowden in front of CIA headquarters, as a civics lesson 😷☕🇺🇲

Jill Stein and Cornel West have also promised on day one.

@@tombradburn3935 they do not have the numbers, the popularity, the reach, nor the policies and talking points that Bobby does, neither the first hand experience, nor the grassroots army in every single state, he has literally earned this over forty plus years time, through actions, and was not his intent nor his agenda to do so, but covid was just too much and went to far, and as far as debates Bobby has 340 electoral points, on the ballots, Trump and Biden have zero, because they will not be "confirmed", by the DNC nor the RNC until September

Free him! The truth should never be punished.

[@pamelaroebuck1079]

Free Assange! Stop persecuting those who have the courage to speak the truth.
