Julian Assange's brother speaks out ahead of expected extradition | LBC

[@debradonoghue3391]

Been following Julian what seems forever, wearing my free Julian Assange t shirt, I'm heartbroken, what a corrupt world we live in. We huff and puff at other countries and their human rights with our heads held high. The powers above should be ashamed. We as a country are spineless, our MPs are a joke

[@hmq9052]

Assange worked with Putin to help put Trump in the WH. He must be punished.

[@MrTampaB]

You are naive of the precedent this would set for countries like China to hack info, release it to a journalist, then feign shock and use it as a propaganda ploy as corruption in the west. Don’t be ignorant.

Killing because you think somebody is a combatant is not a legal justification in war. That has been tested many times in court.
