  1. yes, free Assange also do not forget, he was originally charged for a crime he did not do, as was I, and those trumped up charges were to get him silenced,me too, and his were dropped as false, i live this living hell because i said NO! to my privacy and life being exploited and my intellectual property being plagiarized! free Roberta May Hope Caster and pay me my royalties or there will be no intellectual property for anyone, and free JULIAN! but it started when you allowed it to happen to me, free Hope free Julian!

  2. Thank you Mr Hedges for speaking out on behalf of Julian, listening to you gives me hope for a better future for all ☮

  3. Sins and wrong doings don't disappear when you pass, they burden the infinite soul for ever….life is too short to burden your own spirit.

  4. They used the same story of rape and sexual battery against the president of the international monetary fund in 2011. The US and a few of other western countries didn't like his monetary policy. He was arrested at Kennedy air port, put in Rikers Island and held there. As soon as he resigned from the IMF all charges were dropped because the prosecutors office suddenly decided there were " substantial credibility issues" with the accuser, who, just like Assanges accuser, was a hotel maid.

  5. And so the CIA should get revenge! Look at what this son of a bitch has done to America and to western democracy! I wish him a speedy extradition and I hope he burns in hell!

  6. Rev 19:1  And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: 
    Rev 19:2  For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.

  7. Julian Assange published information in the public interest . The Pentagon Papers case in the US Supreme Court established the right to publish if it is in the public interest . The public has a right to know about the war crimes our governments committed in our names . Julian Assange is innocent .

  8. "These predators intend to keep us in bondage, victims of a corporate neo feudalism, they have perfected their instruments of Orwellian control"

  9. I salute this speech, even though English is not my native language and the content is a bit difficult for me, but I found the transcript on TRNN's website, thank you TRNN. It also reminds me of the war monger Nancy Pelosi who came to my country a few months ago and spouted off about human rights and liberty, she really made me sick.
