The
Murdering of Julian Assange
By

June 05, 2019 "Information
Clearing House" -
Julian
Assange
is being slowly murdered by “Her Majesty’s
Prison Service” at Belmarsh prison in the
south-east of London. The prison is
notorious for holding people who have never
been charged with a crime indefinitely. It
is also called the British version of
Guantanamo, and, typically used to detain
so-called terrorists, thus called by the
British police and secret service and aped
by the British MSM and establishment.
Terrorists that become terrorists by
continuous and repeated accusations, by
media propaganda, but not necessarily by
fact.
Remember,
if a lie is repeated often enough it becomes
the truth
in the minds of the braindead listeners. Its
indoctrination of the public to demonize
somebody or a group of people, or a country,
who could become dangerous for the empire’s
vicious and criminal endeavors. That’s what
they are doing with Julian Assange. Exactly
the same principle is applied, though on a
different scale, against President Putin and
against Russia and China. And it seems to
work in
a
brainwashed-to-the-core, western society,
ran by their spineless European US-vassalic
leadership.
Yes, what is happening to Julian Assange
could happen to any journalist who reveals
the inconvenient truth about the empire and
its minions’ criminal machinations, any
journalist – or non-journalist,
whistleblower, for that matter – anyone who
dares standing up to the AngloZionist
atrocities may end up in Guantanamo or
Belmarsh which is considered a Type A prison
for adult men, meaning, a “serious” prison,
where “dangerous” detainees are held for as
long as Her Majesty’s Prison Service
considers necessary, and prisoners
treatments are held secret and include
torture.
Julian
Assange’s case goes even farther than
breaking all the rules of “democratic” free
speech.
The way he is treated is a serious
infraction on Human Rights. The US and
British governments intend to silence and
punish a champion of free speech, torturing
him for the world to see, and especially as
a deterrent for would-be whistleblowers and
other free-speech advocates.
Julian Assange has been condemned to a
‘temporary’ prison sentence of 50 weeks for
jumping bail, when he sought and was granted
refuge in 2012 in the Ecuadorian Embassy.
And why did he jump bail? Because he was
about to be extradited to neofascist Sweden,
who acting in the name of Washington,
accused him with phony rape and sexual
misconduct charges, from where he would have
most likely been extradited to the US –
where he might have faced a kangaroo court
and a fake trial with possible death
sentence, or indefinite incarceration at
Guantanamo.
That’s why he jumped bail and why he
escaped to the Ecuadorian Embassy, because
western injustice was already then played
out with false propaganda, for everyone, but
the blind and indoctrinated, to see.
Rafael
Correa,
then President of Ecuador, saw the truth
behind it all and granted Julian asylum, and
later gave him Ecuadorian citizenship –
which in 2018 was revoked by Correa’s
traitor and fascist successor, US-implant,
Lenin
Moreno,
who, as a reward, it is said, got an IMF
loan of US$ 4.2 billion to help the
government carry out its neoliberal economic
reform program, meaning undoing much of the
social programs of improving economic
equality for the Ecuadorian population,
implemented during the Correa presidency.
Well, how sick can that be? –
Unfortunately, acting pathologically or even
psychopathically in today’s world is fully
accepted. It’s the new normal. This means,
we are living in an almost-terminally ill,
corrupt and utterly brainwashed society – to
be precise, western society.
“Almost-terminally” means that there is only
dim hope of healing for the utter lack of
conscientiousness of western society. Hope
of western people’s awakening is fading, as
it is sliding ever deeper into a bottomless
abyss.
Julian Assange was first accused by
Washington
of fake charges of computer hacking and
conspiring to defraud the United States. In
fact, what this is all about is the 2010
publication by Wikileaks of the infamous
video that circulated the world a million
times, depicting the purposeful, malicious
‘collateral killing’ of harmless civilians
by the crew of a US Army helicopter – and of
other data of atrocious acts of the US
military revealed by
Chelsea
Manning,
and published by Wikileaks. Chelsea Manning
has been and is herself serving prison
sentences.
Despite the fact that this little video
has been seen around the world probably by
more than a billion people, nobody went on
the barricades – on an endless
mass-demonstration – to stop the rogue-state
and killing machine United States of America
from committing its daily and deadly crimes.
Nobody. And the killing goes on. And
Washington is doing its utmost to silence
every future revealing of their atrocities,
by silencing Julian Assange, and
intimidating any potential future
truth-revealer.
They have now 50 weeks, while he is
hidden away in a British Guantanamo-like
prison, to slowly kill him on behalf of and
as a little favor to Washington, so he
doesn’t have to be extradited and the US is
spared being exposed to the kangaroo trial
that Julian would otherwise receive. If he
dies a “natural” death in a British prison,
Trump may wash his bloody hands in
innocence, and those in Congress who want to
send a CIA squadron to murder Assange – I
kid you not they are not ashamed to openly
say so – will also be able to whitewash
their criminal and bloody minds. Nobody will
ever know what really happened behind Her
Majesty’s prison walls. – There will be
some flareups in the media – and then all
quiets down. As usual. The Wikileaks founder
will be gone – and all potential
whistleblowers and truth-seeking journalists
will be on their guard. Objective achieved.
In the meantime and to
reach that objective, Julian is most likely
being tortured, possibly physically and
psychologically. Julian Assange has
suffered “prolonged exposure to
psychological torture”, the UN’s torture
expert,
Nils Melzer,
said in a BBC interview, and urged
Britain not to extradite Assange to
Washington. According to retired USAF
lieutenant colonel
Karen
Kwiatkowski,
he may have been doped with psychotropic
drugs, like 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate, known
as BZ that produces hallucinations, mental
confusion and memory loss. This may have
been the reason, why he was unable to speak
clearly, and to participate in a Swedish
Court hearing – and had to be transferred
to the hospital wing of Her Majesty’s
Belmarsh prison. One of the few pictures
that emerged at the time of his transfer to
the hospital was one of a zombie.
Let’s just hope that I‘m totally wrong
with this scenario – and that people’s
pressure (at this point it would be a
miracle) will prey Julian loose from the
lethal fangs of the empire and its minions.
The Western world keeps looking on –
worse, they even support Her Majesty’s
Prison Service, to which Julian Assange is
subjected. They largely applauded the
brutal British arrest of Julian Assange,
when the police dragged him out of the
Ecuadorian Embassy into a van and off to
preventive custody, and hours later he was
convicted to 50 weeks on a phony charge for
jumping bail.
What can be said – is not better said
than by
Paul Craig Roberts,
“If the world stands for the US /
UK / Swedish judicial murder of an
innocent man, the world does not deserve
to exist another second.” – Amen.
