No Extradition, No Justice: Assange Remains Behind Bars

Published: Jan. 6, 2021, 3:47 p.m.

On COI #54, Kyle discusses Julian Assange being denied bail after a judge ruled against his extradition to the US. The denial of bail is further proof the prosecution of Assange has nothing to do with justice. The goal of the US, UK, and Sweden is to keep Assange behind bars to punish him for exposing war crimes. 

While governments focus on keeping the people who expose their crimes behind bars, criminals acting on behalf of the state continue to go free. The Kenosha officer who paralyzed James Blake will not face charges. Victoria Nuland, who empowered neo-Nazi factions in Ukraine by orchestrating a coup in 2014, will be nominated for a high-level State Department position. Brett McGurk, who resigned to prevent Trump from ending an illegal war, will be given an advisor position in Biden's NSC.
