By Peter Bowden, published 24/12/2021

What did Julian Assange do that such powerful countries want him condemned ? For he is not guilty of any crime. Guilty only of exposing wrongdoings.

I think it would be common behaviour for innocent people to kick and scream while being dragged anywhere.

"I think it would be common behaviour for innocent people to kick and scream while being dragged anywhere."

Or to hide in an embassy for seven years. Or to accuse your victims of being part of an international conspiracy and stand by while your fans attack them, even threatening to kill them. Or constantly complain of health concerns due to the persecution you are being subjected to. Or spend millions in donations of your gullible fans on legal support. Or hack into computers of ex-colleagues to remove records of conversations with them.

You can read the evidence that the US presented at his extradition hearing:

At the above hearing Jules avoided extradition because of his health concerns. Not so lucky in December, maybe because he has been observed in Broadmarsh since January. At both hearings the judges agreed that Jules had a number of serious criminal charges to answer for.

In contrast to Jules, George faced a very weak case and could easily have avoided extradition had he chosen to. But for George, extradition wasn't necessary, because unlike Jules, George has integrity, courage, and a belief in his innocence.
