that rises up against wrongdoers and the powerful and self interested to reveal the truth.
A hero that stood stalwart under pressure in the defence of good old Aussie values such as freedom of speech and thought, fairness and justice for all.
In Australia, you don't dob too the authorities, you dob on the authorities.
Whistle blowing is acceptable in Australia because most australians since Eureka Stockade have harboured a healthy mistrust of authority, and rightly so.
Without Julian Assange and his Wikileaks, we would have never known how the U.S. really thinks or acts when attempting to enforce it's will upon the rest of us. If China was conducting similar activities throughout the world we would be concerned.
Australian citizenship should mean something, and for Assange it appears to mean nothing at all if the Australian Govt fails to stand by his side in the face of any trumped up charge from Sweden designed to discredit. Officially he is charged with an offence known as "Sex by Surprise".
It becomes obvious that invoking such draconian laws as anti terror against Assange would render him an institution , so therefore the plan is, to reduce his influence by having him categorised as a common pervert. Going beyond that the Canadian President has advocated his assassination, Wikileaks itself is under constant cyber attack.
All the things you would attribute to the guys wearing the black hats.
This is Australian citizen is under attack for making accessible the actual truth
through the revealing documents supplied by whistle blowers worldwide.
(And bless their brave souls for having the courage to do it).
There is no dispute about the bona-fides of the documents.
Assange says the next round of revelations will be in the corporate sector.
Whilst Assange himself never passes judgement on content, I think this where the dirtiest linen/truths of all will be revealed.
Through knowing truth we empower ourselves. Go Julian!.
