The United States vs Julian Assange | Four Corners
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2019
- In the 2016 race to the White House, presidential candidate Donald Trump took a shine to the whistleblowing site WikiLeaks, led by its Australian founder Julian Assange.
Trump revelled in the damage inflicted upon his opponent, Hillary Clinton, by a series of sensational leaks published by the site.
Now, as President, Donald Trump has performed a spectacular flip, presiding over an administration determined to imprison the publisher of the leaks.
In Part Two of its investigation into Julian Assange, Four Corners looks at Assange’s activities conducted during the nearly seven years he spent sheltering in the Ecuadorian Embassy.

Free Julian now . Put the warmongers in jail instead .
Yes! Thank you Glenn De Jong!
Glenn De Jong I agree, Put Putin in jail now
@@rhondaocallaghan7340 That's supposed to be humorous, right?
Wake Up Swat, He's playing ping pong with OJ an Epstein.
Assange and Putin are one of the most trustworthy in global politics
What Julian Assange should really get instead of a prison sentence is the nobel peace prize.
Everybody needs to send Julian Assange some love he's not feeling well. No don't know him.

When you tear out a mans tongue you are not proving him a liar, you are only telling the world that you fear what he might say....FREE JULIAN ASSANGE....
Well said
I am very concerned about Julian's health. Drumpf is vindictive, petty, mean who would do anything for attention and power protected by McConnell as the entire World witnessed. The United States has now become a Banana Republic.
No one is free nor safe anymore.
Regardless, Trump has proven himself as a traitor. From "WikiLeaks. I LOVE WikiLeaks!" to what he had done to Assange in the end...
I already knew Trump was filth, but even to his most ardent (read: brainwashed) supporters, this should serve as a major wake-up call.
Most true.
james smith ....I am a supporter of President Trump...I am well informed....and I can understand your concerns. I also want Julian A freed. I wish we could have a look at the future so we could understand what reason The DOJ is doing this. I think you will find a time in the future where you will be able to look back at this and see that there was a reason for this to be played out the way it is playing out. I follow Q and so do millions and millions of people. We are not uninformed....as the MSM tries to convince people. We are well informed of the corruption in the world.
FREE Julian Assange now! I'm American and I'm a defender of Julian Assange. I believe Julian Assange is a HERO. I protest he is still being held in any jail or prison. And I demand he be cleared of all charges and released immediately and given the best medical care and mental help to recover, if that's even possible after all he has been put through. Now hear this. Release him immediately!
When did exposing a crime become worse than the crime itself?
Brie Cole right about the time Hillary lost the election. Can’t have the truth getting out.
When the world has been taken over by a mass murderous crime syndicate, and that crime syndicate owns and controls all of the mainline "news" that most people get. That's why every authoritarian, somnambulistic twit who laps at the boots of the assortment of fascist used car sales people and demagogues who 'sell' the scripted poison to the public mind via mainstream "news" (corporate/state propaganda dispensaries, all) are the enemy of truth, justice and fair play, and will _easily_ come to see genuine truth tellers and seekers as the primary enemy.
@@bboydreaded Exactly!
bboydreaded hes not been arrested by Hillary this is Trumps work, the one that he helped get elected!
KATE: THE GLOBALISTS ARE BEHIND THIS..THE GLOBALIST NWO DEEP STATE IS BEHIND THIS...AS THEY WERE WITH THE SPY GATE INVESTIGATION THE CROWN INCLUDED. MNUCHIN, THE DEPT OF STATE, VP PENCE ARE GLOBALIST. IT IS OUT THEY GAVE 3 BILLION DOLLARS TO MIF FOR EQUADOR TO THROW ASSANGE OUT PENCE IT WAS TOLD WENT TO EQUADOR TO TALK WITH THE NEW PRES...THE CIA WAS THERE TO HELP UK OFFICERS REMOVE ASSANGE STATED BRITISH NEWS LITERALLY AS ASSANGE WAS BEING REMOVED. IT WAS A DELIBERATE SET UP.. THE PRESS THERE SHOWED CONCERN FOR HIS LIFE WHICH HAS HAPPENED TO OTHER WHISTLE BLOWERS. RECENTLY IT CAME OUT AROUND THE TIME OF MUELLERS VERBAL REPORT OR A BIT LATER BOTH SETH RICH AND HIS BROTHER TOOK INFO FROM DNC..AN INSIDE JOB AND SENT IT TO ASSANGE. FORMER NSA DIRECTOR CONFIRMED THIS WAS HOW IT WAS DONE. SO MUCH TO DECIPHER.
Amazing that an Australian publication cares more about protecting a US politician than one of it's own citizens. What a dystopian nightmare.
James Matthew so true !
And protecting journalist in their noble pursuit of transparency.
You hit the nail on the head.
This Russian hacking theme is still being used as a cover for Seth Rich's murder!!! OMG. I could not listen to the BS story after that. Terrible work for a 'professional' documentary! The emails were transfered to a USB drive, proving that the emails were leaked from within. Not hacked by Russian spies. This evidence is in the US court system as FACT!
Anonymous Person absolutely correct. The high speed transfer rate of the data proves it was internal and downloaded to a thumb drive. It was clearly a leak. JA never named his source, he couldn't, but Kim Dotcom claims to have all the proof that it was Seth Rich.
The true modern day hero. Lest we forget, he needs our help and support.
Julian Assange is Not hero, that's scandal about espionage act to leak other country's confidential information. The truth on modern day told us, he was clown
Hero is doing justice, which help others to resolve problems. If Julian Assange leaked with others country's internal affairs confidential information, that's theft.

@@rklaroche everything depends on data science to speak about truth. WikiLeaks is very important communication tool. Meanwhile There is dialogue recording in WikiLeaks.
telling the truth about govt lies or corruption should NEVER be a crime.. no matter who reports it.
Chelsea Manning , Julian Assange and Edward Snowden are extraordinary human beings and brave heros in the eyes of the world !!
@Bonnie Cull horse manure.. it's the us govt and both political parties that that work for the israeli's.. this is why they get $11.000.00 per person aid annually from the usa. but israel pays back its employees in the us govt.. ie uss liberty.. pollard, 9/11.. etc..
@maciej wrotek sex is determined by your chromozones not your delusions. if you are xxy then your choice is aided and decided with the help of doctors. It is an outrage that americans are forced to follow the delusions of individuals who ignore the reality of science. That said you should be able to dress how you like.. act like you like.. but that should end when it comes to other peoples rights.. like public bathrooms.. official documents etc... there science should prevail.
you remember the democratic plank vote? to change the goals of the dm party? the party wanted to add support for israel right in the plank.. and they took it before the assembled caucus.. and did 2 voice votes where the plank was turned down.. NAYS WON.. the vote taker..flustered went to talk to the man behind the curtain (an israli?) then came back before the assembled people and stated that the measure was passed. this is democracy>? no this is a corrupt influence of a foreign govt on the usa. this is not democracy. this is a sham republic ruled by an ogalarchy who gives concessions to the highest bidders for personal profit.
The only decent man in that bunch was Edward Snowden..You shouldnt lump him in with those other two scabs. What Edward was entirely different respectful of the rank and file of the NSA, FBI & Justice Department.Edward exposed the 1% who believe they knew what was better for America. Julian did it for his oen ego , "Bradley" Manning deserves to be imprisioned for what he did..Why?
He made his own choice to raise his hand swear an oath the both the UNITED STATES ARMY as well as to protect defend the United States of America shortly after making his own choice to enlist in the United States Army.. Key word Vounteered...
For doing that that alone he should be jailed for what he did....
The United Ststes is a system of laws, now if what was exposed leads to others being brought up on charges as a result and it is found to be legitimate fine, but Manning knew b4 hand the consiquences of his actions and should be held fully accountable period...
If that is your idea of a hero to "The world" you have incredibly low standards..
Bonnie Cull I understand why you might not like them but how did they lie to the people? Didn’t they expose truths that governments didn’t want exposed? That’s why they’re being charged
Shame on Australia, for not fighting to save Assange and free press, and for not standing up for our safety.
Australia bends for the US.
Australian OFFICIALS and media only support DRUG TRAFFICKERS caught in other countries, mostly in asia. Search: "Schapelle Corby". "Bali 9"
I don't think Schapelle Corby got much assistance from her government or the media - she was stitched up.
We did a similar thing to a female journalist on our own soil. The government order the raid and harrassment.
We are just another typical government.
It is really sad the brilliant journalist and publisher J. Assange 's life is danger under the evil's control the world. we must fight to the end.
This man needs all our support. He was the only journalist out there prepared to bring us the truth. It is a crime the way he has been treated. Much respect and a day seldom goes by that I don't think about him and wonder if he's ok. Any person who is truly good is attacked. When did it become a crime to tell the truth with evidence to back it ?
He is a hero for being a honest human being and not letting the criminal govs get away with their crimes but unfortunatly the criminals are still living a 5 star life and the innocent is suffering
Freedom for truth tellers ! Free Julian Assange!!! The World needs the Truth ✌🏻
Just free the man. He's a journalist first. He deserves freedom. It's been nearly ten years.
What the established world government wants is to deprive all of us the freedom to express ourselves freely; including the right to share what we have learned by diligent research. Why has Assange been denied the possession of his documents? Think about it.....there is only one logical answer.
He will be freed America Will Free him trust the plan Q
Human Earthling he will be freed America will free him trust the plan Q

Criminals don't like being exposed. They retaliate violently, always always
The Clintons usually leave the bodies lifeless.
Eine Regierung USA möchte natürlich nicht bloßgestellt zu werden.
Aber das hat sie selbst durch ihre Kriege längst getan. Aber viele verschließen die Augen vor Vietnam, Agent orange, viele Wälder entlaubt, und die Bevölkerung wurde DAMIT KONTAMINIERT. DIE KINDER WAREN MISSGEBILDET. ABER DAS INTERESSIERT Doch niemanden. Sie haben bei der Zündung in der Wüste Nevada's einer atomaren Bombe anschließend die eigenen Soldaten in die verseuchte Zone geschickt um am lebenden Menschen zu dokumentieren, wie die Auswirkungen sein werden. Sehr fürsorglich, oder vielleicht doch nicht?❤
In der neueren Geschichte, haben ihre eigenen Soldaten mit radioaktiv verseuchter Munition versorgt, in beiden Irak-Kriegen. Das Resultat war, dass diese Soldaten missgebildete Kinder gezeugt haben. Warum schicken sie eigentlich NIE ihre eigenen Kinder zu solchen Versuchen, wenn sie doch nicht schlimm sind? Ich bin tief traurig und bestürzt.

HIs home is behind bars!

I can't believe how gutless our Australian government is in this manner.
These are extension of the British empire and they, the leaders of the empire like to keep their REPTILIAN SIDE unseen.
The truth is their ultimate enemy!
This video production is a propaganda smear, drawing from the slimiest people they could find, ie, Matt Miller of the Center for American Progress, and Scott Shane, propagandist at the NY Times, suggesting that having his show broadcast on RT implied a connection to Putin, despite the total absence of editorial interference from Russia. Shameless smear tactics throughout.
IKR and our citizens jump on bandwagon for every drug runner arrested in South East Asian countries; Sad attention span has gotten so short. A few days after Julian's arrest they released the Notre Dame Cathedral Fire" story ; which happened to be the 48th Cathedral to burn down in France since January that year.
Gutless government. The most resource-rich country in the world, bowing, to those who need our resources.
Australian officials and media support DRUG SMUGGLERS but not it's citizen being tortured overseas. (Search: "Schapelle Corby", "Bali 9", "Corby media circus")
for the love of god dont have any type of opinion on this man untill you look at what he exposed! when you do youll see how important he is. absolute hero
The entire world owes somewhat something to this prestigious and courageous man
A more appropriate title would be "Big Brother vs Julian Assange"
Israel wants the total monopoly on espionage worldwide.
Godzilla vs. Julian Assange.
@L B Bang - on!
terrorist organization vs Assange
Assange lost any legit claim to being a whistleblower the day he put on partisan blinders! They're called "blinders" for a reason. Shame on him for endangering legit whistleblowers like Chelsea Manning and Ed Snowden! Oh, and the person who wants him jailed is.... Don the Con, just to emphasize how "loyal" your cult leader is.
FREE JULIAN ASSANGE! HE IS THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD FOR TRANSPARENCY IN POLITICS!

Exposing criminal behaviour should get Assange a medal not a prosecution in USAmerica.
When it comes to politics, If you don't want to be crucified don't ever tell the truth. To many bad people out there and if he gets out, he will be lucky to stay alive. May God watch over you Julian and keep you safe.
America owes Julian Assange his freedom, and a whole lot more.
Ditto!
Never!
If he isn't free soon, he may never be free. He is listless, nobody will insist on humane conitions, Every humanbeing is promised a trial by his peers. We all know Hillary Clinton is dirty.
Make that a jury of his peers.

If there was an Assange at Nuremberg in the 40s, they would have erected statues in his honour. How Julian is treated today shows who's in control.

The USA had just engineered a chage of government in Ecuador to one that was more compliant. So the doors flew open !

Julianne Assange deserves a parade not an indictment. Exposing the truth should never be a crime. If the media and government told the truth there would be no need for men like Assange.
Our Govt is gutless, They should be lobbying for his release and return to Australia.
So it should then be done by the Australian people if you have jelly for government.
Lobbying, more like unconditional demanding.

This is just establishment propaganda.
exactly.. compete bullshit
Total Narrative, Bahahaha,, Trump, I wish Benny Hill was scripted back when!
As a semi- hippie wanna be from the 60's and 70's, who graduated in '70, we were battling the "establishment" propaganda then. It wasn't about Dems vs. Republicans so much as fighting to be yourself and express your unique talents. I just didn't fit the mold they tried to fit me in. Secretary, receptionist, cashier, nurse? Not my cup of tea. So I worked roofing houses, exercising race horses, played keyboards in bands, did artwork and photography, and dared anybody to tell me what I couldn't do. I drag raced for four or five years and got 38 class trophies and 3 Eliminator trophies. I fought for fair wages. When I worked "guy" jobs, I insisted on guy wages, when I did the same work. We blew the "establishment" out of the water back then and things got better. But the establishment continues to take advantage of generational ignorance. And the same crap starts all over again. I saved myself a lot of trouble by actually listening to my elders. Their advice was not "old wives tales".
Julian is just an actor playing a part paid by the Jewish elite to make the US look bad

The people of Australia should be petitioning their Prime Minister, and any others to which it applies, as to WHY it is even POSSIBLE, that an AUSTRALIAN citizen could be charged with "Treason" by the government of the United States of America?!
The people of Australia are letting down one of their own people, by not being more active on behalf of the rights of Julian Assange, and the Australian Government appears to have completely abandoned him: one of their own citizens, and one who is considered by so many to be an absolute hero, and a fearless champion for human rights.
This, indeed, is one soul who should certainly not be left behind or forgotten.
Consider this.
Australia's silence is deafening!! Shameful!

And information that's embarrassing or shows criminality will always give an advantage to one side. In this case it happened to be the republicans over the democrats because that's who it exposed. If reporters could never publish information that gave an advantage to one side then there could never be any reporting.
I have no doubt at all that if in his early days people had given him information that was embarrassing to the republicans or russia that he would have published that too.
This is such a biased farce the idea that he was working for Russia and this documentary spent way too much time on that angle.

The Australian government couldn't bring a wet cat in from the rain. It's leader is Scott Morrison who failed with Tourism Australia, holidayed in Hawaii while bushfires back home went into mega extreme. Assange would be the last person on Morrison's mind.

You conveniently left out the story of Seth Rich.
I wish there was an RT Australia !
what is an RT?
The Ausi's need one as they soak up american propaganda like a lot of this stuff in this abc vid like a sponge
doctorwatson1000 be careful What you Wish for! it's a Kremlin controlled propaganda Channel. very manipulative and cynical
hahaha ludmila please do some research b4 repeating more government propaganda. RT America although a state russian tv station decimates the stong and daily propaganda from every major mainstream news channel in the US with truthful facts on a daily basis. The russian state only has to employ journalists who tell the truth on domestic issues on rt US because the truth is so daming to the powers that be and does exactly what russia would like it to do.
@@stevenrussell5085 Yes, exactly
The United States decimates an entire country and not a word said. I bleed Red - White & Blue I honor all our service members I honor all that have fallen & pd the ultimate price. Our founders believed that we "must hold our leaders feet to the fire" All the Founders of our great nation know all to well that the Ed Snowdens, Chelsea Mannings & Julian Assange's of this world are the last check and balance we have.
David Nilson How is a nation "great" that decimates an entire country? US soldiers in today's military are "order followers' of a corrupt govt and don't provide a "service" to anyone that beneficial. If I were Ed, Julian or any other whistleblower right now, I'd be sickened at the fact that the American people have done nothing with the information they've been provided. Corruption is still in power.
Snowden is CIA plant
would be good to protect them instead of sitting and watching them sink into the quicksand..... these people are our last hope of ascertaining any truth in this world
But David, Trump was voted out of office. Doesn't that seem to you like control over politics exercised by ordinary people? Snowden and Manning both violated their security agreements. They should be in prison. Please explain why Assange repeatedly targets the US while neglecting to reveal secrets of murderous tyrannies like Russia, Red China, North Korea, Syria, and Iran. Do you actually think the US is a bigger threat to human freedom than those regimes? Quite to the contrary, the US is the biggest check against the ambitions of these same awful tyrannies.
@@johnmaxwell1750 you are so deluded…America is the worst of the lot!
If there wasn't ugly truth to reveal, there wouldn't be ugly truth revealed.
Release this great man!!! Allow him to get back to doing his great work of protecting the people!!!
We need him to be our eyes and ears!!! Let him go!!!!
I love the comments! Most of them are for Assange!! So amazing to see so many people who are awake and who care about the truth and justice and Assange, of course. Free Assange!!
Amazing to see so many people who are awake? Take it from someone who's been a truther for quite some time - Assange /Wikileaks are a US /Israeli intelligence operation.
The people who are awake are the people who understand that and not those who believe that Assange /Wikileaks are doing some sort of heroic work.
Jesus! The guy WORKS FOR both the United States and Israel!! Besides that, he pushes the official story of 9/11.
Please do some serious research before you not only fall for the Assange /Wikileaks psyop, but even call others who have fallen for it "awake."
Breaks my heart....this is so painful, sniff.
God bless Julian Assange🌭🍔🦅🇺🇸
He just exposed corruption but he js the bad guy????what a world we live in !!!
I think Julian Assange should be given a metal for what he's done
U mean a medal? Lol dummy
M Goldey You know how these computers are they don't dictate worth a damn
M Goldey and why do I have to be a dummy?
russellchrom because you don’t know the difference between metal and medal
Julian Assange IS A MULTI-AWARD JOURNALIST as well as Wikileaks a multi-award publisher. Much more than the talking heads we see on tele or those writers in the national newspapers.
Love ya Julian. You helped save the World. May God keep you well and soon be set free. Amen.
Julian Assange is a true and broadly recognised world-renown journalist. Humanity needs such integral journalists to inform the public on truth. In my honest view, any authority trying to prosecute Julian Assange for openly reporting on truth and exposing crimes including the president of the united states Donald Trump or the Deep state are violating human justice and must be exposed for this crime and be brought accountable and to justice.
When one sees ears and report from any sides “THANK YOU”
When one sees ears and report only to please one side “NO THANKS” just ask V.P.
Instead of pointing the finger at Russia, Seth or anyone else, point the finger at Hilary Clinton. What an incompetent thing to do - have your personal e-mail and not a government-protected e-mail. If anyone else had committed such an incompetent act, they would be in prison.
God bless and protect Julian Assange!
Jeanie Anderson I get your flow, but not sure if calling god will be enough?
It doesn't matter 'if' someone or a country is controlling him. It doesn't change the crimes.
Free Assange!!!
ABC as you often do, you report some parts of the story and intentionally not report other important parts of the story, which steers public opinion away from key aspects of the actual truth. Just one example of many is that while you mentioned that Julian Assange was sentenced to 50 weeks imprisonment for skipping bail, you forgot to mention that 50 weeks was the near maximum sentence (of 52 weeks) for skipping Police bail and for which the charges had been dropped , and you forgot to mention that for such a minor offence, not only was he given a disproportionate sentence but also put in a maximum security prison Belmarsh, which is normally for the most dangerous criminals, in solitary confinement for 23 hours per day. You also forgot to mention the very limited access to his lawyers in order to defend himself etc. Isn't that gross abuse of the UK legal system worth a mention to highlight the vindictiveness of the US and UK government's persecution of Julian Assange because be exposed some inconvenient truths eg. war crimes in Iraq etc, which were obviously in the public interest. ABC is it not in the public interest to highlight this horrible injustice by us "the good guys" ? Sometimes you have a bad habit of bypassing some major points !
Typical of the Lame Stream Media and the left, cherry pick the worst, spin it to be even worse and push real truth and the whole truth aside.
Bravo. Thats exactly their m.o.
AND omits the murders and suspicious deaths of the key Wikileaks staff!
This man is a real hero. He deserves a medal.
It's unbelievable that this fine investagative journalist is in prison and an indictment to our society.We live in an Orwellian world.
Julian Assange founder of WikiLeaks should be pardoned by an act of Congress.
Unfortunately both sides of the aisle see him as the enemy and someone who embarrassed the then American government and now the Trump administration. I doubt either side will exonerate him.
After 7 year ABC remember Ansaje,such a shame on you and for all of us Australians for letting down one of ou own ,., u shuld be ashamed, .,.ABC.!
FREE ASSANGE BRING HIM HOME FULL STOP!!!
We will be hearing from Assange soon again----why are Democrats so nervous about this? Let the man speak---he is only 100% correct in his reporting.
Its the republicans that want him dead!!!
Martyr for freedom! Free Assange
TELLING THE TRUTH IS THE WEAPON AGAINST DISHONESTY. FREE ASSANGE. HE IS AN ANGEL SENT BY HEAVEN. SEE THE SUBSEQUENT BLESSINGS BROUGHT TO THE USA BY Mr. T.
