    Julian exposed U.S. war crimes and for that the U.S. "justice system" came after him and made his life miserable for years, he should have never been charged. The U.S. government and the British who cooperated with the U.S. should be ashamed of themselves. Hopefully he can get reparation eventually but unfortunately 😢 the contrived guilty plea so he could escape cruel injustice might make justice difficult for Julian a true Hero and a victim of injustice. A credit to Australia and to the whole World.
