    Humanity should continue to support what Julian Assange stands for - human rights and free press. It's heartening to see Stella Assange smiling again. Thank you, Anthony Albanese! We should question the reasons behind the US military's illegal occupation of Saipan. It seems absurd for a US Federal Court to be on a Pacific island like Saipan, and the US should be removed from there. It's important to keep advocating for fair compensation for Julian Assange and his family, who have made significant contributions to benefiting humanity. I want to express my gratitude to Anthony Albanese, the Prime Minister of Australia, for his leadership and commitment to protecting Australian citizens from potential harm. As an Australian, it's crucial to reconsider our support for the US and to rethink our interactions with American tourists, given the treatment of individuals like Julian Assange. The American Empire has caused great harm. The criminals who did this to Julian Assange still walk freely and are despicable US assets who harmed millions of people and dismissed them like they didn't matter. Humanity will not rest until we have brought the US to justice for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Didn't it occur to Matthew that it is unwise to level accusations without being privy to *evidence* or *the whole story* behind an event? Matt *used his absence* from the State Department fifteen years ago as an excuse for not providing evidence.
    Matt *slammed Russia* for detaining Evan Gershkovich, but the Russians have *used the same premise* as the U.S. government in seeking Julian Assange's extradition to prosecute him. They, too, claimed that Gershkovich committed an *espionage crime* and that his imprisonment was due to that rather than his work as a reporter.🙂

    It’s a bit of a battle defending an innocent man when his life depended on him pleading guilty by the US Justice system. However, Julian always told us we would have to be as he is to defend peace and democracy so we’re up to the job with 5yrs experience as he languished in Belmarsh. We are all Assange now so behave yourself Matthew. Use a script that is true and transparent or feck off. Otherwise we may simply open our own drop box on you.

    “Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead even  expose them; for it is disgraceful even to speak of the things which are done by them in secret.

Thats what he did an that is what he was prosecuted for. He uncovered war crimes and went to jail for that. The people responsible for these war crimes were free all the time.
    I think what they want to teach us is, US war crimes are good crimes. And those who don't belive that are killed or sent to jail. USA dos it because they are convinced that they can do it and get away with it without consequences.
