This was a key conclusion: Archived Message Posted by CJ on June 18, 2019, 3:00 am, in reply to "Good Rolling Stone piece on Assange" "Add to this the crazy fact that the Assange indictment targets a foreigner whose “crimes” were committed on foreign soil, and the British government now bears a very heavy responsibility. If it turns Assange over to the United States and he is successfully prosecuted, we’ll now reserve the right to snatch up anyone, anywhere on the planet, who dares to even try to learn about our secret activities. Think of all the ways that precedent could be misused. Britain is in a box. On the one hand, thanks to Brexit, it’s isolated itself and needs the United States more than ever. On the other hand, it needs to grow some stones and stand up to America for once, if it doesn’t want to see the CIA as the World’s Editor-in-Chief for a generation. This case is bigger than Assange now, and let’s hope British leaders realize it." cheers Message Thread: Good Rolling Stone piece on Assange - Poster123 June 17, 2019, 9:32 pm This was a key conclusion: - CJ June 18, 2019, 3:00 am   Searching
