What's the matter with the Ozzies that they even betray their own journalists, let alone any others?
Many countries are much more concerned than them about this attack on the press.
10 November 2020 ... The motion was the first to be passed in either house of the federal parliament that is in any way supportive of Assange, since the British police illegally arrested him in April 2019. It is one of only a handful of times the WikiLeaks founder has been mentioned in parliament following last month’s conclusion of the final British show trial hearings for his extradition on unprecedented US espionage charges, on which he could be jailed for life.
The impetus for the motion was undoubtedly concern over popular hostility toward the complicity of the parliamentary establishment in the railroading of an Australian journalist and publisher.
Over 150 legal experts and lawyers’ associations around the world condemned the British court proceedings as a legal travesty. A group of 161 prominent international political figures, including 13 former national presidents, similarly denounced the hearings as a sham and demanded Assange’s immediate freedom.
Oh, wait a moment, they have a potentially huge scandal over the conduct of their own troops in Afghanistan. One can understand why they hate whistle-blowers and seek to cover up war-crimes.
