Julian Assange released from Jail

[Mr X]

Congratulations to Assange and his family. He had a long struggle and lived like a prisoner for the last 14 years. I am surprised but happy to see him being set free soon

 

[Asfandyar Bhittani]

Should relocate to a Hong Kong if he doesn't want to get arrested for a bogus charge and commit "suicide" in prison.

Agree.

I fear for him in the long run. His card is marked and the US wont forget or forgive the way he exposed them. He will be forever looking over his shoulder......

There is much going on behind the scenes here. He will be fine after this plea deal. (Amal Clooney is one of his lawyers, and she is also the brains behind the strategy to take Israel to the ICC.)

How do you know he will be fine? How can you be confident? The number of international institutions he has pissed off and rubbed. IMO he will be marked.

If he were truly marked, he would have been taken care of already. But you have the right to your own opinion of course, and I respect that right, always.

If he was assassinated earlier the entire world would have blamed the US. It would have been Jamal Khashogi 2.0.

But now after the peace deal, go with the Wagner route

No need for anything more after the plea deal. He has served enough time incarcerated that shows the consequences of his actions to serve as a warning to others, which was the whole point. Actions have consequences.

He will travel to Saipan to enter a guilty plea in a US Federal Court, and the process will go on from there.

 

[Nan Yang]

No thanks to the Australian government.

Sir, There are no holy cows for governments. They will make you an ally if your interests align with theirs, otherwise, they will treat you as an enemy if it serves the nation's best interests. We have seen an example of how Putin handled the Wagner group rebellion. He promised peace and the guarantees were sought by the neighbouring nation but despite this he eliminated their leader in the first opportunity.

Yesterday, I was watching a documentary about the Cuban Missile Crisis and learned that America had planned to bomb its own cities and blame it on Cuba to justify an invasion and occupation of Cuba. They couldn’t execute it because of the Soviet Union and after learning that Cuba posses the nuclear missiles. There's the version of the truth we hear in the news, and then there's the truth known only to the powerful elite, which is often very unfair, inhuman, and brutal.

Julian Assange is now deemed worthless, but I wouldn't be surprised if, in two years, he suddenly dies of a heart attack with the true cause remaining unknown.

Fair enough, we can wait and see what happens to him. My guess is that he will not face any more punishment or retaliation from the US government. As I said before, the real message here is deterrence of any future instances of such leaks resulting in a guilty plea.

He's basically an "accident" waiting to happen now.

It is so awesome you can see the future so clearly.

Also child pornography found on his personal hard drives to seal the deal…
