Well, what about this one??

Just forget all the denigrating stories that have been written about him - this is one of the worst "leaker" issues for the 2020's. At least Daniel Ellsberg didn't cop this.

Julian Assange should be dangling from a rope till the corpse rots off it. Mentioning that worthless piece of shit at the same time Ellsberg is mentioned is the purest of intellectual dimness (and that's giving it as much credit as possible) Ellsberg did it because he loved his country and thought they needed to know what had been done in their name. Assange did it because he's a troll.

Thank you TC so I did not have to respond.

I think that your comments only underscore how incredibly effective the 10+ years of demonization of Assange has been. Sadly, the result for him is a bit like the refrain from the song about Ned Kelly "Poor old Ned, you're better off dead" - maybe you should inform yourselves about the history of "Get Assange"

it's long and horrible, and casts some serious light over the "secret state" and its machinations (and the willingness of the media - think the Guardian - to go along with it).
