The Meaning of Assange’s Persecution – Consortiumnews
The leaked reports exposed 20,000 deaths, including thousands of
children, according to Assange. Many of them contain evidence of war
crimes. [Among the leaked material was
the “Collateral Murder” video, a gruesome view from the gun-barrel of a
U.S. helicopter gunship as it mowed down a group of Iraqi men, including
two Reuters journalists, as they walked on a Baghdad street – and then
killing a man who stopped to help the wounded and also wounding two
children in his van.]
