John
Pilger on Assange: 'His crime has been to make sense of dark times.
WikiLeaks has an impeccable record of accuracy and authenticity no
newspaper, TV channel, radio station ... can equal. Indeed, it shames them. That explains why he is being punished. ...
'The persecution of Julian Assange is the conquest of us all: of our
independence, our self respect, our intellect, our compassion, our
politics, our culture. So stop scrolling. Organise. Make a noise. If
Julian can stand up to Big Brother, so can you: so can all of us.'
