The world has no illusions regarding a nation that openly TORTURES, illegally INVADES other nations, PLUNDERS resources, executes/MURDERS civilians (and now US nationals) and illegally INCARCERATE others -- the list goes on, none of it good!
Sydney Supporters of WikiLeaks
Need we ask what these behaviours characterise, a mass murdering, terrorist, criminal nation that would attack anyone that reveals the ugly TRUE NATURE of the 'beast' for the world to see? Indeed, the accuracy of the compromising information was/is confirmed by the fact that it was sourced from the 'beast's' own secret archives.
In Denial characteristic of homicidal sociopaths, the USA would openly attack and accuse their accusers. Oblivious to the fact that the world is keenly aware of U.S. HYPOCRISY and double standards it seems the only people convinced by the latest tactic to avoid the Courts and responsibility are rustic, uninformed Americans. Nevertheless, the USA presses on regardless, compromising itself to a far greater extent than any perceived enemy would hope to achieve. I mean, give the world a break with the trumped-up sex charges levelled against Julian Assange of WikiLeaks. A man that serves the public interest by publishing the TRUTH.
The global community needs to be informed of every terrorist group or Nation. Julian Assange has simply published official data that has been withheld from the public. Details of U.S. war and other crimes have been described by official observers and/or the culpable themselves. Assange also promises to release compromising data on a major U.S. Bank, corporate rogues and other Wall St criminals working against the best interests of humanity and the planet.
Today’s newswire carries a story of plans by criminal American interests to charge Julian Assange under a 1917 espionage act; such charges would be ‘sealed envelope’ charges, not to be disclosed publicly – HOW BLOODY CONVENIENT!
So, in secret proceedings, the world's leading terrorist State would attempt to crucify a man who has done nothing more than reveal the LIES and CRIMINALITY of the nation that now pursues, persecutes and would silence him forever – that’s ‘JUSTICE’ for you/all!
In the absence of action and SUPPORT from traditional institutions of religion and the unions, the prerogative has fallen on the PEOPLE DIRECTLY to challenge the criminals that have hijacked our democracies and would crucify the men and women that would restore LAW, honour, credibility and democracy to our societies.
Well,
WE WOULDN’T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY! The onus is ours once AGAIN, history in the making; would we restore Justice, Law, Order and Representative Democracy in our respective nations or resign ourselves to slavery, as the criminal cabals desperately wish?
The very first step is to DEMAND the arrest of the REAL WAR and ECONOMIC CRIMINALS that WikiLeaks has helped to expose. In a SHOW of unstoppable, peaceful force march on your respective Capitals in support of YOURSELF, Julian Assange and all those that have lost their lives in the fight against criminal elites that would make a mockery of TRUTH, FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY -- everything we hold dear in our lives.
Indeed, what we witness and would create today will be considered a historic people’s EVOLUTION or a tragic failure by future generations.
The brazen criminals responsible for all the destruction, murder and chaos in the world today ARE KNOWN TO US – IT IS TIME TO ACT and RESTORE THE LIBERTIES AND FREEDOMS PREVIOUS GENERATIONS FOUGHT SO HARD TO ESTABLISH. WE owe it to them, ourselves and future generations to remove the blight that has infected our societies and governments – if a clean sweep of high office is required, then so be it!
Support TRUTH and prevent the crucifixion of Julian Assange at the hands of criminals in high office.
Peace and Justice for ALL.

U.S. set to charge founder of Wikileaks with espionage
by Jeremy Pelofsky
A LAWYER for Wikileaks founder Julian Assange last night said prosecutors in the United States were preparing to indict her client for espionage.
The US justice department has been looking into a range of criminal charges, including violations of the 1917 espionage act, that could be filed in the WikiLeaks case involving the release of hundreds of confidential and classified US diplomatic cables.
A justice department spokeswoman declined to comment on lawyer Jennifer Robinson's prediction of an indictment.
However, US attorney general Eric Holder earlier this week said prosecutors were looking beyond the espionage law for possible charges.
Ms Robinson said Assange's legal team believed he was protected by the free speech right in the US constitution's first amendment as the publisher of Wikileaks.
Assange has been detained in a London jail after being arrested in connection with an unrelated investigation by Swedish authorities into alleged sex crimes in that country.
Some legal experts have said it would be difficult for President Barack Obama's administration to prosecute Wikileaks or Assange, who is an Australian citizen, for espionage. Other sections of US law make it easier to prosecute people for unauthorised disclosure of certain classified information.
In a separate move, Mr Holder last night denied the US government had pressured companies to stop working with Wikileaks site, which has released sensitive US diplomatic and military documents.
"We have not pressured anybody to do anything," Mr Holder said when asked if the government had tried to influence companies, including Amazon.com, which stopped hosting the Wikileaks site.
However, in a sign that online activism over Wikileaks was increasing, supporters of the site were last night reported to have downloaded increasing amounts of the software used to attack companies seen as hostile - a development that could challenge online retail giants such as PayPal and Amazon.com during the crucial Christmas shopping season.
US data security company Imperva said downloads of the attack programme used to bombard websites with bogus requests for data had jumped to more than 40,000, with thousands more reported overnight. "It's definitely increasing," Imperva researcher Tal Be'ery said.
Activists, who gather under the name Anonymous, have had mixed results so far. Attacks directed at of Visa and MasterCard succeeded in making their main web pages inaccessible, in MasterCard's case for several hours.
However, other planned attacks, on Moneybookers.com or Amazon.com, have either fizzled or been called off.
The sites have severed their links to Wikileaks, citing suspected "terms of use" violations.
Meanwhile, in Australia, Wikileaks supporters yesterday held rallies in the cities of Brisbane and Sydney, where more than 500 people gathered outside Town Hall, some waving signs that read, "Hands off Wikileaks, We deserve the truth," and "Don't shoot the messenger".
Among the most recent WikiLeaks revelations was a claim that drug maker Pfizer hired investigators to dig up dirt on Nigeria's former attorney general in a bid to stop action over a 1996 drug study.
The drugs firm denied the claim.
It was also revealed that former US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice considered taking military action against an arms-laden Ukrainian ship after it was hijacked by Somali pirates two years ago.
