I know there are some who think Assange is a stooge of the CIA/NSA/MI5-6....et al. I don't. They have all tried to use him, as they always do to spin a story they don't like. I personally think Julian is pretty much 'what you see, is what you get'....and will go down in her/his-tory as a major figure to challenge AUTHORITY and OLIGARCHY. He is not a very dynamic speaker; however, his speech today spoke truth to power and said all the right things. I feel it was genuine and spoken from the heart. I think he'll eventually find a way out of London to Quito...but I fear assassination disguised as an accident or something else......If only every person had done as much as JA, we would not be in this situation we are...... He's no 'god' to worship, and has faults as all humans do, but he has passed, IMHO, the acid test [both kinds of acid!]. One need only look at his adversaries to know which side of 'things' he is on.......
