WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange spoke publicly on Tuesday for the first time since he was released in June from London’s Belmarsh prison. Assange addressed the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in France about his 14-year legal saga after publishing evidence of U.S. war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Assange was freed after pleading guilty to a U.S. charge of obtaining and disclosing national security material. “I eventually chose freedom over unrealizable justice after being detained for years and facing a 175-year sentence with no effective remedy,” Assange said. “I am not free today because the system worked. I am free today, after years of incarceration, because I pled guilty to journalism.”
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Julian Assange was punished for revealing the rot at the core of our alleged democracy and how the establishment seeks to punish anyone who challenges elite interests.
