2016-10-21 ASSANGE update - live and well, high spirits..
Sometimes
I quite enjoy my life. If you can’t annoy the arrogant bastards who run
the world for the 1%, what point is there in living?
UPDATE
I left Julian afte
r
midnight. He is fit, well, sharp and in good spirits. WikiLeaks never
reveals or comments upon its sources, but as I published before a
fortnight ago, I can tell you with 100% certainty that it is not any
Russian state actor or proxy that gave the Democratic National Committee
and Podesta material to WikiLeaks. The claim is nonsense. Journalists
are also publishing that these were obtained by “hacking” with no
evidence that this was the method used to obtain them.
The control of the Democratic party machinery deliberately to unfairly
ensure Clinton’s victory over Bernie Sanders is a matter of great public
interest. The attempt by the establishment from Obama down to divert
attention from this by a completely spurious claim against Russia,
repeated without investigation by a servile media, is a disgrace.
The over-close relationship between the probable future President and
Wall Street is also very important. WikiLeaks has done a great public
service by making this plain.
The attempts by the mainstream
media to portray WikiLeaks as supporters of Trump and Putin because they
publish some of Clinton’s darker secrets is completely illogical and
untrue in fact. The idea we must pretend Clinton is a saint is emetic.
But the key point is that WikiLeaks is a publisher. It is a vehicle for
publishing leaks, and is much more of a vehicle for whistleblowers than
for hackers. It does not originate the material. I have often seen
comments such as “Why has WikiLeaks not published material on
Israel/Putin/Trump?” The answer is that they have not been given any.
They publish good, verifiable material that they are given by
whistleblowers. They are not protecting Israel, Putin, or Trump. Nobody
has given them viable material.
Ecuador is keen to make plain
that they are not interfering in the US election and wish to make plain
material on the Presidential candidates is not being published from
their facilities. Julian has no problem with the statement put out by
Ecuador yesterday. It is worth noting that WikiLeaks is established in
several countries and nothing has ever been published by WikiLeaks from
any facility situated in the Ecuadorean Embassy

Go into the Foreign Office and read ten Top Secret documents about UK
collaboration with torture to refresh my memory. Hand back documents and
my notes…
:) Back from camping near the river. Staying connected with alternative realities is an important part of tuning in.
