Julian Assange: Hunted by America's Violent Empire

[sabrina 1]

102. Yes it does matter, a lot. When elected officials name someone as a 'terrorist' and many

of them did, when current serving Elected officials call for the death of a Publisher and Editor of an International News Organization, it matters a lot. And there were several of them. Including Diane Feinstein who made the ridiculous demand that he should be tried under the Espionage Act. This government never condemned those illegal calls for the death of a News Publisher.

By contrast, when one loon in Canada did the same thing, he was forced to apologize.

The US has given no assurance to Assange's attorneys that those calls for their client's death by Elected US Officials 'mean nothing'. Canada did the right thing, the US did not, leaving people around the world to believe that he is in grave danger if the US ever gets their hands on him. And our record of dealing with people we accuse of terror, only confirms the grave danger he is in.

This could be settled by the US Government condemning the public statements of their elected officials, as they have been asked to do. But they have not.

Rep. King is a serving member of Congress, he is not a former member. Neither is Diane Feinstein, a conviction under the Espionage Act could carry the death penalty.
