Melinda Taylor, a lawyer specialising in human rights and international criminal law who represents Assange, has denounced his confinement in the embassy.

I think it is shocking that Assange has been detained arbitrarily for approximately eight years for publishing evidence of war crimes and human rights violations. The UK could end this situation today, by providing assurances that Assange will not be extradited to the United States.”

War crimes..? Human rights violations...? Nothing to see here...move along.

Asange chose to seek refuge in the Ecuador embassy (and how much money has he cost Ecuadorian taxpayers?This is not a rich country) rather than submit to a legitimate legal authority.No sympathy here.Some people outlive their usefulness.

Most people, I imagine, would prefer to NOT KNOW all the horrible things states do...ignorance is bliss, I suppose...

I am glad that both Julian and Edward are “there” for those who do care and believe in transparency...so very much human potential and effort is wasted in the spy versus spy game....for what...?

For keeping people safe, from the other guy keeping people safe, from the other guy keeping people safe...o but remember “suspicion breeds confidence”...
