The only "good news" is that he is not being extradited today.

Or let's put it that way: it's not the worst news that could have happened today regarding ...

Nothing to celebrate though, as new grounds for appeal, and new evidence were rejected by the court...

Asking for a friend:

Do you know how to design card games? are there any resources like for instance:

  • howto design rules/gameplay?
  • generic gameplays that can be adapted to your needs?

Any idea on how/where to print card sets in small/medium volumes?

⛓️ During 7+ years confined in this minuscule apartment, without a balcony, without seeing a tree or getting outside once, his lawyers asked repeatedly to the Swedish prosecutor to either 1/ come to the embassy to conduct interrogation 2/ use a video link as frequently done by Sweden at that time. No answer. This period in the embassy was considered by UN Rapporteur on arbitrary detention as.. detention. And felt like prison. J's health without access to doctors/hospitals degraded.

🗽 So in case you're not convinced yet: Assange/WikiLeaks case is the most important legal case of our times, as it impacts: press freedom; freedom to publish; war crimes; cyber-security; the resilience of our collective infrastructures online; online censorship; geopolitics; lies and crimes in governments; instrumentalisation of police and justice; the CIA; the relationship of we (the people) facing arbitrary authoritarian powers of the state; character assassination; [list too long]

⁉️ If you think you "hate the guy" or just "dislike him" or that you are not concerned by his legal case because.. you know.. his "personality", please ask yourself: why? How do you know about his personality? What are your sources? Please put all this in the balance and take a look at the big picture of the massive (almost 15y!) campaign of manipulation/influence/slander/character assassination, and a legal case that goes way beyond him. If a precedent is made here, you will suffer too.

📸 I took these photos in 2011, while Julian was in the same High Court in London where the hearing is happening today; (photos previously unreleased, now under (CC) BySa or LAL 1.3)

Today's hearing is about requesting a permission (!) to appeal (!) his extradition to the US (!) where he faces certain death in prison for his work as a journalist and publisher.

Then, he was appealing against his first extradition request (!) to Sweden...

(a thread) 1/14

An analog photo taken in 2011 of Julian Assange whispering to the hear of Kristinn Hrafnsson. The background is the gothic, cathedral-esque High Court of Justice in London. The colour are yellow/red denoting an antique lighting. The edge of the frame is burnt, indicating a recently loaded film, and blur on Assange's hand and parts of his face evokes a rather dynamic conversation. The photo is CC BySa (or LAL 1.3) J. Zimmermann

👩‍⚖️ For 10y Sweden kept the "investigation" ongoing (think of "the victims"!) without agreeing to interview him. When case was finally closed, his name was durably muddied. The truth is: there was NO Swedish case... or rather the Swedish case has been the case of Sweden's police and judicial authority manipulating the truth to help the US harass a journalist, while instrumentalising these women for 10y. (background of 2nd woman A. Ardin is interesting but not the topic here.)

🦅 After 7+ years in the Ecuadorian embassy, a regime change there, the mega-release of Vault7 that proved how incompetent, unaccountable and crazy the CIA was with its capacity to enter about any device without leaving traces, and a few days after Ecuador got a 4B$ loan from the IMF, the UK police got invited into the embassy to drag him out and arrest him (2019). Accused of "skipping bail" (usually a 20ish weeks of prison) he spent 4+years in the worst max-security prison in UK.

😷 Of course his health is degrading. Mentally and physically. Many would have been dead already in such conditions. That is: a few weeks in jail + 2 years of house arrest + 7 years of "detention" (according to UN) in embassy + 4 years in max-security prison.. But his incredible resilience, his strong network of support, and the faint hope that there would be legal or political means to get him out kept him alive so far...

@kravietz well now is a good time to question them and re-consider...

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@kravietz by "them" i meant reconsider your reservations in the light of all this... but am not sure you are willing to do that effort...

so what are your reservations, from these screenshots?

  • he may (?) have been wrong about something sometimes?
  • he is supported by people you don't like?

The thing is: you can find thousands of other articles defending him and photos of crowds in his defense, probably including many in opposition to those you just showed.

So, why so partial?

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@kravietz That's precisely the point here.

However the "rank" of Sweden, it used its "impeccable" judicial system to twist the rules, its 'perfect" police did fraudulently edit records and leak documents to the press (they can be the only possible source).

All this is not a "narrative" but facts, as collected by a UN special rapporteur in his book. Please take a read instead of spreading uninformed slander.

"lax extradition law" = Sweden extradites to the US automatically, administratively.

@ChemicalEyeGuy

I usually ignore these types of comments, but today is special...

So, this opinion is mis-informed in more than one way:

1/ The revelations about corruption in the DNC (Democractic Party) did NOT make Trump elected. it's rather a) the poor campaign of Clinton b) a broken electoral system where she could win popular vote but not be elected c) the very content of these leaks: the entire DNC conspired to sink B. Sanders (who was the most popular) and to boost Trump!

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@ChemicalEyeGuy

In the emails published, you can clearly read that the DNC helped Trump win the primary of the Republican party, arguing "he is the only one we can beat". It's a major strategic mistake that made them lose. Blaming for that is of historical bad faith.

2/ Ccontent of the DNCLeaks was absolutely newsworthy and authentic. They were published by the NYTimes and the Wash.Post. Are these also responsible for getting Trump elected? Should one shut up about corruption?

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@ChemicalEyeGuy

3/ After claiming everywhere that he was "a rapist" (while as demonstrated 10y later by hard facts by a UN Special rapporteur, the entire case was fabricated, twisted and instrumentalized) now people claim he is "a Russian spy", "worked with Putin".

There is not a single piece of evidence to back this claim. Even the Muller Report (have you read it? i did) is inconclusive on the issue.

Not a single fact.

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@ChemicalEyeGuy

All there is is one private security company claiming that the source may have been within the Russian intelligence agency. Maybe. Why not.

but: a) whoever the source is, if the documents are authentified, unaltered and newsworthy, and if their revelation is of general interest (and the DNCLeaks def. were!) then anyone who gets them should publish them

b) Assange said repeatedly he had no way of knowing who a source was. WikiLeaks was actually built that way from day0.

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@ChemicalEyeGuy

So fine: you decide to believe rumours ("he worked with Putin") and shady sources within the intelligence crowd who he exposed and want him dead, rather than believe a journalist/publisher who took immense personal risk, collected 30+ international journalism awards and faces death in prison.

That shows at best where your heart is.

So, do you think should die? Spend his life in US prison? How about the other leaks, about war crimes in Iraq, Afg., corruption, etc.?

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@kravietz @ChemicalEyeGuy I don't know what is or is not Russian disinformation.

All i know is:

  • he may have been wrong about things. (i don't really care, that's not the object of the US indictment. he's in for cables and war logs)

  • All people have been wrong about things.

  • All news organisations sometimes propagate misinformation.

  • you have no evidence to back your claims.

Are you applying same standards to all journalists, or just the ones harassed 15y by the US and about to die?

jz,
@jz@mamot.fr avatar

@kravietz @ChemicalEyeGuy

OK so that's your opinion that he was "actively and entirely consciously engaging in spreading this disinformation"

yet you haven't shown one evidence of 1/ collusion 2/ partnership 3/ working with, working for etc..

you just "know", based on your strong intelligence/NATO credentials/experience?

so what: for that deserves to be extradited to and die in the US because of his releases on Afg./Iraq/cables?

I heard him criticize Putin and all authoritarians.
