Keeping Assange For Uncle Sam ?

Hantu Laut

Julian Assange has been released on bail.His hearing for extradition to Sweden on highly suspicious rape charges would takes months if not years.Since when having sex without using a condom becomes a crime.Was it a setup?

The question is was Sweden really interested in him or was it infuriated Uncle Sam that wanted him badly?

Assange's Wikileaks has communicated to the entire world some very unflattering and embarrassing documents that cried out loud and clear the arrogance and condescending ways of the U.S. administration and its atrocious and boggy foreign policy.

Uncle Sam looked at the rest of the world with disdain, particularly less developed countries.

Already dozens of U.S. lawmakers were screaming for his blood some asking him to be charged under the Espionage Act.This act provides for capital punishment and hefty jail term on those found guilty.Some have called for his assassination.

The irony is, in spite of the U.S. having Freedom of Information Act that allow full or partial disclosure of unreleased information and documents controlled by the government it can simply chose any document including non-sensitive but embarrassing information as classified items.

Are some of its communiques between its embassies and the State Department that portrayed world leaders in a bad light justified being classified information or were they kept classified to avoid embarrassment?

The world is watching how Britain handles the extradition.The U.S has not formally asked for his extradition.Most extradition are for serious crime or felony.Assange alleged crime is likely to be of political nature for which no extradition is available.

Britain may or may not extradite him to Sweden unless the Swedes have infallible case built against him.

Uncle Sam has already worked out how to get Assange to its soil.

Sweden may be easier to bully than Britain.

Lee Kuan Yew's Psychopathic North Korean.

From Wikileaks

"They are psychopathic types, with a 'flabby old chap' for a leader who prances around stadiums seeking adulation," said the document, classified as secret.

In the document detailing a conversation between Lee and US deputy secretary of state James B. Steinberg in May last year, Singapore's elder statesman said he would be surprised if the North Koreans agreed to give up their nuclear weapons.

Singapore's founding father Lee Kuan Yew called North Koreans "psychopathic" and leader Kim Jong-Il a "flabby old chap" who craved public worship, a US diplomatic cable released by WikiLeaks said.

Singapore's first prime minister who now holds the title of minister mentor in the cabinet compared the plight of North Koreans to his experiences living through the Japanese occupation of his country during World War II.

"MM Lee noted that he had learned from living through three and a half years of Japanese occupation in Singapore that people will obey authorities who can deny them food, clothing and medicine," the leaked document read.

Nuclear-armed North Korea might also give up its "first-strike capacity" but would keep its atomic weapons "in case the USG (US government) decides to seek a regime change," the cable read.

Lee also said he believed that Japan may "go nuclear" in response to North Korea's actions.

Lee told Steinberg that China would prefer a nuclear-armed North Korea than a North Korea that has collapsed because it sees the country as a buffer state.

"If China has to choose, Beijing sees a North Korea with nuclear weapons as less bad for China than a North Korea that has collapsed," Lee said, according to the account.

If North Korea failed, South Korea "would take over in the North and China would face a US presence at its border," the cable said of Lee's views.

Cry Rape:The Most Wanted Man Who Raped America Naked.

If it were to happen anywhere in Asia or Africa, the West would be screaming their heads off calling it blatant violation of human rights, state abuse of the free flow of information and judiciary running a kangaroo court.

What happened to Julian Assange?

Was he given a fair hearing? Did the English court adhere to the rules of law and natural justice.What happened to the English legal doctrine that protects against arbitrary exercise of power by ensuring fair play.

The English legal system clearly stated that no accused, or a person directly affected by a decision, shall be condemned unless given full chance to prepare and submit his case and rebuttal to the opposing party's arguments.

Why was Assange refused bail for a presumptuous and highly suspicious rape charges that manifested only after the release of Wikileaks documents to the world that have embarrassed the United States government and its allies.

The American are known for hiding wrongdoings of its military in war zones.

The famous "My Lai Massacre" during the Vietnam War was one such atrocities that prompted widespread outrage throughout the world.Mass murder conducted by a unit of the U.S. Army on defenceless civilians majority of whom were women, children and the elderly.Many of the victims were sexually abused, beaten and tortured.

If you believe in American justice than you may be the greatest fool and an incurable idiot.Of all the soldiers involved only one was convicted and the sentence ??? .....3 years under house arrest.

These are the very same people who killed innocent civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan, trampled on the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners whom they conveniently decide to brand as terrorists instead of as prisoners of war and accorded them the rights under the Convention.

These are the same people who make noise about the sodomy trail of Anwar Ibrahim and accused Malaysia of violation of human rights.

Was Assange given sufficient chance to present his case before he was found guilty by the court by denying him bail for what normally is a bailable offence. Was his crime any worse than murder where if the police or court deemed fit, bail was never denied. Many suspected rapists have been released on bail while awaiting their court cases.What makes Assange's case any different from the rest?

Assange has blown wide open to the world the cloak of secrecy, hypocrisy and double standards of the Western powers and he'll have to pay a heavy price for his intrusion into their secret and wicked domain.

For going against the powers that be, their dirty works, their scandalous manipulations of third world leaders and world politics, murder and blatant abuse of human rights in the war zones and their murderous wars to re-colonise certain parts of the world under the pretext of fighting terrorism, even the prestigious English court has succumbed to the hegemonic influence of the United States. The pre-trail detention of Assangee is unconstitutional.Is he such a dangerous criminal that justified denial of his rights.

Even worse, in his recent hearing for bail the English court after allowing him bail refused to release him while awaiting appeal from the prosecution which they claimed would come in the next 48 hours.

Isn't it absurd that after having given bail you can still detain a person? Was it flawed English law or a judge flawed in judgement?

Most suspected rapists get bail but Assangee crime seems worse than normal rape cases. Look at what the English court decision on what should have been the rule of law...a man is innocent until proven guilty.... but Assangee, who voluntarily surrendered to the police, is considered worse than a dangerous felon.

Bail was set at $310,000.Assange must spend every night at his given address and will be electronically tagged so the police can track his movements, subjected to curfew every day from 10 p.m to 2 a.m and from 10 a.m to 2 p.m and is required to report daily to the police from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.The police have also taken away his passport as under the terms of his bail he is not allowed to travel abroad.

Now, you can scorn the British judges, for succumbing to America's pressure that Assangee is a dangerous threat to the world, a kind of rapist/terrorist who raped naked the most powerful nation on earth.

Obviously, looking at the detention order, Mr Assange is held for treason and not for rape?

Now, you can also laugh at the West for what is clearly their double standards and hypocrisy?

Sweden was only a tool to get Assange on what obviously was a politically motivated crime made against him.The real culprit is the United States.

We should thanks Julian Assange and Wikileaks for exposing the misdeeds, murders and atrocities committed by the the rich and powerful nations particularly the United States.
