    Right, but the legal process that came about as a result of their anger was clearly manipulated and influenced by the US.

    Well that has still not been proven, but it looks suspicious.

    I don't subscribe to conspiracy theories. You are way off the mark with the John Yoo reference. Google Bush Lawyer.

    A bit more on the situation of Assange and support in Australia.

    https://citizentruth.org/australian-parliamentary-group-advocates-for-assanges-return/

    I remember that at the time the US released what its charges were, there was a round up of journalists in Australia who had provided information the Government did not like. That looks like what is being set in motion and why the UK and Australia are going along with this.

    Come on. What do you expect as a response to this:

    Name these people operating what specific system who are pathological liars and torturers.

    Well, it's already an established fact that both the US and UK governments maintained programs that used and facilitated torture.

    And it's already an established fact that the US and UK governments lied about the war in Iraq.

    So calling labeling the individuals that comprise such institutions as liars and torturers doesn't appear to be a "theory" at all.

    Not sure about the UK but I do concede Gitmo in the case of the US.

    This was your Mission, and you did not start it let alone complete it.

    Name these people operating what specific system who are pathological liars and torturers

    Glad the issue of individual jurisdictional claims and sovereignty is being brought up.

    Not sure if it's already been posted, but here is the best summary I've read on what is happening to Assange.

    Sorry, most people DO subscribe to conspiracy theories, whether official or unofficial. It's a high probability that you subscribe to the former.

    Sorry again, when I see "Bush Lawyer" I cannot help but think of John Yoo, Anthony Gonzalez, and Jay Bybee.

    Of course, Assange's point of view.
    Despite its charter to be politically neutral, the Australian ABC
    is quite leftist in its outlook. I couldn't help but hear Assange's
    voice in each sentence O'Brien here was saying. Sad really.

    So, he has obviously been tortured and drugged and railroaded by the legal system.

    Again, another reason to maintain my anarchist tendencies...

    I suspected that was the case. I'm guessing you're not yet 30 years old.

    In a nutshell, those men were all Bush lawyers in the White House. They enabled the torture the US practiced. Bybee is teaching law school at Stanford, so that young lawyers can be trained to ignore the rule of law.

    You are acting like a kid who does nothing but say "why why" to anything said. That and the "denial of the obvious" tactic. Not just this post -but in general in this thread.

    "what specific system" - Our Justice system
    "Who are Pathological liars" The Pentagon, State Department, Intelligence agencies, Mainstream Media ...
    "Who are torturers" Pentagon, State Department, CIA ... never heard of Extraordinary rendition ? aka (Torture program)

    We have this tool now called the internet .. you can search any topic and get information. You can type in things like "CIA - Torture" and it will give you information.

    I did not say they did ? The administration is a bunch of liars as well - and they choose the Attorney General.

    We have a system that is run by Pathatlogical liars and torturers. The groups I mentioned are part of the system of Gov't - a part of which is the Justice system ...and while the groups mentioned do not run the Justices system - they work in conjunction with the people that do. The Pentagon has its own justice system -

    If you want closer to the source ... I gave that to you Attorney General - FBI is involved in our Justice System Shall we delve into Mueller's history ? That is an example that was a clown show full of kangaroos - pathalogical liars and torturers .. Who authorizes the CIA to engage in Extraordinary Rendition - if not someone associated with our Judicial system.

    Your just being obtuse for the sake of being obtuse.

    Not at all. I am trying to urge you to cease with your very broad brush use. You throw all those pigeonm holes around as if they genuinely exist and are accommodating genuinely corrupt evil bastards all over the place. That is far too large a bow to be drawing for my liking.

    They do genuinely exist - and I gave you an example of one Mueller - who is part of the Justice system .. In addition - I have you examples of other departments ... some related to the Justice system .. up to and including the Admin that are are run by "evil bastards".

    What else would you like ? How many examples of dirty deeds would you like ?

    How about we quantify the number of Evil Bastards in Congress .. would that not be fun ?
