Survivor of CIA Torture and Rendition Supports Assange at Extradition Trial
A lot of comments are (rightfully) condemning American atrocity, but let’s not lose sight that it is defense for Assange as well.<p>His actions clearly came with the moral imperative of whistleblowing - even just this one example shows the humanitarian crimes that would go unrevealed if the leaked documents weren’t published.<p>There’s just no way to pretend like Assange caused harm or violated law - whistleblowing is not stealing, it’s not treason, it’s not endangerment of affected government perpetrators. It’s the exposure of mass scale criminal murder and torture.
