Why Saving Assange Matters

27080158-8210957-image-a-33_1586633384510.jpg

The information that Assange’s partner stated recently calling him a wilting flower reminded me of last Fall.  I came out of work and it was the last really nice day of the year.  There is a grassy field behind the building and I could see all the monarch butterflies and little yellow butterflies flitting from flower to flower.  I stood and watched realizing that night would be the first real hard frost of Fall.  It made me feel very sad to know it was the end of their beauty for the year.  Knowing that they the beauty of summer would soon be the cold of winter.

Assange has slowly wilted away from the frost of Belmarsh prison.  The once brilliant, articulate man has trouble “thinking” when he is in court and no longer has the bright happy smile he once dazzled people with.  A star is burning out in a slow burn.  The worst part of this catastrophe is that his toddler children will never know the genius he was.  They may never even get to know their father at all.  His partner may never have the memories most people in love get to share from here on out.  This is simply because a government is ashamed of their behavior and tried to hide it unsuccessfully. It is due to a man who could not bear the injustice being served to the innocent.

Can Assange be saved? Yes, we can do that if the masses will pull together but he will never be the same.  We let this happen.  We watched as he slowly deteriorated in the Ecuadorian Embassy thinking he was safe as long as he had asylum.  Many ignored his worsening health and outward appearance.  There were a few of us who fought but not enough.  Now his blood will not only be on the hands of those seeking to martyr him but those who remain complacent.

Many say, there are much worse crimes being done to humanity, why should I try to save Assange? I will tell you why.  We cannot completely obliterate evil in this world but a little change goes far in the scheme of life.  Let me give you an example of how one person changed history.

The story of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar is a very sad tale.  God had promised Abraham a son but Sarah had barren for many, many years.  Sarah didn’t have the faith to trust in God so she turned to her servant Hagar to do what she was not able to do herself.  She sent her into Abraham’s tent.  Hagar gave birth to a son.  Out of jealousy and rage, Sarah had Hagar and her son cast out into the desert.  Due to one person’s act, a hatred that has lasted thousands of years was born.  Many say Ishmael was the father of the Mideast which led to Islam.  Sarah’s son Isaac was literally the father of the Jewish people.  Think of the lives this would have saved had Sarah just waited.

How does this relate to Assange?  By saving one person, a father, a son, a brother, and a friend, we can start something that future generations will be affected by.  We can begin something by simply freeing Assange who is literally giving his life for truth and justice.  We can save a hero and the story will be told for centuries or we can remain complacent and he can be another martyr.  The choice is yours my friend.

Julian Assange: How A Country Is Destroying a Family

27082824-0-image-a-58_1586636214163.jpg

In recent days, we have read about Julian Assange’s true love for his partner and the children they produced while he was in the Embassy.  We think about the father who is deteriorating behind bars and may very well die there.  We saw an interview with the mother of his two children, but have truly thought about what this will mean to them?

If Julian Assange dies in jail, these two toddlers will be without the father they dearly need in their lives.  They will grow up knowing that the U.K. and the U.S. killed their daddy.  They will know what tyranny is like firsthand.  They will be deprived of the man that loves them because of two selfish government bodies who could care less about the children.

Yes, it’s true.  Both of these countries on a daily basis could care less about what happens to the children their wars effect, they don’t count the cost because money is more important than compassion and truth.  All that matters is greed.  How many children are losing their parents because of the love of money?  How many children are starving, dying or watching as their parents die because of the root of all evil?

I Timothy 6:10a “For the love of money is the root of all evil.”

Truthfully, Assange is being martyred in prison because of materialistic monsters who are bloody thirsty for war because of profit.  Children around the world are suffering because of selfish, gluttonous rich people who prefer to fill their pockets rather than save lives.  Assange is literally giving his life that we would know what they really are.  Have you ever thought about this?  They are literally being paid to allow the death of innocent people.  They are turning their cheek while blood is shed in their name.

Even if you are not a Christian these verses should tell you what is in store for those gluttonous mongrels who call themselves the leaders of the people.

James 5:1-6

1 Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. 

2 Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 
3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 
4 Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 
5 You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. 
6 You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.
Hell is not good enough for those who hurt the children and what they are doing to Assange is truly hurting all his children.  How can they look in the mirror in the morning knowing they are destroying these children’s lives and others as well?  We must keep reminding ourselves of what Assange really stands for.  It is not just the truth.  He stood up for the innocent.  He exposed the death of the innocent by the evil who murdered them.  He published those documents so we knew exactly what our governments were hiding in their war crimes.
When we fight for Assange, we are fighting not only for him but for his children and the children whose lives were changed forever by the disgusting wars that destroyed their futures.  We are fighting for our children and children all over the world.  We are fighting evil.  We are in a battle for compassion and love.  We must show them that we will no longer tolerate their disgusting battles for money.  We must free Assange and free the children!

Questions Being Raised About Assange’s Trial Because of Covid-19

56e82216193059820ec585deb33f86c2

It has become obvious to anyone paying attention that both the British government and the U.S. government want Assange to die in prison.  In his last court hearing, he was unable to attend according to rumors because he was so unwell.  The state of his health and the lung condition he has makes him all the more likely to contract the Coronavirus.  By not granting him bail when he is only a remand prisoner and has not been found guilty of anything shows how little they want him alive.  What are they so afraid of?  He is one man against two governments, one of which is an empire and a superpower.

By willingly put Assange’s life at stake, they are committing murder.  We know as Covid-19 spreads that non-violent prisoners everywhere are being released to protect them.  Why not a journalist who never broke a law by publishing war crimes that the public needed to know?

It has also become evident whose side Vanessa Baraitser is on.  By treating Assange with such malice, she certainly is not on justice’s side.  Besides, who is she anyway?  No one had even heard of her before Assange’s incarceration.  She wants to put his partner’s name out for the public and put this woman’s life at stake, yet there is no evidence of her even having a past.  Is Baraitser even her real name?  Where does she come from even?

With everything being locked down if Assange were to run, where would he even run to?  He cannot even get out of England to go to Ireland without papers let alone any other country.  In his current condition, he is not healthy enough to even travel.  Julian Assange is dying and the British government is hoping he dies from the Coronavirus.  They may think this is an easy way out but everyone involved in his death will be held accountable.  Not only by society today but in the future.

As if the above is not enough, according to an article seen https://www.computerweekly.com/news/252481299/Judge-refuses-to-delay-Assanges-extradition-hearing-over-coronavirus-pandemic

“District Judge Vanessa Baraitser says extradition proceedings will go ahead against Julian Assange, after his lawyers argued that the coronavirus lockdown means they cannot prepare their defense”

Literally because of flights in and out of the U.S. not being allowed, many of the witnesses cannot attend the hearing.  Yet, Vanessa Baraitser refuses to postpone the hearing.  She stated they could appear by video link.  Putting their lives and Assange’s life in danger does not even phase this unjust judge.

In the above article:

Barrister Edward Fitzgerald, representing Assange, said his lawyers had been unable to communicate with their client or take instructions from Assange since before the lockdown.

“It is an exceptional situation we find ourselves in. We cannot do justice to Mr Assange if the case goes ahead in May,” he told the court.

District Judge Vanessa Baraitser said that the case should be heard quickly and that the second part of Assange’s extradition hearing was still five weeks away.

So tell me your honor, where is justice?  Do you understand anything other than treating Assange like a hardened terrorist?  Have you even read any of the facts in this case?  Or are you just sitting there waiting to slam your gavel down to put a journalist away for life?  It is obvious you don’t give a damn.

Please, please contact your elected leaders, the British judicial system and anyone who will listen to help save this man’s life.  He depends on the working class.  His children depend on you to save their father.  His family does too.

 

How The Elite Gain More Power Through Social Distancing and the Coronavirus

avoiding-bankruptcy-may-make-sense.jpg

 

I was driving home from getting groceries today and had time to think.  I was thinking about the negative impact the Coronavirus will have on the economy and small businesses.  If this continues much longer, small family businesses will go bankrupt as they don’t make any money during this time of tragedy.

Do you know who benefits?  The elite.  Big corporations.  The establishment.  This will put Mom and Pop shops nonexistent because you can’t pay your bills if you have no customers.  The ones who will survive are the big boys.  The huge corporations that make billions.  Places like Walmart and Amazon and the drug companies.  It almost seems to be on purpose so they can create monopolies and control prices, doesn’t it?  It almost makes you wonder if they didn’t use this as an excuse to destroy the little guys.

If that isn’t enough, guess who is getting the big bailouts right now from the government?  Not the small entities or the little guys, It’s actually the big corporations who already get corporate welfare and go from stimulus to stimulus.  The assholes at the top are getting bailed out again.  Those of us who need help because we have no jobs are getting a small 1200 dollars.  1200 dollars won’t pay the rent in some areas!  Are we supposed to all starve while we wait for unemployment to kick in and to get that measly 1200 dollars?  Why does our government including Trump think that this will help those of us who live paycheck to paycheck? Something is wrong with our system when only the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

Many people who are actually getting tested for the virus are paying upwards of 7 grand for a simple test.  Imagine having a bill that big if you don’t have any kind of insurance.  If your job was shut down in March like most of us, your insurance ran out on April 1st.  This is going to bankrupt most of the country while the big dogs are rescued.  This is not fair.  Isn’t it time Americans put their foot down and said enough is enough.

The only good thing this outbreak proves is that money doesn’t trickle down, it trickles up.  Without the low people buying your product, you will go bankrupt.  The elite should keep in mind without us their billions will be nonexistence in a matter of time.  In fact, if you want a peaceful way to make change happen, boycott their asses.

Bible Verses on Fear and Anxiety: How Christians Should Handle the Coronavirus

Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air: They do not sow or reap or gather into barns–and yet your Heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

(Matthew 6:25-34)

22Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat, or about your body, what you will wear. 23For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap; they have no storehouse or barn, yet God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than the birds!

25Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?c 26So if you cannot do such a small thing, why do you worry about the rest?

27Consider how the lilies grow: They do not labor or spin.d Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his glory was adorned like one of these. 28If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith!

29And do not be concerned about what you will eat or drink. Do not worry about it. 30For the Gentiles of the world strive after all these things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31But seek Hise kingdom, and these things will be added unto you.

 

In these times of panic and hoarding for fear of the unknown, people have gone a bit insane.  The Coronavirus has locked us down in our houses, people have emptied stores out as though there will be a great plague and many no longer have jobs.  Fear and anxiety are running rampant and all the signs of despair and depression are taking over many. So how do we as Christians act at this time of great worry?

We walk by faith and hope and love.  Jesus told us in the above verses we should not worry, He’s got this.  Give it to Him in these times.  He will provide.  He conquers our fear and replaces it with peace.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Philippians 4:6-7 | NIV

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.

Joshua 1:9 | NIV

As a servant of Christ, Our Lord and Savior, we know by prayer and giving him our anxiety He will deliver us.  How can we as Christians be the light of the world?  By standing strong in this time of great fear and tribulation.  By being an example to others. By giving to the needy and showing those in need love.

Deuteronomy 31:8 “He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”

We can leave God and not serve Him but He is always with us.  He always takes care of our needs if we rely on him through faith.  He will take care of you if you let Him.  So don’t worry, don’t be afraid. God loves you and sees what you need.  You might not have brand new items or be rich, but He will provide.

Do you remember the story of the loaves of bread and the fish?

Matthew 14:13-21 New International Version (NIV)

Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand

13 When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.

15 As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”

16 Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.”

17 “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18 “Bring them here to me,” he said. 19 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. 20 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 21 The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.

If He can feed 5000 with two fish and five loaves of bread, how much more can He give you when you are need?

Calling For Justice in the Assange Case

fb_img_1578703120375313037054.jpg

According to an article on Yahoo News (see it here), the United Kingdom refuses to release Assange temporarily due to the spread of the Coronavirus in Belmarsh Prison. Quoted from the above article:

Julian Assange, who is being held on remand in Belmarsh prison, will not be temporarily released because he’s not serving a custodial sentence and therefore not eligible.

Where has justice gone? Have we laid it at the feet of evil for it to digest? Are we offering up a prophet of our time as though it will appease evil? Have we become so used to death, violence, and torture that we complacently will watch the death of a journalist while the criminals walk free?

I want to scream from the rooftops. I want to yell it in Times Square. “WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH SOCIETY?”

This disgusting farce of a trial will go on and a kangaroo court will martyr Assange and most will go on about their day like nothing happened. It goes beyond disgust when his supporters think of this. Travesty of justice does not even describe it. It is a horrifying display of elitists ruling over the minions like slaves. Assange went against their protocol by exposing their wickedness and immorality and they want to make an example to keep others in line. The oligarchy we live in only becomes worse with as each day goes by. The Coronavirus has already shown that people will obey orders like the slaves they are. If you think this virus was accident, perhaps we should look at it more closely.

Even though more and more top doctors, lawyers, psychiatrists and even the human rights council of Europe have stood up and called this torture and betrayal of justice what it is, it still goes on. Soon, it will be a norm for journalists to be put on trial for telling the truth. Freedom is on trial in the U.K. and the U.S. government holds the reins and will see to it they use the whip to get their way. Unfortunately for those of us who love Assange for what he has done, we can only pray people wake up before he dies in prison.

Psychological Torture Also Known As No-Touch Torture

d7f03d253691e07b78a7c791bc7985e9

R-8227816-1457532553-5114.jpeg

Torture is never an easy topic to discuss. It is often horrifying. Most people connect the word torture to violence and the past but there are different types of torture. One of which is psychological. Psychological torture often is not viewed as torture by Western countries. In fact, psychological torture is most commonly used by the United States government. The technique is used because it leaves no marks on the individual physically only mentally. The CIA believes it works to gain intelligence.

According to an article by globalresearch.ca seen here:

The idea is to shake up the emotional states of the target because different information can be accessed at each state. Making the target feel despair and helplessness is the objective. This cycle of hope building and then breaking is done in many ways. The techniques between the physical methods and the no-touch technological methods are similar. Speech is very important during this process of emotional manipulation. Such examples are, “We have imprisoned you without due processes or hope of it. You are indefinitely detained.” Hope building examples include, “Sorry. We have mistaken you for someone else. You will be compensated for false imprisonment and torture.” The main difference between the cybernetic technology and physical is that emotional state clusters can be entrained into the target mind which speeds up the process. The communication is done differently but perceived as human speech. In the no-touch torture methods it is helpful if the target is labeled with mental illness that is being created for discrediting purposes so as not to draw human rights groups’ attention.

Isolation is commonly used as punishment in prisons. Many whistleblowers like Bradley Manning suffer this condition. In soft interrogation it is used to get the target to talk to their interrogator since humans have the need for companionship. In no-touch torture the target is driven from their friends and family using different techniques in order to isolate them so that the electronic mind control has more effect on their psyche.

Like in Guantanamo, the target becomes isolated losing their job and medical care. Part of the method involves slander in their community. They end up on the most part in poverty and paranoid about doctors and other people from false correlations that are purposefully induced into their lives. Isolation is also a form of sensory deprivation which will be discussed later. Days and weeks lose their meaning.

This is a topic for a target at the beginning of the trials and programs. Physical break-ins are common even if the target has an alarm system. The NSA has used stalking of foreign officials in the past for economic gain. The FBI does black bag jobs to invade a home without a warrant. The point is to let the target know they are being watched and to increase their paranoia. The NSA easily hacks all computer systems and causes harm to the victim’s intellectual property and their relationships from that endpoint. In the no touch torture false correlations between pain and a neighbor coming home can be induced.

Again, this technique of overloading or depriving the human of sensory stimulus is ubiquitous in torture around the world not just in U.S. secret prisons. Torture subjects in the United States have reported the use of repetitive bad music and noise campaigns. An unusual torture technique used in the U.S. secret prisons was of a use of a plastic suit filled with ice while they beat the target. Ultra bright lights for days on end in the prison and hot/cold temperature changes in the environment are frequent. In no-touch torture, the target’s brain is forced to release dopamine which causes pupil dilatation. This acts as a sensory overload. For example the non-lethal microwave weapons research done by a professor in University of Nevada has shown this capability. Body metabolism can be altered with these weapons causing cold and hot flashes. Targets of no-touch torture often hear endless tinnitus.

This is the number one torture method along with the popularity in the press of waterboarding. This is done in every country that uses torture. The United States is number one in torture since they are currently the world’s only superpower. A repetitive sleep deprivation cycle is generally done 180 hrs/7.5 days at a time in the physical renditions, or in no-touch torture five days awake and two days of sleep. Sleep deprivation accomplishes the objective of memory loss during interrogation and induces hallucinations which help with the interrogation process. In behavior modification and programming, it is necessary too.

Another technique was used on Chelsea Manning during her 7-year imprisonment term involving stripping her naked and walking her in front of her peers. Sexual humiliation is a common technique. Filming the person regardless of where they are, guards making snide comments as the person bathes or uses the restrooms and even rape have been used to torture victims.

Another technique is touch starvation. This literally involves not allowing the person to be touched by other individuals. Humans are wired to be touched from birth. Children in Yugoslavia who were left without touch literally became mentally handicapped due to the fact they were not being held in the orphanages. Adults also will suffer. Touching releases the chemical oxytocin which reduces stress and allows the immune system to work better. Also, it reduces heart rate.

What is known as “mobbing” is a form of torture as well. Mobbing involves a group of individuals attacking a person, exclusion, intimidation and other forms of emotional abuse is used on that individual. A current situation would be the use of slander used by the media to discredit Assange as well as smear him. Another would be the constant death threats against Assange used by many government officials. The effects of mobbing include but are not limited to:

  • Stress
  • Anxiety
  • Panic attacks
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Higher blood pressure
  • Ulcers
  • anxiety
  • depression
  • irritability
  • cognitive disorders
  • hallucinations
  • paranoia
  • self-inflicted injuries.

In an article by the American Psychology Association, they state some very interesting facts.

At a June 19 hearing, Craig Hanry, PhD, showed pictures to illustrate solitary confinement’s harsh conditions, including filthy cells that are “scarcely larger than a king-sized bed,” he said. As a result of the endless monotony and lack of human contact, “for some prisoners … solitary confinement precipitates a descent into madness.” Many inmates experience panic attacks, depression and paranoia, and some suffer hallucinations, he said.

Former inmate Anthony Graves, who spent 18 years on death row, including 10 in solitary confinement for a murder he didn’t commit, drove home Hanley’s points. “I would watch guys come to prison totally sane, and in three years they don’t live in the real world anymore,” he said. One fellow inmate, Graves said.

Such long-term effects are common, Haney said. “One of the very serious psychological consequences of solitary confinement is that it renders many people incapable of living anywhere else.” Then, when prisoners are released into cells or back into society, they are often overwhelmed with anxiety. “They actually get to the point where they become frightened of other human beings,” he said.

Psychological torture is exactly that. It must be outlawed and no longer used as a form of punishment or coercion. The United States prides itself on not participating in human rights violations yet it is the number one violator. It is time to hold these organizations liable for the harm they are doing to prisoners and others. Psychological torture is not only a human rights violation but is evil. Many advocate to end this form of abuse. Will you?

Why Supporting The Guardian As An Assange Supporter Is Stabbing Him in The Back

20190103_1612051016413637.jpg

Angel Fox protesting at the Guardian January 2nd, 2018 against the alleged Manafort meetings

I see many people retweeting and sharing the Guardian’s articles regarding Assange lately.  This bothers me immensely after what they did to him.  If it was not enough that they released the key to the cables which put others in danger and let Assange take the blame, they have spent nearly a dozen years smearing him.  There’s even more to this story than just that.

Let us start with an article titled “The Guardian’s War on Assange” seen here in its entirety. John Pilger explains:

The Guardian has exploited the work of Assange and WikiLeaks in what its previous editor called “the greatest scoop of the last 30 years”. The paper creamed off WikiLeaks’ revelations and claimed the accolades and riches that came with them.

With not a penny going to Julian Assange or to WikiLeaks, a hyped Guardian book led to a lucrative Hollywood movie. The book’s authors, Luke Harding and David Leigh, turned on their source, abused him and disclosed the secret password Assange had given the paper in confidence, which was designed to protect a digital file containing leaked US embassy cables.

Then, of course, there is the article they published in November of 2018 titled “Manafort had secret talks with Assange in Ecuadorian Embassy” by none other than Luke Harding.  There was no truth in this article as there was no proof he ever visited.  The Ecuadorian Embassy has a sign-in book and there is no evidence Manafort was ever there.  The problem with this lie is it sealed the deal for Assange to evicted and his refugee status removed.  Pressure from the U.S. government and their bribe ended with Assange brutally arrested and illegally removed from the Embassy on April 11, 2019.

They have also continuously pushed a Russian narrative framing Assange as the reason for Trump being elected.  They also push the narrative that Assange is not a publisher or a journalist. Their attacks on Assange are simply predictable and are intended to not only smear him but destroy him.

Still, there is more.  In the article listed above, they name 44 Guardian articles smearing Assange.  You ask why?  To protect themselves from the prosecution they so richly deserve for dropping those files before Assange had a chance to redact the names contained in them.  The Guardian is the one responsible for putting lives in danger, not Wikileaks!  Harding and Leigh should be the ones behind bars!

When a publisher of News like The Guardian has published 44 articles in a campaign to destroy one man and his organization, one has to know that they are protecting themselves.  By retweeting and sharing their articles,  Assange supporters are stabbing him in the back regardless of if the article contains any truth or not.  We must stop doing this!  You are supporting the enemy! Please, do not retweet or share their articles.  If you give it a few hours, other news outlets will often publish the same story.  The Guardian is worthless trash with an agenda.  The only reason you are seeing reports of Assange support now is that they know they are at risk!
