      Thanks for this john. I've been following this sad development and watching the entire fiasco unravel on every front. I used some strong language a few days back, and the light of this I don't resile from it one jot.

      “They made him very ill by refusing him ANY access to life sustaining fresh air, exercise, sun/VitD or proper medical care for 6 YEARS of illegal Embassy detention
      Kristinn Hrafnsson, WikiLeaks' editor-in-chief, wrote that "Julian's case is of major historic significance. It will be remembered as the worst attack on press freedom in our lifetime. The People need to voice their condemnation; it is their politicians, their courts, their police and their prisons that are being abused in order to leave this black stain on history. Please act now to avert this shame".

        Unfortunately the mass campaign to vilify Assange has done its work. 
        Even on this supposedly progressive site, the attack lines are relentlessly repeated 
        "Melzer went on:
        “In the course of the past nine years, Mr. Assange has been exposed to persistent, progressively severe abuse ranging from systematic judicial persecution and arbitrary confinement in the Ecuadorian embassy, to his oppressive isolation, harassment and surveillance inside the embassy, and from deliberate collective ridicule, insults and humiliation, to open instigation of violence and even repeated calls for his assassination.”

        We should be out in the streets over this

          I looked at the letter writing to Assange at Belsem? Prison campaign, it advises to put in a plain sheet of paper and self addressed envelope with UK stamps for reply – of course he woud need a pen or pencil.    I have not been able to find NZPost information about how to deal with pre-paid mail in other country's currency.   At present I have a question placed yesterday about this but have received no email reply.
          I asked about stamps or an international coupon which I imagine there should be available but who knows it seems to me that NZ Post is just managing down the business.  If I could buy a pre-paid envelope rather than stamps – that would be practical.  I thought they might have replied by now.

          …deliberate collective ridicule, insults and humiliation…  We have seen that on this site frequently and from people who one would expect to have been on the side of exposing the secrets of powerful people and countries willing to destroy others for their purposes.  
          For good people to do nothing….  Have I got time to be good, what with all the other things I give my time to, as well as my own living tasks for me, my family, friends and community?     These sort of unworthy thoughts about my lack of action are I think echoed by quite a number.
          We should be out in the streets for Assange, but the attention now is on climate change and receiving a living wage for those who are trying to hold society together and retain the advances that were gained by exhaustive social interaction last century.  
          Got to keep trying to do it all or the golden bulldozer driven by a robot with such a cheeky, lovable grin in such a cute hat, will scoop us all up.    Ever looked at the photos of naked bodies being thrown into burial pits in Holocaust archives?   That sort of thing has happened multiple times in even near history.   Those images should be in everyone's minds;  the reality of what we can do when we have our mind setting on the mark of Cold, Hard, Unfeeling, Uncaring, Unrespecting, Unloving, and Choose your level of Evil – Eager, Sometimes, Neutral, Not sure, Wrestling against it every day.

          They are trying to kill Julian Assange
          Martha S.
          The so-called journalists of the msm are presstitutes, they write what is expected from them. They sold their soul.

          That Mike Who? is one of the best paid presstitutes infesting NZ airways and press.

    "Treasury hacking: The time I hacked WINZ – Keith Ng."
    Remember the fuss when Keith discovered the "hole" in WINZ? He did the right thing by informing WINZ about the "hole." Bridges didn't did he?
    Imagine if you only saw the last part of the process. Imagine you didn't see the first 200,000 times where the security system blocked access, and you just saw the 200,001st attempt. You would simply see the hacker walk in and succeed at accessing the information. You might think there was no security at all.
