The U.S. Justice Department has increased the
criminal charges against Wikileaks whistleblower, Julian Assange,
47, who published classified materials, exposing crimes by former
U.S. President and war criminal, George W. Bush. Assange requested
former U.S. soldier, Bradley Manning, who is now Chelsea Manning,
access the Pentagon's computer system and obtain files regarding
criminal wrongdoing.
Manning passed explosive files to Assange, who
published it on his Wikileaks whistleblower site, and in doing so
launched a number of scandals that have been embarrassing for the
former Bush administration and failed presidential candidate,
Hillary Clinton. However, it can be argued, if Bush and Clinton had
been following the law, Wikileaks would have nothing to expose.

The original indictment against Assange was
in reference to the Manning hacking incident and was for one
criminal count. The Justice Department has filed 17 new
charges against Assange alleging he violated the U.S.
Espionage Act. Assange is now facing the potential of a
170-year conviction and even the death penalty in the United
States. Assange in currently in a jail in London on charges
of jumping bail. He was sentenced to 50-weeks in prison. In
Britain that sentence is usually halved with good behavior.
The British government does not extradite people to
foreign nations if the death penalty is on the table. However, the
current Prime Minister, Theresa May, is not behaving in a rational
manner or inline with the law on a number of matters. This is
well-documented in the press. For example, May has deliberately and
fraudulently deported people who were lawfully in Britain for
decades, resulting in their premature deaths from stress related
illnesses, in the Windrush scandal.

May also deliberately and fraudulent
deported 50,000 paying university students, falsely claiming
they cheated on an English test she neglected to mention
she had rigged, via a company that has now been discredited.
The British Court of Appeal also ruled that massive
xenophobe May broke the law in refusing to accept 75
refugees, among them 19 children, from war torn nations.
Instead they were detained and in deteriorating conditions.
May's failed Brexit deals have also been deemed
illegal by legal scholars and politicians, in a matter where her
conduct is causing severe financial damage to the British economy
that was quite strong before she took office. Therefore, May cannot
be trusted to follow established British laws and protocols
regarding Assange.
