Paul Craig Roberts On Assange: "Justice Has Disappeared In The West"

• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Paul Craig Roberts

Justice has disappeared in the West. In Justice's place stands Revenge. This fact is conclusively illustrated by Julian Assange's ongoing eight year ordeal.

For eight years Julian Assange's life has been lived in a Kafka Police State. He has been incarcerated first under British house arrest and then in the Ecuadoran Embassy in London, despite the absence of any charges filed against him.

Meanwhile, the entirety of the Western world, with the exception of former Educadoran President Rafael Correa and a UN agency that examined the case and ruled Assange was being illegally detained by the UK government's refusal to honor his grant of political asylum, has turned its back to the injustice.

Assange is locked away in the Ecuadoran Embassy, because to protect him from false arrest, former Ecuadoran President Correa gave him political asylum. However, the corrupt and servile UK government that serves Washington, and not justice or law, refused to honor Assange's asylum. The US vassal known as the UK stands ready to arrest Assange on Washington's orders if he steps outside the embassy and to hand him over to Washington, where a large number of both Democrats and Republicans in Congress have said he should be executed. The Trump regime, carrying on the illegal practices of its forebears, has a secret indictment waiting to be revealed once they have their hands on Assange.
