Highlights:

• "We talked about why he is in prison, and my first question to him was: 'what do you think this is actually about?'," to which Assange replied that he "first became famous when WikiLeaks published documents and videos that the US government had kept secret from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan that were politically embarrassing to the Pentagon - but that wasn't the red line. The red line was several years later, when WikiLeaks published information about surveillance by the CIA."

• "It's a total outrage that they're holding him, and he hasn't even committed or been charged with a crime in this country."

• "The inmates are treated like animals. And he's not an animal, he's a journalist who has committed no crime. And so, anyone who's in favor of that, anyone who supports his continued torture, is your enemy."

• "Assange looks like press photographs of him, maybe older, pale, he hasn't been outside in 13 years..."

As Paul Craig Roberts notes, the Assange situation "shows conclusively that Washington regards truth as its most dangerous enemy."

A country without a media cannot be free or have an accountable government.  Americans who think that they live in a free country are completely deluded. They are pathetic.
