RE: Support for Assange Has Ecuador Back Down, Claiming 'No Plans' to Expel Assange
The largest pressure to be applied seems to be from the UN.
Why would the UN be a more legitimate authority to trust ?
Corrupt is corrupt, and the UN are top of the class.
Smoke and mirrors, methinks.
If Ecuador is dropping the plan to expel Assange as they say, this is a huge win as a result of public support for Assange. Thanks to the loud voices from within WikiLeaks and supporters around the world, especially in London in front of the Ecuadorian embassy. The pressure of free speech has forced Ecuador to back down.
I think 'we' have zero to do with it , to be honest.(cynical ole me, yeah , I know).
'if voting made a difference it would be illegal, and all that.'
IF ( a big 'if') there has been a change of plan, it's for other reasons....
Just because something is corrupt, doesn't meant everything they do is. Otherwise, it would be obvious to everyone that they had to merit to stand on. Nor does one corrupt organization meant they aren't less corrupt than another.
...'good' can - on a small scale- happen within the system - if, however, the system was borne out of fundamentally corrupt desires ( the need to consolidate power back in the 40/50's - and planned for years before it's execution) ..then , ultimately, that will be the fruits of the endevour.
It's just a clash of power between the UN and the US. Similar with what's going on in the EU with Macron vs Merkel. One party wants World Gov't under technocratic elite,the other World Gov't under the suzeranity of their own country/deep state. The circumstances are just that in these cases both the UN (supporting Assange) and Macron (supporting hard Brexit) happen to support the right cause, albeit for all the wrong reasons.
