Despite having committed no crime, Julian Assange is still under house arrest in Britain despite being released on bail. World leaders continue to call for his prosecution or even assassination, with US vice-President Joe Biden labelling Assange a “cyber-terrorist”.
Bradley Manning, the soldier who leaked US military documents and footage, continues to languish in prison and is facing a jail sentence of up to 52 years. Assange faces an initial extradition hearing on 11 Jan, and a further hearing on February 7 and 8.
The protests against this attack on free speech must continue.
Demands:
Hands off Wikileaks!
Defend Julian Assange!
Free Bradley Manning!
