My friends,This just dropped in my lap via my iPad, as I was checking one or two things before going beddie-bye.Arguably the most important issue for folk worldwide/ proper "weather vane" of what the future holds for us/ and the generations to come—will the US gets it hands on Julian Assange?It is to be noted that Assange's principal spoke-person lawyer/ atty, is NOT a big bold man. No. It is a very experienced Latina American lady. Native of Guatemala, she knows what serious heat is. American-style. She is an important part of Assange's team. She makes many important pointsLeader of the Assange Team? Jennifer Robinson; another woman; an Australian lawyer based in London Chambers, specialist in Human Rights matters.The final proceedings to secure this objective (so far as the Yank Govt/ Oligarchs are concerned) start on this Monday (24 Feb), here in that great defender of Human Rights—well, a few serious hiccups like with that Treasonous Tom Paine, who however managed to evade Geo III's Special Branch of the time—the dear old UK. The unfortunate thing is that unlike Paine; Assange did NOT manage to evade the US net. …UK has been effective gaoler of Assange nearly 10 years. They are keen to hand him over ASAP. With Boris a chum of Trumpie, things will be even easier. …That at least is what the US Govt has put huge efforts forward to achieve.The papers for Extradition were signed by the UK govt last June—on the quiet. I didn't pick up this notable event till Sept—but then I pay little attention to the meedja; it may have been leaked earlier. …Anyway, the process is due to run from Feb 24 through to June, when final determinations of the Court will be set forward. …It should be added that Due Process ensures the Appeal avenue will be open if needed. …Mmmmm.Anyway, a very interesting read. Thorough and factual.Also I would recommend the item under left hand column on the page—in fact click on this item below; and you'll get the radio programme (front-line stuff, by front-line people—spoken in American-ese, but coherent):
Julian Assange’s Attorney Speaks Out on the Hopes and Hazards of His Upcoming Trial in London on Feb. 24.
Again, and again. The great value of cyber-connections. These are matters of great importance to us all. Knowledgeable Nigerians, will nod. There will be wry smiles. Those whose knowledge goes back all the way to the "Treason Trials" of Awo in 1962, will recognise range of threat this Assange Issue means for all of us. Some in Nigerian Government will be fully briefed. They are well aware of what the Americans are capable.Time now finally for beddies. A very nasty storm blowing up outside in the black of night. More rain and bone chill. …Mmmmm.All best,Baba m
