Seems obvious the US is setting up forward operating bases for confrontation is SE Asia.

Australia deserves its fate, as does NZ. Both countries wouldn't give up their Anglo-Saxon supremacy notions and kept the monarch of a foreign country as their head of state.

Serves them right, hahaha!!

The Aussies need to settle down. This is all being done to save and protect democracy in the world. Losing your nation’s sovereignty is a small price to pay for “saving their democracy.”

We have to destroy both democracy and sovereignty in order to save them.

All the aforementioned former politicians/officials played their obsequious part in getting Australia to where we are today [see Wikileaks]. Meanwhile, Julian Assange arrived in Australia on 26 June, and has not spoken or been seen in public since. He has been disappeared.

The plea deal contained no restrictions on him speaking. Assange walked off the plane in Canberra, with fists defiantly raised, and he hasn't said a single word publicly in 2 months.. The indefinite "rest and recover", "he may never want to speak again" narrative being advanced is just too convenient for the deep state. Assange's main complaint to the UN torture rapporteur was "I am voiceless". Speculation and excuses is not what WikiLeaks was about, so until Julian Assange speaks for himself, he not free.

That's why I'm so worried.

It is illogical that Julian Assange would have not a single word to say, even to announce his intention to take a break, if he was not under some formal restrictions.

The most obvious formal restriction I can think of would be under Australia's national security laws [given that he is now a convicted felon in the US under the Espionage Act], such as the secret restrictions that could be placed upon him under the ASIO Act.

That's why I say until Julian Assange is able to speak freely for himself, he is not free.
