Let me begin with saying that I understand why many American conservatives don’t like Julian Assange. Assange is a political liberal with an obvious lack of respect for authority, and he doesn’t have the most likeable personality either. The work he does also grates against the natural bent of most conservatives, which is to honor country and to support our nation. However, even though all of this might be true… it doesn’t mean that Assange is our (the American people’s) enemy.
Since Assange founded Wikileaks, with its stated mission of exposing government secrecy, lies, and misbehavior, he has successfully angered some of the world’s most powerful people. He’s exposed the Russian connection to the assassination of a Ukrainian politician, he’s proved that our government was breaking our laws and spying on innocent Americans, and he’s exposed the corruption, criminality, and malfeasance of hundreds of governments and world leaders.
No matter what you think of Assange and Wikileaks, the truth is that they have done more than most law enforcement agencies to expose criminal behavior of the world’s most powerful over the last decade or so.
For this, Assange has made himself many enemies, including the Democrat candidate for President, Hillary Clinton. While it’s not surprising that an establishment crony like Clinton would be anti-Assange, it is a bit surprising to learn of the lengths that she would have gone to in an effort to silence him.
In a story at True Pundit over the weekend, the world learned that Hillary Clinton once tried to “nominate” Assange for assassination!
