………………………………………….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The arrest of Julian Assange not only puts the free press in the United States at risk, it puts any reporters who expose US crimes anywhere in the world at risk. As <\/em>Pepe Escobar wrote<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet\u2019s cut to the chase.\u00a0Julian Assange is not a US citizen, he\u2019s an Australian. WikiLeaks is not a US-based media organization. If the US government gets Assange extradited, prosecuted and incarcerated, it will legitimize its right to go after anyone, anyhow, anywhere, anytime.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Assange prosecution requires us to build a global movement\u00a0to not only free Julian Assange, but to protect the world from the crimes and corruption of the United States and other governments.\u00a0The reality is that\u00a0<\/em>Freedom of Press for the 21st Century<\/em><\/a> is on trial.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
