Trump’s new FBI head candidate? Mass surveillance, FISA advocate Mike Rogers. Rogers called Snowden a “traitor” for exposing mass surveillance and sits on the board of the security industry funded pro-surveillance, pro-censorship “Atlantic Council” as well as other contractors:

"Assange’s actions squarely fell under the protections of the law. But he angered the security state, which was powerful enough to push for a reinterpretation of a cornerstone of US law without any formal process."

“I was formally convicted by a foreign power for asking for, receiving and publishing truthful information about that power, while I was in Europe. The fundamental issue is simple: Journalists should not be prosecuted for doing their jobs.”

"The fundamental issue is simple: Journalists should not be prosecuted for doing their jobs.

Journalism is not a crime; it is a pillar of a free and informed society" - Julian Assange, Council of Europe

[WikiLeaks @wikileaks]

Julian Assange - "After 14 years detained in the UK… and facing a 175 year sentence, with the prospect of years more in prison before being able to have a shot at the European Court of Human Rights, I accepted a plea offer from the United States that would release me from prison immediately…. The US insisted that I not be able to take a case in relation to what happened to me, in relation to the extradition proceedings. Nor could I file a Freedom of Information Act [to the] US government...”

Kristinn Hrafnsson, WikiLeaks editor-in-chief, replies to a question at the Council of Europe today:

"What can be done when we have horrible stories about targeted killings? When we now have evidence of that in wars, it is the reality that reporting on wars is more severe than ever before and it was bad. It was bad in Iraq. Now it is even worse, it is a horror story.

It is hard to give out advice for these journalists how they can deal with that situation. The only thing we can call out at least is for an outcry and condemnation that this should be going on because we need information, we need this information.

There are no tools to secure individuals in Gaza that are being followed by drones and are being targeted in mass bombings. There is little defence from that. But the outcry and condemnation should be there. We should not be silent when this happens"
