UK: Clinton Foundation and IS funded from the same sources – Assange

Published on Nov 4, 2016. A segment of John Pilger’s interview with Assange on RT.

Listen close. Understand what this man has been up against. I hope like hell he gets safe passage to the US to testify. He is the ultimate red pill — and the deep state know this. Chelsea Manning is now imprisoned for refusing to testify against Wikileaks and Assange in a secret grand jury.

 

Why the need for secrecy? You decide.

The warning is explicit towards journalists. What happened to the founder and editor of WikiLeaks can happen to you on a newspaper, you in a TV studio, you on radio, you running a podcast…”

Real journalism is being criminalized by thugs in plain sight, says John Pilger. Dissent has become an indulgence. And the British elite has abandoned its last imperial myth: that of fairness and justice. By John Pilger
