Pink Floyd's Roger Waters: Assange being used as a warning to journalists

Fascinating discussion about Assange and free speech. Globalist trying very hard to shut down opposition.

More from Roger Waters . . .

And more . . . 

My favourite bit (talking about Bozo). . . ". . . he's a disgusting man, he's totally narcissistic, he's completely incompetent, he obviously feels deeply, deeply inferior which is why he sits up every night tweeting bullshit to people at 3am."

Roger Waters right on the button again!

"Classic! Oh and Trumpanzees, please note that when he's talking about stupid people swallowing propaganda, he's talking about you!"

From a man talking up a Commie...irony doesn't begin to describe it. The Wall has fallen but Communism is strong as ever. Funny how soon everyone forgot the horrors of the USSSR...Ah well, history is doomed to repeat. 

Goodness, Baboon-ou has gone very quiet on this thread.

Come on Baboon-ou, give us some more clips and/or quotes from your new hero Roger Waters. I mean, if he's saying it it must be true, right?

Right?

LMAO!

So Waters is right about Assange and the desire of the fascist left to stop free speech. He is of course hopelessly wrong about America's greatest President.

At least Redrooi he gets 50 % right which is 59%  better than you.

I see a number of Democrat governors are praising Trump for his leadership on the CV matter. 

America and the world can look forward to another 4 years of Trump leadership. 

These far left radical loons like rooitwit are so bitter and twisted now they will surely be in mental institutions by the time Trump leaves office. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. 

Redrooi showed his rugby ignorance by insisting Luke Watson was better than Schalk Burger - yes he did but he will probably deny it as is his usual modus operandi. That mistake pales into insignificance when compared to his absurd take on Trump. 

Anyhow Redrooi just suck it up its the fate losers like you have to repeatedly endure. Bwahahahaha. 

Umm the (Edit 34K ) 31K+ posts might be a hint...IT guy 

Plum, you've been put in Rooi's "Stupid Box"...and there's no escaping from there .

I notice he's become quite fond of your whoosh , Draad. 

This, to me, is a strange issue. 

I agree with Waters over Assange and it is no surprise that Tucker Carlson was the one to have him on his show to talk about his views on Assange. Tucker is also one who is totally against the persecution of Assange and he has, in the past defended Assange. 

What I do find strange is that Waters argues, correctly, that should Assange face charges, then outlets like the NY Times and the Washington Post should be in the dock with him because they further disseminated the material that Assange published. 

The DOJ and the IC is, of course, quite clever. Their charges, against Assange, is that he assisted (encouraged) Chelsea/Bradley Manning to hack into the DOD network to get more material. This, however, is debatable because they are not sure which, if any, of the material he got from Manning was received before or after his advice on the hacking. 

The charges against Assange, AFAIK, are not primarily related to the fact that he disseminated the info. This could be because of the big debate about his status as a journalist. At this stage, the DOJ/DOD/CIA/etc have decided/declared that Assange is not a journalist and therefore do not have the same protective privileges as a “normal” journalist. This has however not yet legally been determined in a court of law, simply because he Assange’s case has not yet been heard. 

The big irony about Waters’ outburst against Trump is that all these charges and concoctions have been made under the Obama administration. The Obama administration had big internal debates about how and under what laws to charge Assange. They were not sure whether or not to charge him under the espionage act. They were concerned about the effect that such charges would have on investigative journalism in general. In effect they knew that it would get their buddies in the MSM caught up in the net as well. 

The entire Assange/Wikileaks issue is very interesting and Waters’ take in it is very valid. The only issue I have is that, in the beginning of the interview, he referred to Assange’s stories. Assange never really published stories. If you go onto the WikiLeaks website you’ll see that it contains very little comments/stories, and is primarily made up of documentation that has been leaked to them. 

As far as Waters’ anti-Trump tirades are concerned, I’m not really interested in that. It is the normal celebrity rhetoric. He cannot afford to break ranks with them, can he?

What’s more, if he is so passionate about Julian Assange he should be as pissed off at the Obama administration as he is with Trump, or has he forgotten that the atrocities that Assange exposed actually took place under the Obama administration?

Great post Windpomp. 

Assange by publishing the Podests/DNC  emails gave American voters a peek into demonrat/Clinton corruption.

Since Trump became President the extent of this corruption and betrayal of Anerica has just grown and grown. Hence the attempted Coups against Trump.

The demonrats are sinking in a quagmire of corruption and anti American policies/activities.
