Julian Assange Writes A Letter Back To Collective Evolution
In Brief
We
are in a particularly important time in human history. After millennia
of being told what to do by unimaginably powerful rulers as though we
were young children clinging to parental authority (and we were, for the
most part), the majority of humanity (i.e. those not in the highest
echelons of the ruling class) are being offered a choice: take control
of our destiny or continue to consent to our ever-increasing
enslavement.
The signs are out there for all to
see–all those, that is, who have the slightest desire to look beyond the
naive and childish perception that continues to be promulgated by
mainstream media. You won’t hear about it on CNN, but a global
totalitarian surveillance state is being built up right in front of our
eyes, and our collective response to it has been, let’s be honest, a bit
tepid.
Just as one example, we see strong
evidence that dearly beloved Google and Facebook are not the products of
rags-to-riches stories of young geniuses, but rather were possibly long
conceived and carefully implemented by those who have ruled the planet
from the start, complete with cover stories of ‘fortuitous
entrepreneurship’ that we fell for at first but now are unraveling
because of greater public scrutiny and brave whistleblower testimony.
With Facebook (formerly DARPA’s ‘Lifelog’)
showing that they are in the business of harvesting rather than
protecting private data, and Google buying up AI assets like DeepMind in
order to facilitate the installation of a global surveillance system,
it is becoming clear that they were always key cogs in a generational
plan aimed at total control over the planet. Other aspects like 5G,
vaccines and Big Pharma in general, GMOs, private Central Banks and fiat
currency, the Vatican, Human Trafficking and Pedophilia and many other
components of our current society can ultimately be seen as having a
place in this complex, dark web of deceit.
What chance do we really have? Well, we
have truth on our side. That is more powerful than anything. But in
today’s environment, we have to fight tooth and nail for its protection
and proliferation.
Julian Assange
In this regard, there is probably no
single figure that is as emblematic of our current struggle as Wikileaks
founder Julian Assange. Remember that Wikilieaks is an
international non-profit organisation that has been publishing news
leaks and classified media provided by anonymous sources since 2006,
many of which directly reveal the deception, fraud, corruption and
serious crimes of the ruling class. It is within this context that we
must understand the threats to Assange’s safety and freedom since 2010,
and the reasonable assumption that it is those whose reputations and
criminal enterprises were most threatened by Wikileaks’ activities that
have tried to characterize him as a criminal and have been making the
push for Assange’s indictment, extradition and ultimately incarceration
in order to quash the publishing of this kind of information. Here is a
timeline of his battle, most of which covers the period of time he
was holed up at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London (June 2012–April 2019) :
- August 2010 – The Swedish Prosecutor’s Office first issues an arrest warrant for Mr Assange. It says there are two separate allegations – one of rape and one of molestation. Mr Assange says the claims are “without basis”
- December 2010 – Mr Assange is arrested in London and bailed at the second attempt
- May 2012 – The UK’s Supreme Court rules he should be extradited to Sweden to face questioning over the allegations
- June 2012 – Mr Assange enters the Ecuadorean embassy in London
- August 2012 – Ecuador grants asylum to Mr Assange, saying there are fears his human rights might be violated if he is extradited
- August 2015 – Swedish prosecutors drop their investigation into two allegations – one of sexual molestation and one of unlawful coercion because they have run out of time to question him. But he still faces the more serious accusation of rape
- October 2015 – Metropolitan Police announces that officers will no longer be stationed outside the Ecuadorean embassy
- February 2016 – A UN panel rules that Mr Assange has been “arbitrarily detained” by UK and Swedish authorities since 2010
- May 2017 – Sweden’s director of public prosecutions announces that the rape investigation into Mr Assange is being dropped
- July 2018 – The UK and Ecuador confirm they are holding ongoing talks over the fate of Mr Assange
- October 2018 – Mr Assange is given a set of house rules by the Ecuadorean embassy
- October 2018 – It’s revealed he is to launch legal action against the government of Ecuador – accusing it of violating his “fundamental rights and freedoms”
- December 2018 – Mr Assange’s lawyer rejects an agreement announced by Ecuador’s president to see him leave the Ecuadorean embassy
- February 2019 – Australia grants Mr Assange a new passport amid fears Ecuador may bring his asylum to an end
- April 2019 – The Metropolitan Police detain him for “failing to surrender to the court” over a warrant issued in 2012
- May 2019- Sweden reopens sexual assault investigation and US files 17 new charges against Mr Assange
If we look at what has happened since
Mr. Assange was forced out of the Ecuadorian embassy in April, it
becomes clear that he had every reason to suspect that powerful forces
were just waiting to get their hands on him, and would use every ounce
of force available to them to intimidate Assange and any others who
would follow in his footsteps.

If you thought that perhaps he is being
treated fairly, consider this: on the mere charges that Julian Assange
did not obey the conditions of his bail in 2012 (doing so only because
he legitimately feared for his safety and believed he would not be
treated in a just manner), he spent most of his 50-week sentence in
isolation, with no access to the internet or any news of what is
happening in the outside world. He was allowed only 2 social visits per
month, and according to those who have visited him, like his brother,
his emaciated body and spirit are signs that he is being systematically
weakened physically and emotionally in prison conditions that are worse
than for terrorists. In addition to this, Assange has now been held
beyond the September 22nd end of his sentence because of District Judge
Vanessa Baraitser’s “substantial” belief that Assange could “abscond
again.”
This is the state of affairs in which my letter found him.
Writing To Julian Assange
I happened to come across a website that
said that it is possible to send letters to Julian Assange in prison.
The website printed a few letters that people had received, and
specified that the following address had to be used including his
prisoner number and date of birth:
Mr Julian Assange
Prisoner #: A9379AY
DOB: 03/07/1971
HMP Belmarsh
Cell 23 Healthcare
Western Way
London SE28 0EB
UK
It also stipulated that your own return
address has to be written on the back of the envelope. So I decided to
go ahead and follow those instructions in sending him this letter:
A month later, while I was away in New Zealand conducting an important interview (which will be presented on CETV shortly), I received this reply from Julian Assange:
While I had hoped to get some
information that Mr. Assange may have wanted to get out into the public,
I now realize that, first of all, any information that he wrote that
could be potentially damaging to the authority would probably not get
out beyond the prison walls. And secondly, I came to realize what Julian
Assange is trying to do with the limited means that he has at his
disposal: he is attempting to galvanize a movement around freedom of
speech and safety for those who attempt to exercise that freedom for the
benefit of humanity.
In other words, there is nothing more
for Julian Assange to say that will ameliorate this situation, aside
from exhorting all individuals who believe that free speech needs to be
fought for and preserved to become active in the struggle. This
can currently center around voicing our support for his freedom from
further incarceration and forced extradition. Flooding Belmarsh prison
with letters is one way to send a message, and is an exercise that I
would certainly recommend that would only take 10 minutes of your time.
Being part of movements that are starting up online or in your
communities is another way. I don’t know enough about these
“FreeAssange” and “ProtectAssange” movements to endorse any particular
one but I would invite those interested to seek them out online while
using their proper discernment.
Is It Really Julian Assange Responding?
I’ve been asked by a couple of people as
to whether this letter is really from Julian Assange. My response to
that is, why wouldn’t it be? Is it reasonable to suspect that the Deep
State lurking, intercepting these letters, and then responding in such a
benign way?
I would imagine someone would have done
some handwriting analysis/comparison by now, and that some of his family
who have visited him would be dissuading people from sending letters if
they were not getting through to him. I am including the front and back
of the envelope here in case it helps the internet sleuths
determine this letter’s authenticity for themselves.
But at the end of the day, is it
essential to the cause that Julian Assange is penning these letters? Do
any of you reading this not believe that freedom of speech and freedom
of information have long been under attack, and that the only way that
the powerful forces who would censor and destroy evidence of their own
high crimes and misdemeanours will be upended is if we stand together as
a collective of conscious individuals and uphold the freedoms that are
our birthright?
Let’s be clear: the alleged ‘crime’ that
is really at play here is the same one that was immortalized in the
movie ‘The Post,’ where newspapers were vindicated by the Supreme Court
after publishing the Pentagon Papers, classified documents that
were embarrassing to the U. S. government regarding the 20 year
involvement of the United States government in the Vietnam War. It’s
important that we keep clear sight of the fact that, despite what the
now-hypocritical mainstream press are implying about Julian Assange and
the ‘sensitive’ information he has published, he has done absolutely
nothing wrong, and his and anyone else’s right to publish any material
that has been given to them needs to be preserved.
The Takeaway
We did not come into this world at this
important moment in history to sit on the sidelines while our
fundamental rights and freedoms hang in the balance. Even though I
personally had a bit of trepidation that writing this article in the
transparent fashion I did is a bit risky, I feel it is my small way of
standing up for the freedom of speech and information. As Benjamin
Franklin said, ‘Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a
little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.’
