An exposé detailing the CIA’s war on WikiLeaks – a Trump administration plan to silence Julian Assange and the organisation – has been published. But like so much of the Assange story, it’s got nothing like the media coverage it deserves.

The translation of literature – from one language to another – is a tricky business. Translators become cultural mediators, balancing faithfulness to the original with the needs of a new audience. When translators fail, context can be sacrificed, and stereotypes can get reinforced.

Life in prison 👍
Wow the CIA was going to murder someone??? Much suprise! Very WOW, So shock.
A Galloway / Bannon interview would be interesting
CIA under president trump? Lol yea right
wow CIA director called him a hostile intelligence ok so what does that make the CIA then . and have some mix feeling on this cause from what i read and not saying its a 100 percent true but they say he gave informants names and the sources that helped the us military and i do feel thats wrong but far as reporting on war crimes well thats the right thing to do key word crimes . but last how he was acting when geting taken out the Ecuador embassy . bottom line he made his bed not saying he did wrong but like say i know some big time mobster and i start telling all he doing i know im puting my life on the line and i made my bed so would deal with it like a man . but i do think they will treat him unfair . and thing so many people do this today its all good when they not geting caught but once they get caught they go down like a cry baby i want to give him some advice keep your chin up Julian Assange uncle sam going bend you over and get a litttle hostile . but i hope they do not give you a long sentence . and i hope thats untrue about him giving names cuz thats wrong
When I found out that in the past Assange had ties to the Rothschilds, it slowed my momentum for his support. I still think they should release him.
Yes, I cannot shake the feeling that there is more to this than what we’re being told. Maybe he was a triple agent? I don’t know, but something is off.
El estado profundo ya ha asesinado a muchisimas buenas personas que denuncian sus depravaciones !! S.S.O.
It started way Before President Trump! Jeeze
Yahoo is a bowl of croc. This is fake news.
I’m stick. They have really done a Great job destroying the human mind. How else can we allow enenmies to destroy any one for delivering the messages “They are not coming, they are here,” running amuck on the human race, and we are stinging their países, ABOVE THE CREATOR OF ALL.
We (The People) owe Julian Assange his FREEDOM.
I’m begging God to protect Assange glory God
More lies. Lies lies lies. I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you if you believe this trash.
Oh please. The Trump administration was investigating Hillary Clinton, Trump and other Republicans were chanting “Lock her up”. Trump and his who Government were a bunch of lunatics. His own chief of staff called it “Crazy Town “.
I find it amazing that people think a man who was work with Russia and Russian agents to undermine, humiliate and put American people in danger with wikileaks hacking, should not be prosecuted. This is Espionage. Read the Espionage Act what he has done is prosecutible. It is not just one instance of publishing Classified information, it’s decades and 99% anti American and benefits Russia.
10 months ago forgotten already
His lawyers are cap pure cap
They have been drawn to the system
Because the U.S. does so many toxic dirty things to the world from neutral countries, enemies to even their allies. So E. Snowden, J. Assenge and others of conscience, they could not sit still.
To me, they are international heroes.
CIA walks like a terrorist intelligence organisations and talks like terrorist intelligence organisation. You want noe- fascism go no farther.
I think Journalism sold it’s soul to the Devil (Corporate interest) and is struggling to get it back.. but the Devil will never give you back your most sacred item…that is your credibility and integrity….it’s gone…
Qe downed Argentina presents plane thinking he was on board but we had a double agent with failed intelligence, we are working in how to increase our interest on these items and also Vladimir putin has cancer wha a rough 4 years left for him
We’ve been posing pains water so slightly that his security didn’t realize his urine 2as slightly arsenic but 5hat added uo t.taking one away away inducing radiation
EXCELLENT REPORT
Why would Trump administration want to kidnap Julian Assange?🤔 interesting don’t you think? Maybe it’s not Trump, it’s Pompeo the one who’s EX CIA who was spying in the embassy in UK spying on who’s going in and out, especially American people. Pompeo as former CIA director,have something to hide and he’s the one with Bolton desperate to have Julian Assange extradited to AMERICA. Pompeo threatened Australia,if you are friends with China,we will cut ties with Australia. I have heard him saying that. I think Pompeo was the backstabbing on Trump administration.
This sounds like a political hit piece against trump…
If they extradited Julian Assange in America,they will kill him and say he killed himself just like they did to that children trafficking the rich guy that all famous people and politicians went on he’s island.
CIA, creatures of terrorists, enemy of the people, aftermath of Nazi’s.

Free Assange or Hate the British forever!
He was doing the public a service, unlike most politicians.
“RuisSiaN PrOPaGAndA”
*meanwhile the US media not even talking about the biggest breach of security in the united states. only thing in media is the pentagon saying ‘Julian Assange bad’ *
highest reward for journalism is getting into the sights of the cia assange is wrongly imprisoned due to the simple fact that he merely published the truth i e us army atrocities where unarmed persons where fired upon from a helicopter ! amongst other atrocities i e abu ghreib. he is to be released from prison before xmas or within a reasonable time and an acquittal by biden would be necessary so that this now aging individual is finally freed. his health has also been suffering see book by mr melzer who pronounced his present circumstance as torture its bizarre
Julian Assange a hero and a martyr at the same time.
There is ONE greater than ALL! YHWH grant unto Julian Assange a MIRACLE of FREEDOM! ABBA FATHER we ask in LOVE and humility for this TORTURED man WRONGFULLY accused.
The full Hebrew mantra is Kodoish, Kodoish, Kodoish, Adonai Tsebayoth. Its meaning is Holy, Holy, Holy Lord God of Hosts.
Hebrew mantra for Julian Assange >
I Don’t feel sorry about what happened to those politicians during the January insurrection. if its any other Country its a human rights violation but if its America then its an unfortunate situation. Free Assange
This all happened during the Obama watch, funny how it’s all related to Trump who inherited the problem.
Why is Michael Isikoff being interviewed for this? He was so incredibly wrong during Russiagate. Do you think he’s the best person to interview for this?
“hostile intelligence service” …… That’s a nice phrase to use, to make freedom of the press be outlawed
In the United States, just planning to murder someone is illegal.
So, um, where’s those D.A.s to prosecute someone at the CIA?
Conspicuously absent. Which is why justice and the law is one sided and a farce. They only prosecute who they chose to, regardless of if the law was broken. It also depends… by who.
The US, as badly autocrat as Russia.
Elections are just for show, you get to chose from preselected thugs and billionaires…
Assange just made CIA accountable, CIA is ruthless agency
Journalism is dead
mafia does not like that citizens come to know what truth is.. mafia in the government, in the army and in the police. beware of mafia. they are in the process of destroying our world.

Deutsch: Friede sei auf der Erde, und unter allen Geschöpfen!
العربية: السلام على الارض وبين جميع المخلوقات!
There is something more to this. I know he’s lauded as a freedom fighter, but I don’t think we’re getting the full story.
US traded him for debt owed to the British
Wehate our corrupt CIA! They are just like the KGB, WAFFEN SS and several other hated, evil and corrupt agencies! Please prove us wrong…!
Merkel and her family should be protected, for their very safety, when Germany sees the true impact as to how she betrayed them! 🙏

Trump really? 🖕
Oh cmon Trumps fault!?? Again lol
No lo asesinaron…solo lo están matando lentamente 😱😱😡😡
War crime is not secret information.
one year later and Assange still sits in Prison. If he dies in there, the freedom of everyone dies with him.
And US is a champion of free speech., human rights 😅
Every one of the world so called G7 to G20 do just that every time unfortunately because none of those killed aren’t as famous as Assange.
Pompeo is a world terrorist
Trump I love Wikileaks. Then he employs agent Mike Pompeo to talk a hole in his head. Pompeo even wanting to assassinate Assange. Pompeo resists releasing jfk files as well.
For a person to challenge a powerful government and survive, is deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize and to set a new precedent for Laws to ensure Freedom of the Press.
Finde, ASSAGE ist ein Perfekter Name und das ganze Drama ein perfektes Schauspiel. ASSAGE hat mich sehr gut Unterhalten, toller V-Mann Darsteller. Tolle Filme und Serien. Toll wie es Trump übernommen hat. Danke für die Show 😚💖💓❤️💘❣️
It is obvious that America have duped the ignorant world ou there..on believing..that we got..democracy..freedom..justice..equality???We are the most racist country t y on earth..the most brutal criminal corrupt police force..most deceiving..on war crimes..and crimes against humanity..friendly with the most corrupt leaders and regimes in the world …in cahoots with them..leaching..looting..bleeding..exploiting..supressing..jailing..even torturing and killing their own people???JULIAN ASSANGE. BEING IMPRISONED FOR MANY YEARS FOR TELLING THE TRUTH TO THE WORLD ABOUT OUR WAR CRIMES..IT ONLY SHOWS THAT AMERICA DOESN’T BELIEVE IN ANYTHING…ONLY ITS OWN SUPREMACY AND WORLD RULING!!!
Ironic because America is currently appealing for their journalist to be freed from Russia for exposing war crimes. Now they proceed to do the very same to another journalist
Assange will ot suicide the CIA will assainatd him and make it appear that he suicided.
its good you cover this story on Julian..but fukn do something about it ALJAZEERA ENGLISH, you need to throw it everyone’s face consonantly, so sick of usa
President Trump would not want Julian Assange hurt he has fought the CIA more than anybody in the world this journalist is dumber than a bag of hammers this news is more fake than cnn 😂😂😂😂
This journalist is the biggest liar the clintons had Seth Rich murdered for leaking the emails to Julian Assange Trump said he will be safer in jail in Europe once he is out Trump knows the clintons are gonna have him murdered
FAKE NEWS !!!!!!!
Western media is owned by US and their evil millitary. There will never be truth
Yahoo “News”? Haha
Biden was too busy saving the economy when he was supposed to be in Australia discussing Assange’s freedom.
Мы любим его❤❤❤❤❤❤
Kidnap or Kill. DAM
Thought omnission amust. BSUpper touch
Yes, C.I.A. isn’t the smartest nor the goodest ones in the sack. These organisations were meant to keep peace and fight against terrorism, not help them.
Julian Assange is one of the few real heroes having the guts to deliver to the public trough Wikileaks the crimes of many high profile people done against many !! US is very good at killing people. It is USA a Democracy.? Australian government is a US puppet and do nothing to free Julian Assange let him to be devoured, hunted, even killed by Americans. So sad……
Free the man
Free Assange and let him come home ❤
Teraz viem komu buchnem po hlave z flaškou bez motivujuce politicke
Yahoo is pronounced Yaw-hoo NOT Yeah-hoo.
Not only under Trump….
Free Julian
CIA criminalising the innocent while they declare the guilty innocent, how weird 😭
As for Trump I’ve let him know that I would back him if he frees Julian 🙏
❤
LETS ADDRESS the innocent people locked up when they did not commit crimes or misconduct .
Those who didn’t release confidentiality safety of gov or PRIVACY OF information. Protecting each other . When you don’t do this, your experience with abuse is next.
The the truth is we will not know what really happened , stick with what your able to actually help change we all want civility. Protection. Our rights preserved .
The net is not so free
FREE JULIAN 💪🏿💪🏿💯🖤
The actual enemies of the United States are already in this country and that is not Julian Assange. DOJ, FBI, CIA, NSA. Susan Rice, Victoria Nuland, Eric holder, Loretta Lynch, John Podesta, James Clapper, John Brennan, Jake Sullivan, Antony Blinken, Valerie Jarret, James Comey, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Gerry Nadler, Biden family, and so many others could be making better choices and stop trying to throw the United States down the drain.
Here we are 2023 and Julian Assange is old news. Hillary was giving the secrets away every time she used her blackberries. Secrets were being traded and bribed through Jeffrey Epstein. Biden and family traded them like baseball cards to the highest bidder. Roll the dice if you think you can find one department that functions normally in the Biden Administration.
I started to watch this video because I am interested in any information regarding Julian Assange. But right away it seemed to be trying to implicate something that sounds like a false narrative. So I changed my mind I’m going to watch it.
Free Julian Assange Now! Make no mistake, what they are doing to Assange, they can and will do to any of us. Journalism is not a crime, its essential to any functioning democracy.
Dont blame trump, obama wants Julian dead get ot right cnn
