i think the information. we speak. this comes with the prime. loan isn't being charitable he's made while he was in the ecuadorian embassy for the 8 years 7 or 8 in. a long time he's been in prison for basically and that now he's being fair many months in the present. there are a lot of people that want him in prison a lot of the very powerful this department is conducting a thorough aggressive investigation to determine how this leak occurred to identify the person or persons responsible. persons. and i think that's what he's facing trying to much of. it will. be any reason to suggest that he's not he's trying to expose the

crimes that. i don't think you can really understand julian assange. or wiki leaks without seeing an aspect of his life that formed him and that was absolutely here in melbourne and it formed him not only in terms of his ideas. his personality his expertise but also his conceptual thinking about forming software projects including wiki leaks. so melbourne in the late eighty's and early ninety's became the center of the a strain underground which included cars and experimenters and also there's not just in the sense of the. people who broke into things illegally but also people

who just experimented with. but. it didn't take long for australia's hacking community to embrace the young julia song those teenagers they spent most of their time online but did occasionally venture out and when they did they'd meet in this square in central melbourne. this is the historic that's right town hall and it was the site along with some other historic town halls in melbourne. it's. still a massage and other members of that technology community were here in their late teens and early twenty's stopping for computer bits and exchanging ideas and information about how to experiment with hardware and software. versus. men and women. on the computer.

memory understanding. i didn't. just write that he would pay for a short while. one of the world's most. it's very interesting the hacker mentality from this time period they wanted the thrill of getting into the system that was ted new. and the more procedures the in the institution the more thrill they got so if they could break into now such. things were the smartest people stay with people who had put man on the moon really if you could break into their systems then you could prove to yourself. if you're

a 17 year old boy you 2 are very smart. the u.s. space agency nasa is one of the victims of the melbourne computer hacking syndicate american investigators including the f.b.i. contacted a strange you know thorough g.'s with the suspicions. of the 16th 1989 nasa was attacked by what was known as the way virus that caused a space shuttle launch in florida to be postponed and was traced to australian hackers in melbourne the way was one of the 1st ever worms that had been written and it was certainly the 1st politically motivated wireman that carried a political message that message was a quote from the midnight oil song and that quote was you talk of times of peace for all and then prepare for war. this thing that was the way. it emerged from a sort of deep dark forest you got

a glimpse of it and then disappeared again and the authors have never been found although some see this might be one of jewel in a songes dealings. people have lots of different views on these things. julian was very lucky growing up in that although he grew up in a fairly poor family canonically it was very rich intellectually. julien's father is a very clever and creative person and quite sensitive i think he's been enormously important to julius development as a young adult. as a young man joey and was. a go are actually. nick and i were wizard because they were. they. to come up with

a new approach to things or a new way of looking at things. what a number of truckers have said to me is that. they get a different perspective on the worlds from the systems they've been in and that's because they are able to see the actual information these are. directly contradicting what an organization may say publicly or someone a politician may say publicly they understand that the public is being told something that is just not just a little lie often it's a very big lie that helped maybe develop enjoins mind. be super importance of media organizations being able to port accurately on information. and during result my place and we were having a cup of tea to your was. a natural 2006 or something like that required to go

nearby and julian said. i'd like to stop and we can do. this week he would concern so certainly. and we reduce 3 toll as an anonymous for people who want to really information and have that information or. did you try to warn him about anything at that time. which is a young man on the cusp of life who don't care for warnings very well how can i hope. i've always taken nature's aphorism. to hard leave diantre. leave die interest don't creep around place being frightened of shadows. do what you have to do them 1st.

consequentialism best you can. that's me my. god oh my. goodness. the. heart want to. hear that we have no personnel. so 3. to 5 1st i 1st heard about with nixon you know aside. from the helicopter footage. in iraq the famous for shoots where we saw. the helicopter shoot people on the ground but all of. them on.

the helicopter shot up some civilians and in the process shown to reuters journalists to local forces jobs and they also shot up some children in a car. for 2 minor. am. now i don't want to go around the. american military personnel misidentified civilians as rebels. from over and it looked as though one of the men had a gun. but it was just a reuters camera man holding a little. did they saw the collateral but mortar b.t.o. a city as we know for gets. just forget because i escaped it was what the 1st time

is i was screaming loud at my own face these. soldiers are. dissed emotional detachment as they were playing video games and with the lives of people in such a cool way. here is actual shocking video footage fact irrefutable evidence of what happened and what has been described to me by one retired military person actually here in australia as undoubtedly a war crime i wanted. to be off to the shooting of july 13th 2007 u.s. military commanders justified the attack claiming that its troops had been in battle with hostile forces. approaching and picking up the

body of. the 2 children well. they were in a van when their father approached the scene of the shooting to help to mr horn we have individual go on. one. anonymous shoot. during. a fire. in order. that was really fascinating for me was when i saw an interview with an american soldier who was there on that spot after they. killed them and shot them then it was the young. army officer who went to the van and discovered that there were 2 children and that will wounded he said the little girl. couldn't blink because her eyes were full of

glass and he tried to turn the class from our eyes when he spoke to his supervisor and wanted to take her to a decent hospital he was told wash out your vagina. for the 1st time we understood. the civilian casualties the innocent people who were killed in both afghanistan and iraq and this was all kept from the public. joyous on show real bravery in being willing to publish frankly and fearlessly that video and i think that there are people within the us military who have never forgiven him for it. that helicopter attack resulted in 12 deaths 2 children what one did no one from the american military has ever been held

accountable. the world is driven by shaped by. the dares thinks. we dare to ask. capitalism in the united states abandon the united states the leading capitalists in this country are now global capitalism. that leaves them their middle class

without jobs without a future it's a disaster covered over with endless eater but the reality is a disaster and it was good from work here you would see other people emerge trying to make a political career by fucking because they're. a dark industry comes to life in los angeles every night. dozens of women sells their bodies on the streets many of them under age. los angeles police reveal a taste of their daily challenge no if you're going to exploit a child here in los angeles there are going to come as you see officers going undercover as 6 workers and customers to fight the 6 trade.

2 months ago most of the never read the site says. here it is original and it should ring founder julian assange the only analyst on credible revelation i'm the one using one site she and soon as you move on with he's going to do this after collateral mother julian assange revealed his identity and was known i mean it was front page news all over the world at that point. only to julian assange has become a hold global topic but he'd found a way to publish classified information and made it available to anyone who wanted to share someone else's secrets the idea of developing an anonymous digital dropbox and applying it to a media organization that is wiki leaks that was the 1st people hadn't really done that before that was that was julian assange which. enabled the

whistleblower who were at low cost with just the right couldn't. use of the right tools to anonymously. blow the whistle by transmitting like large amounts of data. the day we release over 287. documenting the reality of an international mass surveillance industry. who here has an eye for. movie and has a black berry. he uses g.-mail. well you're all screwed. what is this place then where were all those files actually kept. in the cloud i don't know it's somewhere.

julian. magically brought together. computers digitalize ration and information and put before the public. when someone called you know songs knocked on the door from my own club i was quite pleased to see him i was quite keen that we would have somebody who was making the news. my name's phone smith i'm a journalist. but more i run something called the front line from which i founded which is a press club and. it all happened in this room i mean julian literally turned up and knocked on the door and literally on the announce he knocks on the door 2 days before that press conference saying i want a press conference on julian assange quite literally and so we arrange the press conference for him and it was on a monday morning he was standing here. he was up here and we had a podium we have that podium and we had it here and he was standing here and it's

from this position he raised up the guardian front page. and you know that's when the whole thing started so this is the guardian from this morning 40. 40 pages about this topic. also karzai in the spiegel 70 pages. just a couple of months after the video of the baghdad helicopter attack against civilians was published yet more revelations appeared this time it was the afghanistan and iraq dossier is. the afghanistan and iraq does the us classified pentagon files only u.s. and allied military activity in afghanistan and iraq from 2004 to 2009. these were logs that were written by members of the military who might be out at

the front door but trolling an area. and might be things seen or thing they experienced on their shift or patrol so it was almost a sort of. a very detailed war diary. by the americans and the british but it didn't occur to me that it could be so informative. because it was a huge data sets 400000 plus 5 reports field reports by the u.s. army this is the most accurate description all told it is even being released into the story we have counted now 120000 sunni triangle teams in the war is nearly no street corner in baghdad didn't have a body fell into being killed 3 volumes of one form or another. but what we found out from iraq and afghanistan dossier is the u.s.

and its allies allegedly under reported civilian casualties prisoners of war was subjected to violent acts of torture of u.s. military personnel who were reportedly involved in child prostitution. and you have published this publishing secret and the government starts losing control of the narrative that had a narrative in iraq and. no civilian did. and then they lost control of that narrative because we found out the truth. that's the power of we hear a the battlefield consequences of the release of these documents are potentially severe and dangerous for our troops our allies and the afghan partners and may well damage our relationships and reputation in that key part of the world and one of the main criticisms that's being leveled at you is that you have published the village is that the names and some cases the g.p.s.

coordinates of people afghans. cooperated with the u.s. military and a u.s. official has called it a potential hit list for the taliban what's your response to that there was a peer's the mostly b m e a paedophile ring where we're looking at the issue seriously to see whether that is true and approach the white house to austin for assistance in reviewing material before we published the white house in order to accept that request they always say oh they have blood on their hands and they get people in danger but i think if anyone would have been killed because they would have dragged the person in front of the camera all proved it or taken it against them soledad i think it's just a blatant lie is it possible that the 1st tranche of dollars have from the afghan war logs could have been better redacted yes quite probably they could have been better protected had anyone ever done this before no there was no road back up

i mean telling the soldier wiki leaks they were bushwhacking through thick forests to try and figure out how to do this. the afghanistan and iraq don't see just what the biggest leak they have a plan shown along its own war crimes allegedly perpetrated by the us can be generalized. no one from america's military has ever been held accountable. and. a little bit over 10 years ago i was contacted by. a person. who i didn't know at that point environmental. wanted to meet with me and they met a. person who spoke with a very strong australian accent and he told me that they had a problem program of they wanted to do a project. when we met. my in the. feeling

was that this was. completely outlandish but there was nothing to it so we parted way but we kept contact and a little bit later. came the publications of the collateral murder video where you can see helicopter gun down that's a u.s. helicopter in iraq gunning down reuters journalists on an open street and soon i realized that he was serious about isn't ever. julian assange invited yohannes to work with him on a new collection of classified documents that had fallen into we can expand. this time correspondence from the united states diplomatic service. to diplomatic cables . that we can leaks published a little bit later they were a set of internal briefings if you put it this way or analysis. that all of the american diplomats. wrote and delivered back to the

state department. leaked u.s. diplomatic cables published on november 28th 2010 it contains u.s. diplomatic correspondents from $966.00 to 2010 and includes 100000 documents marked confidential and $15000.00 marked secret. you have to understand the scale of all this release of information so if we took these cables and we printed them out into and they would go betweens in petersburg and moscow it is that much material i can give you. a simple example of what was interesting in those cables in regard to sweden because i worked with the materials that were related in these documents we could see here and that's which politicians of them come to the u.s. ambassador and they ask for services for the services they would ask for would be

really. we have a problem with the swedish public opinion they would say and the swedish public opinion doesn't like the war in afghanistan and they don't want us to participate in the war in afghanistan could you please help us there by inviting in some afghani women here to sweden and we'll put them on the swedish t.v. so they can talk about the good things that we're doing there some of them to europe we found out that. swedish politicians and swedes are sure as public servants there is nothing the way the would be democracy is supposed to function and they're in that together with them with you this diplomats contrary to the interests of the swedish people one of the hopeful things that i've discovered . is they took nearly every role that is thought of. as being a result of. media on what does that mean. that means basically

populations don't like. and populations have to be fooled into. the. community as an enemy combatant really should be closed down permanently and decisively designed to reduce any broken every little unit big deal it was like a hotel the things that. are going on in the service it's not that it's open up in the middle or a good elysia. julian was at his height of popularity when sweden. that he attracted. i'm most ladies. it's understandable that he would be attractive to young men and he's. a young man and she said his mission is very high and that nobody.

noble landis's. so that made him even more attractive. i am above. you cannot be vulgar with me yet you want. problem drugs don't always come from unscrupulous dealers but from pharmacies to in every state in the united states we see me very sharp increase in the number of

people seeking treatment for addiction to prescription opioids oids invited america under the banner of medicine he persisted with the pain but instead of trying to wean him off though she just goes after dose after dose after dose and really became his drug dealer so who's to blame patients doctors manufacturers all the governments. was no team no crowd. no shots. back should be. going to well its tracks.

no. you're. legal to the government by a small group. rather than revolution reason. small group the. when you have a tiny group of people who have all the power you have to have some means to make sure the rest of us don't get together and take it back. to lease or sacrifice some . places that capitalism exploited and destroyed for profit and left behind misery poverty environmental devastation and so you see things like voter suppression building more prisons you see. all sorts of undemocratic practices. in the world for this world.

the us sees its biggest but. we speak to a reporter who got caught up in. saying i'm being peaceful. show that i started filming him. directly. in the stories that shaped the week for u.k.'s opposition labor party pushes for. the full report to russian influence we. don't believe. opposing them.
