re: Edward Snowden -Julian Assange Could be Next Suicide in Jail
Witness Says Julian Assanges' Leaked Documents About War Crimes Didn't Put Lives at Risk
ABC News •21 Sep 2020
In a London criminal court, the famed whistleblower who leaked the Pentagon Papers in 1971 has said Julian Assange's Wikileaks disclosures about war crimes was of equal significance.
Daniel Ellsberg also said accusations by the US Government that Mr Assange had put lives at risk by publishing the names of US informants had not been borne out by the evidence.
Australian-born Assange is fighting against being sent to the United States, where he's charged with conspiring to hack government computers and violating an espionage law over the release of confidential cables by WikiLeaks in 2010-2011.
