Reading through this, I couldn't help thinking of a line from Hogan's Heroes: "I will see to it that you receive a fair trial, after which you will be shot."

At this point I'm honestly thinking the EU should just stop negotiating with them and let them go. We don't want barbarians that torture political prisoners, let them be friends with Russia and China instead.

Sweden was complicit in trying to get Assange into custody and many other EU countries such as Germany have participated in the CIA's Extraordinary rendition program[0]. Don't think EU members are saints.

The EU has much bigger problems of its own than those seen in the UK. E.g. see Poland.

It looks like that is happening anyway. Boris wanted to change the signed brexit deal and the EU said no.

The EU didn't have to say no; the deal was signed, a contract was in place, and if they now break said contract they're in deep legal shit.

Oh, if you want to see kangaroo court, just wait until he’s extradited. He’s about to have one hell of a show trial in Virginia while they torture him to death.

The whole thing is so sad.

Assuming he survives until the trial, that is.

There is a distinct possibility that he will 'Jeffrey Epstein' while in custody and he's very well aware of that.

Or he will kill himself, the past few days of testimony have made it clear he sees suicide as a better option than US prison.
