on june 28 1971 daniel ellsberg was arrested for his role in stealing the pentagon papers a collection of classified documents that revealed the us government had been systematically lying to the american people about the vietnam war as for why the new york times had a right to publish the pentagon papers justice hugo black composed one of the most famous paragraphs in supreme court case history: quotonly a free and unrestrained press can effectively expose deception in government and paramount among the responsibilities of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people and sending them off to distant lands to die of foreign fevers and foreign shot and shellquot the wikileaks founder says the charges are baseless and if extradited he believes he will not face a fair trialassange posed some interesting questions: quotwhy is it that i am subject a non-profit free-speech activist to a us360000 bail why is it that i am kept under electronic house arrest when i have not even been charged in any countryquotand he is not the only one asking those questions particularly as the british government has a history of granting asylum to some fairly controversial characters including russian business tycoon boris berezovsky who has blood of many on his hands berezovsky later said he had been trying to overthrow the russian government using the uk as his basequotit shows here the hypocrisy of the british court berezovsky has quite clearly been involved in the mafia over the years all sorts of very serious offences which you may actually quite literally equate with terrorism and yet he is not being extraditedquot says investigative journalist tony gosling quotand yet we see here what appears to be anyway a trumped-up charge of rape which hasn039t actually even come to charges in sweden assange appears anyway being taken over to sweden and there039s going to be an appeal so we will see but there certainly does appear to show blatant political interference into the court system here in britain and total hypocrisy from the british justice systemquotaround 40 people wanted by russian law enforcement agencies are resident in the uk and the list of the rich and powerful wanted by interpol is even longerthe uk is even harboring suspected terrorists in 2003 alleged chechen terrorist ahmed zakayev was granted political asylum the same year asylum was granted to russian tycoon boris berezovsky a case that took two years and severely damaged russia039s relationship with the uk quota basic tradition relating to asylum is that anybody can come here provided they are allowed provided they have got lots of money -- we will let them in because we want them in with their moneyquot cana-uk director william j spring stated plainly quotand therefore it is not particularly that russian magnates and oligarchs are welcome here arab sheikhs who may have a dubious criminal record as it were of torture -- yet they are allowed to swirl around london and no problem whatsoeverquotrecently the immigration minister admitted 139 suspected war criminals have been given the right to settle in britain permanently they are thought to include former henchmen of saddam hussein an afghan official who tortured prisoners and rwandan genocide perpetratorssince the second world war the uk has seen only two successful convictions for war crimes while julian assange looks set to be cast from the safe harbor of the uk into choppier waters it is unlikely he will sink from view just yet assange may not have billions in the bank to buy himself out of trouble like many real criminals do it in uk so he will just have to hope his friends in high places have influenceassange039s defense team has vowed to now take his case to the highest courts in the land in the hope of preventing his extradition meanwhile convicted criminals like boris berezovksy and those with outstanding international arrest warrants like akhmed zakayev remain at large in the uk under the protection of the stateassange039s defense team has vowed now to take his case to the highest courts in the land in the hope of preventing his extradition meanwhile some of the world039s nastiest people -- suspected torturers terrorists and war criminals -- enjoying their fancy life in the uk
