11:58Now PlayingJulian Assange, journalist and publisher, lies stricken this weekend in a Belmarsh Prison cell. It has been revealed that he has suffered a stroke on top of all the psychological and physical health attrition that has occurred over the 11 years of his incarceration. First in the Ecuadorian embassy and the last two years in a maximum-security prison usually reserved for mass murderers and terrorists.
Julian Assange has actually been convicted of nothing, but he is being kept in conditions that are attracting the attention of human rights organizations all over the world. The British and American states are subjecting themselves to quite severe collateral damage to their reputation by this relentless pursuit of this journalist.
We invited former MI5 officer Annie Machon aboard the Sputnik to explore what it is that makes them conclude the damage and detriment to their reputation is worth it.
