Julian Assange: The Intelligence Sector pushed for a reinterpretation of the US Constitution.
We angered one of the constituent powers of the United States, the intelligence sector, the security state the secrecy state. It was powerful enough to push for a reinterpretation of the US Constitution. The US First Amendment seems pretty black and white to me It's very short. It says that Congress shall make no law, restricting speech or the press.
"Looking at the US first amendment to its constitution, that no publisher had ever been prosecuted for publishing, classified information from the United States, either domestically or internationally…
I expected some kind of harassment legal process. I was prepared to fight for that. I believe the value of these publications was such, that it is okay to have that fight. And that we would prevail because we had understood, what was legally possible…
My naivete was believing in the law. When push comes to shove, laws are just pieces of paper, and they can be reinterpreted for political expediency. They are the rules made by the ruling class more broadly and if those rules don't suit what it wants to do, it reinterprets them, or hopefully changes them, which is clearer in the case of the United States, we angered one of the constituent powers of the United States, the intelligence sector, the security state the secrecy state. It was powerful enough to push for a reinterpretation of the US Constitution. The US First Amendment seems pretty black and white to me It's very short.
