Hi All

I hope you are all well. To confirm this morning we delivered Petition Notice 19 to the Prime Minister, Foreign Minister and all 226 Parliamentarians that make up the Australian Government. A copy and paste of the script.is at the foot of this message (under the dotted line ==).

I feel necessary to inform you all that our fight to free Julian Assange is under cyber attack.

My promotion of the Free Julian Assange Petition has been under cyber-attack particularly since Nov. 22, 2018. After the petition peaked at 1672 signatures in one day on the 22 Nov., my promotion of it has been in affect silenced. I have been placed in a position in part like Julian. Gagged off. Much of my promotion is immediately removed, I can see it, but everyone else can not. Giving me the illusion that I am Tweeting but in fact my Tweets are an illusion, that only I can see. How do I know this has been the situation? Because I have sat with others whilst they are on Twitter, I can see their Tweets, they can see their own Tweets as well, but my Tweets are only visible via my screen, they have been absent on all others. I believe this particular type of blocking is called "Shadow Blocking or Ghost Blocking" and to me indicates the level that those that are trying to stop the pathway to Julian Freedom will go to.

I have raised this issue with Twitter and for the time being the issue has been resolved, but with cautious optimism.

I believe the fact that I have been in affect gagged confirms that the petition is hitting the politically right buttons and "they" can not allow those buttons to be pressed any harder.

So now I come to you all. Because they can not sit and gag 20,000 people/signatories on Twitter.

I am asking you all, to in affect take this petition to the next level. I need your help to help free Julian Assange.

Those that have Twitter should take a copy of this link and Tweet it wherever it is relevant and also repost it on Facebook, but Twitter I feel is more effective. Petition Link: http://chng.it/yQpsHnGbJ5

Dear Prime Minister & Foreign Minister,

Let it be known that following this petition achieving 1672 signatures in one day on November 22, 2018, this petition’s promotion has been under constant cyber-attack to derail its success. However, this petition continues to grow because it is right, legal and is empowered by people that identify a clear breach of the Australian Government’s duty of care towards one of its Citizen/Journalists. A journalist who published facts exposing systemic government corruption and war crimes is now being tortured by way of extended and unrelenting solitary confinement and 6.5 years of Arbitrary Detention.

The people can no longer stand by and allow the Australian Government to complicitly permit by way of blatant inaction, the fundamental abuse of the most basic human rights of Mr Julian Assange.

It is now on the public record that the government of the USA had secretly conspired to extradite Julian Assange for simply performing the diligent duties of a fact publishing Journalist. Further to that, reports indicate that the Australian Government may have been aware of this in as far back as 2010.

We notify the Australian Government that we, (The Signatories), hold the Australian Government fully responsible for the safety of Julian Assange and the lawful return of his freedom. The Australian Government has had over 6.5 years to act on behalf of this Australian Citizen and the Australian Government has done nothing that the people can identify in the way of meaningful assistance.

Julian Assange is an Australian Citizen who has not been charged with any crime and yet has been "arbitrarily” detained for over 6 years and in addition is currently enduring over 248 days of torture in the form of continuous solitary confinement.  He has been deprived of sunlight, contact with family, contact with the outside world and proper healthcare. The United Nations Human Rights Office of the High Commissioner on Feb. 5, 2016 determined that Julian Assange's “Arbitrary Detention should be brought to an end and that Mr. Assange should be afforded the right to compensation”.

In a Democracy it is the legal and overwhelming demands of the people that the government is guided by. Recent polling indicates between 80% - 91% of Australians want the Australian Government to secure Julian Assange’s freedom by guaranteeing no USA Extradition on charges that would contradict the USA’s own Constitution’s 1st Amendment if exercised against a USA Citizen.

We the people demand the Australian Government end this public torture of an Australian Journalist & Free Julian Assange. We will not permit this Journalist and Free Press to be silenced or assassinated.

Yours Faithfully,

Phillip Adams
