Sigurdur Ingi Thordarson, a former Wikileaks volunteer, has admitted he had given the FBI false testimony making false accusations against Julian Assange.

The article shows how the US indictment against Assange repeats some of Thordarson's accusations.

He initially offered his fabrications to the FBI to try to get out of possible charges for embezzling money from Wikileaks. In 2019,the FBI gave him immunity from prosecution on other charges in exchange for this testimony against Assange.

The article reconciles the US assertion that the push to indict Assange started only under the bully, with the evidence that the efforts to indict Assange started while Obama was president.

Since you're not going to be compelled to attend, refuse!
