It is giving the U.S. government a chance to make assurances, and thus lie, that they will then ignore once Assange is on U.S. soil. The U.S. government is notorious for such things, and violating treaties. Thus, the whole decision is ridiculous. It is also one of the British court's tactics to cover their back sides and disingenuously make it look like "they did everything they could could to protect the defendant's rights". That's why they're letting Assange have so many appeals; that is, if they rule against the U.S. government's assurances and allow Assange to appeal further, which is unlikely.
It is all posturing and nothing but "show hearings" (versus "show trials"---he's not on trial in the U.K. and has been held for years in PRE-TRIAL proceedings, so I won't call it a show trial). Holding someone in pretrial punishments for so long without a trial is already a violation of U.S. law(s) [denial of a speedy trial in violation of the Sixth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights], and though I realize that right now Assange is under U.K. jurisdiction and law(s), the U.K. judicial system must have similar constitutional and/or other legal requirement(s) for speedy trials, which have been violated in Assange's case.
The whole thing is modern-day insanity on steroids, and a sign of the times that we have entered into the time of totalitarian government, and nothing but show hearings and trials like in days of old, in all of the Western governments. Thus, liberty, freedom, rights, and True Justice are going the way of the dodo bird, for the sake of global government and the system of unelected "rules-based international 'order'". In times like these, Assange can't get any True Justice, or any fair hearings or trial(s). The deck is completely stacked against him. Biden must dismiss the case, but he very likely won't do so.
"Espionage" for doing the job of journalism, and being a check and balance on government and corporations like journalists are supposed to be, is absolutely absurd, but under a totalitarian system like we are increasingly under now, it is considered "justice". In the U.S. in particular, and probably in the other Western countries as well, the definition of the word "justice" has long been the exact opposite of True Justice, but now justice is being even more turned on its head, and made completely upside-down and backwards, and the antithesis of True Justice. In such neo-Nazi courts Assange doesn't stand a chance.
The U.S. Espionage Act should have long ago been rewritten to prevent just this type of malicious prosecution for nothing but the non-violent exercise of First Amendment free speech rights, and the rights and exercise of journalism; or, barring that, it should have been repealed long ago. Just law is not supposed to be used as cudgel, but is supposed to be as fair as possible, and completely unbiased and unprejudiced, but that is not what we have in the West today. Instead, we increasingly have a system of systematized railroading, extortion of guilty pleas, and unjust trials. Assange shouldn't have to plead guilty to ANYTHING!
The best thing that could happen, imo, is that the illegitimate Biden Admin drop the charges, as Assange's lawyers stated. Assange should be a free man, and be able to testify against the US for the murder of Seth Rich, and who was really responsible for the DNC email hacks. It was not Russia.
I am so broke. I would LOVE to support you! I buy a $1 lottery ticket every week, and I know it's stupid, but I hope to win, and if/when I do, I will send a BIG FAT CHECK.
What is being done to Julian Assange (amongst all the rest of the Incredible Fuckery of the Globby Fascist Useless Cheater Nasties on Humanity) is nothing but EVIL. GO GET 'EM!!!!!!
How come he can use the First Ammendment to plead innocent, but we, the citizens that live here in the USA, are having our First Ammendment rights stripped from us? I don't agree on those grounds.
Free speech in a Totalitarian system is forbidden. We are rapidly becoming un-free! Just as a *single* example, look how legal home owners are being treated when squatters take up residence in that home owners house - as the criminal. Insanity is when you have no legal rights against true crimes. But in the famous words of the Satanist, Klaus Schwab “You will own nothing and like it.”
Yeah, I used to comment on Reader Supported News (RSN) [yes, I know, a "liberal" rag, but I was supporting what they had right, and standing up against what they had wrong (I'm a constitutionalist, and not "liberal", "centrist" or "conservative")], and there was a "Bandit" there who was a troll that attacked people and sought to cause turmoil in the comments section, etc. (and also try to get the RSN staff to become more draconian in their censorship, which was already bad "way back then"?). So, obviously, I don't know if "this 'Bandit'" is the same one, but he or she does seem like a naysayer to say the least, and I hope they aren't the same person, or that that person has grown out of being a troll, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.
I've had a friend, called "Bandit," who has long visited my page, a woman, a Canadian, and has NOT been anything like a troll... for a long time.
I noticed just maybe a week ago, this person suddenly became very dark, seemed really different. I suspect this person IS a troll. If you read much of my postings, you'll see why I find it very possible that someone else is posing as "Bandit" and is NOT doing a very good job of impersonation, if that's what they're thinking they're doing.
Anyway, cheers, and thanks for the comment, I wonder what happened to my friend!
If something I ever said lead you to believe I lived in Canada, I'm really sorry. I always wondered why you'd say that you'd come up to see me, when my state is South of yours and most of the country East. I just thought you thought I lived in a different state.
I've never even heard of this RSN. I don't believe in censorship, but I will argue with you. I have been called a troll once, because I disagreed with some dude.
I do not now, nor have I ever lived in Canada. I've been to Canada about 4 times in my life. It was pretty. I live, and have always lived in the Eastern Midwest, USA. I am the Bandit you know. (AFAIK)

EXCELLENT comment. Just EXCELLENT.
RFK, Jr. has stated he will exonerate Assange and Snowden and implement other sane policies against totalitarianism.
The best thing that could happen, imo, is that the illegitimate Biden Admin drop the charges, as Assange's lawyers stated. Assange should be a free man, and be able to testify against the US for the murder of Seth Rich, and who was really responsible for the DNC email hacks. It was not Russia.
Seems to me he's already done enough time, for something that should never have included him doing time at all.
I agree.
Oh, good. ;)

I thought you lived in Canada? Are you not the Bandit I know?

Or maybe, I'm just really depressed.

Do you want to talk to me on the phone?
Are you okay? I will give you my email and then delete it, if you want to be in more private contact.
E-mail. I don't want you to have to listen to me sobbing on the phone when you don't really know me.
I've never even heard of this RSN. I don't believe in censorship, but I will argue with you. I have been called a troll once, because I disagreed with some dude.

Ok.
"First Ammendment rights stripped from us?" -- 'cause the brainwashed citizens allowed for this...
No, that is blaming the victim. People may be cowardly, stupid, unconcerned, whatever... That doesn't make a genocidal attack on Humanity THEIR FAULT.

I wouldn't trust them as far as I could throw them
