Julian Assange: The poster child for what is WRONG with Europe!
Julian Assange should be the poster child for what is wrong with Europe. I have been writing about this for years - the slavish and subservient relationship Europe has with America. Whatever obsessions and demands the Americans have - European values, human rights. national and European interests, and basic common sense - get thrown out the window to "please America."The really needs to come to an end - and this Author has vowed, one way or the other - to work to liberate Europe from this bondage!

OSCE critical of American police arrests of journalists
The OSCE has condemned that arrests of Russia Today journalists in the US state of Georgia, while they were covering a protest outside the Fort Benning army base.That's nice of the OSCE, but human rights violations of this sort of political nature by American police is growing - in fact - I would contend that arresting protesters and journalists is now standard American police practice that is in bad need of rebuke by international institutiions, like the OSCE.

The EU and the US in confronting Iran
When the European Union appears to line its policy up with the United States, we should take notice and examine the policy for yet another instance of "Please America First."This article weighs the Security Council Resolution 1929 aimed at Iran- and the further steps taken by the US and the EU's "package." The "package" of EU sanctions is found wanting from the standpoint of European values, especially in light of the past, deadly sanctions against Iraq in the 1990s. More Please America First from Lady Ashton? Is the EU once again following the US with regard to Iran?

Roman Polanski FREE ! Another Oh Yeah Moment!
Roman Polanski is FREE! Yep - the Swiss, for all their recent idiotic Islamophobia, have issued what appears to be a rebuke of American injustice system. The legally fishy case was seen through by the Swiss, along with questionable documents and the time already served by Polanski - meant freedom.

How the SWIFT Agreement could be used against human rights activists
With the SWIFT Agreement passed by MEPs and the US Supreme Court ruling could now see human rights activists investigated by the European Union and prosecuted by the US for "aiding terrorism" - Will the European Union now find itself aiding the US in the prosecution of human rights activists? The potential embarrassment this Agreement could pose to the European Union could even undermine its foreign policy and place on the world stage.

ECtHR shuts down UK extradition to US – questions conditions in US Supermax Prisons! OH YEAH!
This Author's long-awaited day when the cruelty and inhumanity of America's prisons and jails comes under much needed international and European scrutiny has arrived! The ECtHR has put a stop on the extradition of four "terror suspects" until the question into their conditions of confinement in the ADX Florence "supermax" prison is examined. The question is if America's Eighth Amendment and the current case law with it meet the same conditions as Article 3 of the European Convention of Human Rights. It is my view that American law falls far short of the higher European standards with emphasis on human rights and human dignity. It is also time to tear down the supermaxes!Well - OHHHH YEAH!
