I was astonished by the reaction of my colleague, when she told me “there are much more important issues than Julian Assange in our agenda” meaning that the LGBTQ “struggle” was more important than endorsing Assange — sad to mention here, she is professor of Ethics… Now considering this course of events in the post-Nazi Atlantic order that are slightly different than known in the public, things become clearer and nothing becomes astonishing.

Tear down the wall ! — Pink Floyd
For Roger Waters to pass the-adorno-test he must make a stronger call, that is a call to start a march (not a “parade”) to Belmarsh Jail for freeing Assange. Continue reading “Tear down the wall ! — Pink Floyd”
A risky reconnaissance operation into the British roge state territory — Engin Kurtay
(not that of the people of England)
The tricky thing here is that the discrepancy between the “idea” and the practical interpassivity* doesn’t originate from some illiteracy or lack of acknowledgment. As the common belief that Assange must be freed is right and just, the common uncertainty that this belief (that he must be freed) is common is also right and sound — the former is undisputably right as a matter of historical and universal justice (an ethical necessity) and the latter is also sound because it’s pretty likely that in a society there are often some (as Priti Patel and/or as the Betty-the-Queen) who may not believe so or who have normalized not acting in line with their own beliefs.

Onu almaya geldim! — Engin Kurtay
— Birleşik Krallık’a ziyaretinizin sebebi nedir?

Pasaport polisinin o andaki suratını izlemek benim için dünyanın en büyük keyfiydi. Continue reading “Onu almaya geldim! — Engin Kurtay”
I came to take him out! — Engin Kurtay
— What is the purpose of your visit to United Kingdom?
— I came to take him out!
— Who?
— Comrade Julian Assange
That moment of perplexity, seeing the face of the port police officer was my biggest pleasure. Continue reading “I came to take him out! — Engin Kurtay”
Priti Patel: conformism, opportunism, Machiavellianism — Engin Kurtay
One should really be endowed by an heroine lordly spirit for putting an ultimate wedge to the extradition of Assange,
This wedge could be put either by gathering a brave group of British people ready to fight and storm the Belmarsh Jail (which is located 18 km away from the center of London, where people could first gather in Trafalgar Square and start a march —but definitely not a parade— towards Belmarsh) to free Assange by also possibly completely turning down and burning the Belmarsh Jail (as it was previously done with Bastille, a little while ago, in Paris)… Or alternately, just by (refraining from) putting a signature by the politician in charge, that is, by Priti Patel.

The confirmed rogue state status of the UK — Engin Kurtay
nothing against you
The judges in the UK, dealing with the Assange Case,
We warned you:
You should stop Show Trial, you should free Julian Assange.
You did the wrong thing.
Your wrongdoing has three consequences:
The first one is a very good one: Thanks to you that Julian Assange’s monument will be erected even higher over your infamy.
The second one is bad for your country but good for the world: you confirmed the rogue state status of the UK.
The third one is bad for you: you confirmed that you are not “judges” but you are the tiny puppets of the transatlantic imperialist cooperation.
We wish you soon meeting your bandit buddies, Shaun Pinner and Aiden Aslin:
Stop the Show Trial, Free Assange!
TO THE JUDGES COMPOUNDING
THE “SUPREME” COURT OF THE UNITED KINGDOM
Jan Hus was killed on 6th of July 1415. Paradoxically, Jan Hus was the translator and a defender of an English theology professor: John Wycliffe. As a surprising fact of Historical dialectics, the 15th century Britain was more advanced than the Continent.
Jan Hus and similar heroic personages opened the way to modern philosophy, critical thinking, freedom of speech, to form the distinct political and legal norms of our contemporary civilization.
You, the Judges compounding the “Supreme” Court of the UK, you are supposed to be the products of this six-century-long philosophical and societal evolution.
You are not free to deny the legacy of this six hundred years. Your “judiciary independence” is the product of this legacy.
J’accuse! You did wrong.
But you will have a second chance to decide whether you are “Supreme” or the tiny pathetic puppets of the transatlantic imperialist cooperation. Julian Assange will re-appeal.
If you do the wrong thing, your injustice will match the logic of the inquisition of the dark ages.
The monument of Julian Assange will be erected in any case. This is unavoidable and will not be related to any decision of yours.
The only difference if you will do the wrong is that it will be erected over your infamy.
And a few words to your Queen (the throne throng are not my compeer, therefore it’s you who shall forward my words to her):
Despite her age she looks still lucid enough to remember the words of De Gaulle for Sartre:
“On ne met pas Voltaire à Bastille, sinon le peuple le détruiront sur nos têtes“.
I wish you all doing a good job.
Engin Kurtay
