Today, April 11th, the <a href=\"http:\/\/ipa-aip.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">International Peoples\u2019 Assembly (IPA)<\/a> is mobilizing to call on US President Joe Biden to drop the charges against Assange.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2006, Julian Assange founded WikiLeaks to publish leaked classified government documents that reveal crimes committed by those in power. WikiLeaks has published countless reports exposing the U.S. Government\u2019s war crimes, coverups, and civilian murders. In 2010, WikiLeaks published \u2018Collateral Murder,\u2019 a video of the 2007 Baghdad airstrike that killed more than a dozen people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On April 11, 2019, Assange was forcibly arrested at the Ecuadorian embassy in London by the Metropolitan Police and brought to Belmarsh Prison where he remains today. From there, he appeals against his extradition to the United States, where he could face up to 175 years in prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The real reason for Assange\u2019s imprisonment is clear: to serve as an example in an attempt to silence the voices that cry for justice and an end to all wars.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the IPA we actively fight for Assange\u2019s freedom, in defense of the truth and against brutal U.S. imperialism.
