  29 May 2020, by siawi3

  Colonial India was a captive market for British products and services. The baneful consequences of a commercial concern enjoying political power but answering only to its shareholders became apparent during the Bengal famine of 1770–1771. To modern eyes the most odious aspect of British rule was its racism.

Manning is a hero for exposing war crimes; Assange, who merely assisted her, is being persecuted in plain daylight. All these years later, that war remains alive and well in a courtroom in London; there Julian Assange—who revealed the truth of the killing—will struggle against being one more casualty of the U.S. war on Iraq.
