Treat Incitement Seriously or Expect More Gabrielle Gifford Killing Sprees

Julian Assange and WikiLeaks staff codemn the Tucson shooting and hope for the recovery of Gabrielle Giffords and the other wounded. They point out that Sarah Palin and other US reactionaries have also incited violence against Wikileaks staff and contributers. Full text at link.

Sarah Palin urged the US administration to “Hunt down the WikiLeaks chief like the Taliban”. US politician Mike Huckabee called for the execution of WikiLeaks spokesman Julian Assange on his Fox News program, and Fox News commentator Bob Beckel, referring to Assange, publicly called for people to "illegally shoot the son of a bitch." US radio personality Rush Limbaugh has called for pressure to "Give [Fox News President Roger] Ailes the order and [then] there is no Assange, I'll guarantee you, and there will be no fingerprints on it.", while the Washington Times columnist Jeffery T. Kuhner titled his column “Assassinate Assange” captioned with a picture Julian Assange overlayed with a gun site, blood spatters, and “WANTED DEAD or ALIVE” with the alive crossed out.

WikiLeaks spokesman Julian Assange said: "No organisation anywhere in the world is a more devoted advocate of free speech than Wikileaks but when senior politicians and attention seeking media commentators call for specific individuals or groups of people to be killed they should be charged with incitement -- to murder. Those who call for an act of murder deserve as significant share of the guilt as those raising a gun to pull the trigger."
