Julian Assange once said: ‘I understood this a few years ago. And my view became that we should understand that Australia is part of the United States. It is part of this English-speaking Christian empire, the centre of gravity of which is the United States, the second centre of which is the United Kingdom, and Australia is a suburb in that arrangement.
‘And therefore we shouldn’t go, “It’s completely hopeless, its completely lost. Australian sovereignty, we are never going to get that back. We can’t control the big regulatory structure which we’re involved in in terms of strategic alliances, mass surveillance, and so on”.
‘No, we just have to understand that our capital is Washington. The capital of Australia is DC. That’s the reality. So when you’re engaging in campaigns, just engage directly with DC, because that’s where the decisions are made.
‘And that’s what I do, and that’s what Wikileaks does. We engage directly with DC. We engage directly with Washington, and that’s what Australians should do.’
