February 21, 2018 by Joshua Caplan
On Tuesday, WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange pointed out something bizarre about actor George Clooney’s interview with Netflix host David Letterman.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Below is a trailer for the interview.
“Interview between Clooney and Letterman is odd. Clooney instantly engages in a series of male dominance displays against Letterman, man-handling & trashing the older man. Then the contained mini-doc of Clooney’s parent’s home looks like a backgrounding piece for a Democratic run,” tweeted Assange.

There are things about Julian Assange which I found strange as well...
About George's interview with Letterman:
To me it makes perfect sense to show his parents' home and have the interview with the Iraqi refugee when Letterman tries to focus on George's humanitarian work. To fill a 60 minutes interview, they could have talked about George's career for the whole time (which could have filled the time as well but would have been a reminiscense to the 'good old times' which you'd do with somebody who's 25 years older) or focussed on politics which had let to a media storm and is something they both may not have wanted to do.

Please help me understand, isn't Julian Assange represented by Amal Clooney. Isn't it odd for him to be talking about the man Amal calls her husband.
Doesn't Julian Assange have bigger problems. Why would he feel the need to critique George Clooney's interview. I don't understand the negative tone.
“The first Letterman interview was with Obama. Clooney, the second (and current). The home is replete with a terrified (of not acting ‘right’) Iraqi refugee used as a prop. Invasive and time consuming. The money must have been insignificant, so why bother?” added Assange.
Correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't this a shed a negative light on his attorney Amal Clooney. "The home is replete with a terrified (of not acting ‘right’) Iraqi refugee used as a prop". If Julian Assange believes this is true, who would take Amal seriously when she stands to represent him?
I mean no disrespect, I'm trying to get clarification regarding the information that was posted.

Not sure if Amal's team is still representing him, but even so, I think he's free to make a throwaway comment on a tv interview with George Clooney.

His comment"a terrified (of not acting ‘right’) Iraqi refugee used as a prop" is extremely bizarre.
Words carry power, he has every right to make the comment, I can't understand why he would make it about the counsel representing him.
His comments make me question Amal Clooney's motive, to bring an Iraqi refugee to George Clooney's parents home town.

He has a right to his opinion, he may feel Amal and her team didn't do enough for him.
Things haven't turned out the way he wanted so he has an ax to grind with her.

How would Assange know this young man was terrified and not acting right.
He has never met him simply his opinion not a fact.
I'm sure if he didn't want to do the interview he wouldn't have I'm sure no one forced hit to participate.

Ladybug, please don't conflate the two separate issues. One has nothing to do with the other.
The young Yazidi Iraqi was already in the US when he met the Clooneys having fled from ISIS. They are merely helping him with his education and care in a foreign land after everything he has been thro. (Much like the case of Valentino Achac Deng from South Sudan who was helped by so many in the States such as the NappaValley wine growers when he returned to set up his school).
Amal was part of Assange's law team when Sweden police wanted him extradited on rape charges brought against him there and he was in the UK. Nothing to do with Wikileaks and everything to do with an expectation that the Swedish courts should come to the UK to take him which they refused to do. She is no longer on that case.

PAN,
Let me see if I understand you correctly, the Yazidi Iraqi was already in the town, George Clooney's parents reside in. Amal Clooney has nothing to do with his arrival in the states. She learned of his stay here and they are helping him with his education and his care. That all sounds great!!!
I've heard time and time again Amal Clooney was representing Julian Assange, I've never heard anything about a team; and I've never heard Amal Clooney and her team were no longer representing him.
With all that said I still find Julian Assange statement:
"The home is replete with a terrified (of not acting ‘right’) Iraqi refugee used as a prop. Invasive and time consuming. The money must have been insignificant, so why bother?"
Extremely odd.

Well, Ladybug, he is in my opinion.
It is tragic to think that he and Edward Snowdon felt within their rights to do what they have done...........
Ps Oh, and by the way the young Yazidi man was in New York when the Clooneys met him. That's exactly what Amal said on Letterman.....

PAN, I understand your concern.
The drive to do whatever, at any cost is the perspective driving global interest.
Thanks for clarification on the young man's location.

There’s a picture somewhere on COH of Amal and the other lawyers that Amal teamed with walking with Assange. I also thought I read here that another lawyer took Amal’s place on the Assange legal team at some point. I may be having brain freeze ....

Donnamarie, here is where we're at with Assange's barristers.
2016 Jen Robinson, QC Doughty Street Chambers, Amal's friend from Oz and ring carrier at the wedding. (Currently in some sort of relationship with Jeremy Corbyn's spin doctor)
Since then QC in the UK is Mark Summers QC from Matrix Chambers, formed by one Ben Emmerson QC. formerly Doughty Street and briefly Ellen Barkin's 'fiance'. Met at the Clooney wedding.
It would also appear that he has a Swedish lawyer, Per Samuelsson and a Spanish one (?) called Garcon. Must have some money somewhere!

Please don't take this the wrong way but what you don't know about George and Amal Clooney could fill libraries.ladybugcngc wrote:I've heard time and time again Amal Clooney was representing Julian Assange, I've never heard anything about a team; and I've never heard Amal Clooney and her team were no longer representing him.
I think we've had this conversation before about how ill-informed you are, and yet you continue to post opinions based on knowing very little of what you're talking about. Just because you've never heard of a thing doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Amal isn't a lawyer in the way that you're thinking of. She works in teams because that's the style of working in the type of law that she does. I don't think she's solely handled a case in the past 10 years or so, has she?
Coming back to the subject of conversation, Assange watched a TV show and felt that in his opinion, the involvement of the Iraqi refugee seemed odd to him. IMO this is a piece of throwaway television critique, not a deep, meaningful comment that bears deep investigation.

No offense taken. With all do respect we are NOT talking about George and Amal Clooney's life history.

Among Amal's list of clients, Julian Assange was frequently mentioned; I don't ever remember him presented as a client of Amal's team. And, I don't remember any blaring notice Julian Assange was dropped as a client. I am aware attorneys often work as a team, usually with one attorney designated the Lead. With all that said, your right I don't know the intricate details of how Amal's work is structured, and I don't know why I would need to know, to make a statement or write my opinion.

Very probably it was mentioned on this site and you missed it. I don't follow Amal's work very closely and was aware of it, and that info would have come from this site because I don't bother reading about her anywhere else.ladybugcngc wrote: And, I don't remember any blaring notice Julian Assange was dropped as a client.

I believe Julian Assange to be weird, yes. I also find it weird that he bothered to tweet his opinion about a tv interview with George Clooney.

Assange may have said what he said for attention , it didn't worked .
I heard what Amal said, also the Clooney's , they stated why they wanted to help this young man.
Opinions are like noses everyone has one and they are all different.
Just because Amal was his lawyer doesn't mean he knows anything about her thoughts and the things she does.

Admin But we are: we're talking about Amal.
Yes Amal as it relates to Julian Assange, in reference to a George Clooney interview; not their life history.
Admin But what you've read and heard seems to be very limited and not full picture that pretty much every one else on this forum is aware of.
Yes, when you don't know, you ask. That's why I asked the question isn't Julian Assange represented by Amal Clooney?
Admin Very probably it was mentioned on this site and you missed it. I don't follow Amal's work very closely and was aware of it, and that info would have come from this site because I don't bother reading about her anywhere else.
Your right, I come to George Clooney's Open House to read about George Clooney. If this was and interview between David Letterman and Amal Clooney I would not be interested.
Admin Because how can you possibly have an opinion on a subject (any subject, not just Amal's work) that you don't know anything about?
Admin In this specific case, your opinion was that Assange's criticisms of the TV show are significant given that Amal is his lawyer. If that were true, I think you'd have a point. But Amal doesn't seem to be his lawyer any more and he always had a number of lawyers representing him.
I gave no opinion about Amal's work. I said the statement was "bizarre" given he was represented by Amal. That's why I asked the question isn't Julian Assange represented by Amal Clooney". Understanding Amal no longer represents him, I still think Assange statement is bizarre. And last I checked, in this country I have a constitutional right to my opinion.

Assange has a political agenda. That's why he spouts of a lot nonsense about a lot of things. Assange/Wikileaks is a tool of the kremlin. Clooney is a celebrity democrat. Enough said in my opinion.

Well, they only get one vote. But, they are different in the same way that a celebrity advocate is different from an advocate.

Hopefully, folks do their own research on any celebrity endorsed issue or policy.
Would the article that started this thread even be "published" if George was not a celebrity? I don't see Assange taking the time to attack unknown democrats. Letterman didn't spend an hour with me either, but I could probably fill one with my opinions! No one interested though. For some reason they are in George's. I wonder why that is? I guess it's because he's just a run of the mill democrat.

Thank goodness, you also have a constitutional right to your opinion.
I'm kinda' scared to ask, however how is a celebrity democrat different from any other democrat?

Assange is a rapist in my opinion and that is based on an older interview he did back when he was trying to cough up some support for his case.
He stated that his kind of sex and tastes in sex is along the lines of roughing and sounds abusive as well. I don't remember where I read that, which magazine had it or if it may even be on here.
In this interview he also said something about one of the women accusing him. he said she had started to protest about the sex, saying she didn't like it and it hurt, or something along that line. He seemed to understand she was protesting, but chose to say he thought she was playing along with his style of sexual behavior.
He doesn't realize, maybe he does now, but then, he was admitting that his sex wasn't for everyone and many women would not care for it. He admitted that he continued to have his rough sex with her and she was very upset afterward.
To me, he was defending his behavior as if it was normal to force his bad style on any woman who no longer wanted it. I think he thought because there may be other men who also do this in Sweden, he felt safer to assume he would be understood.
I don't blame Amal's team fr switching up from him. If he was still talking that way, safe in his haven, they may have realized like me, that he was indeed a rapist as his accusers were saying.
The issue of his(and Edward Snow) hacking many data bases and making it look like he buys all of it(what with?) and then sells it to the highest bidder, is just one more criminal thing to me. I see a criminal and rapist. And yes, VERY bizarre.
Some of you may be able to find that interview he did, and verify his lucid, willing admittance. I really don't like this bizarre man. He is trying to get attention from putting focus on George. Hes strange. Strange Assange. Well, JMO anyway.
