How long before 0bama awards Assange with the medal of Freedom? 0bama is not all that much unlike Assange or Manning in his personal views of America.

This little schmuck is almost as arrogant as Obama.

I am a little surprised the CIA or somebody else hasn’t figured out a way to simply get rid of this p.o.s.

I actually have no problem at all with Assange. He did not take an oath to the U.S. and U.S. Army. Bradley Manning did, however, and deserves to be executed. Yes, I said executed. People have been KILLED as a result of his releases. Believe me on that. It is far more messed up than the media has told the public.

Maybe Assange’s WikiLeaks is approved by Obama.

I heard an interview of Julia’s mother on the BBC the other day.After listening to her for 10 minutes I came to realize that she’s a bigger whore than is her daughter.

When you release a country’s secrets to that country’s enemy, YOU ARE NOT A “WHISTLEBLOWER”. You are a murderer who causes the deaths of a lot of innocent people. Assange is a sexual pervert and a commie pig. He’ll make an outstanding citizen of Ecuador.

Exactly. The U.S. government is blowing smoke up our collective @sses if it thinks it has any authority over this guy.

I'm not even all that interested in what happens to Bradley Manning, either. Personally, I'm more concerned about how some low-level quiff had access to these so-called "classified materials" in the first place.

So you have no problem that he released military secrets serious
damaged diplomatic relationships ?

I do agree that Manning should have already been turned into Jenny Craig for worms ....

I'd stand one *right* behind the other and solve the problem with 30 cents' worth of lead.

Doesn’t matter what oaths Assange may not have taken. His actions are those of an enemy combatant.

He’s not charged with sex offences in the US.

He’s charged in Sweden.

It’s kind of hard to make the case that he’s an “enemy combatant” when the U.S. hasn’t even formally declared war against an “enemy” at all.

Why is it always incumbent upon the USA to make the declaration? Germany declared war on the USA back in 1941; did we really have to make a counter-declaration? Iran and other “non-state aggressors” have also declared war on us. Assange most definitely waged war on us by taking our state secrets and making them public. Acts of war are still acts of war.

“So you have no problem that he released military secrets serious damaged diplomatic relationships ?”

Really, the only damage this did was to the egos of all those State Dept wienies and the dragon lady Hillery. And if there is one thing the elites can’t stand it’s being made to look like the fools they are which Assange and Wikileaks definiatey did. Also, the guy is not even a US citizen so I fail to see how we have any authority over him or that he is bound to keep our “Secrets”.

Actually he did the US a favor in a way as before the system where Manning, a low level solider, could pull off information that he had no need to know about has been closed up quite a bit tighter. I’m almost positive that more than just Manning have been making use of that system so Assange may have helped plug a leak that has been going on for probably years.
