Bull S***! Assange himself is a hacker who has been directly involved (even bragging about it in a book) in hacking into the NSA. He has enticed US citizens to commit treason. He has willfully and maliciously stolen and destroyed private property. He is no different than the soviet agents who hired paid Aldrich Ames to reveal government secrets or the Nazi agents who enticed Quisling to turn on his country and reveal battle plans.
And? He’s not a US citizen, nor is he in our country.
