Sure. Why should one country care if classified info is leaked about another country? A country will only be concerned if it is their country that had the leak. No hypocrisy in that.
You people are funny. Like this post about reading the espionage act. Anything to defend someone who hurts the US. That's how you commies work. Espionage is espionage and all the intelligence expersts are calling it that. I would believe them way before I even listen to you.
If Assange has an "accident" then every finger will be pointed at the USA. It might give satisfaction to some but it will be a public relations disaster. In addition, that will tell governments all over the world that it is okay to assassinate people you don't like. Who knows, the next victim after Assange could be an American.

Well, well, all the anti-government people are now defending government.

That's never stopped them before.

Commie? You're funny! Do you often call people names when you don't know what to say? The espionage act pertains to patriotism----American citizens.
Furthermore, it's an outdated law. It was written PRIOR to the First Amendement, which makes it unconstitutional in the context of the press.
Have you read our Espionage Act? I highly recommend you read it. Also read the analysis from many of America's top legal experts.
Legal experts shmeagal experts. They aren't experts in anything but spinning the law in the direction they want to go with it for political reasons. I've heard top military personnell say this is definitely espionage. How couldn't it be?
The Feds are trying to get him on violating the Espionage Act. I don't see the first amendment even beinbg an issue. Assange isn't protected under our Constitution. Our Constituion does NOT extend into Sweden.
The world needs more people like Assange. To expose the BS that governments do. I hope he will never be found, but nobody escapes the CIA.
Castro has survived the CIA for decades.
