Reply #27: And what business is it of this country what happens in Sweden?

I hope anyone who tries from this country, gets their head handed to them. Assange is a hero in most parts of the world. I hope he is being well protected and that anyone who lays a hand on him from this country, gets arrested and thrown in jail.

Did you know that the U.S. simply cannot send their bounty hunters into other countries? Are you so insulated from the rest of the world that you actually think some American talk show host has any right to interfere in the laws of another country?

And exactly why would you support silencing these people? Do you think that even if Assange is murdered by the U.S. that the leaks will stop? He will then become a martyr for the cause of free speech and the exposure of corrupt governments everywhere, and even more people will join the effort to uncover corruption. As for arresting him, what a joke. The CIA has trumped up charges against him, he has his own lawyers, and I hope they get to the bottom of who is behind those smears. If anyone can do it, Wikileaks can.

The man is a hero to every decent person in the world. How come Democrats are on the dark side of this all of a sudden? Back in the Bush years, they would have been cheering Wikileaks, we were begging for real news. I truly hope that it is not a case of 'we must protect our team no matter what crimes they commit'. That was what we criticiized the right for, we were supposed to be different, weren't we?

Did you see what those documents revealed about Obama collaborating with Republicans to stop Spain from prosecuting Bush torturers? Stunning information. But I'm glad we know now and will no longer fall for the lies we are being told.

We owe a lot to Assange and the others who are fighting to shine a light on evil everywhere. Unless you don't think torture and the illegal slaughter of innocent people is evil?
