Julian Assange has been arrested

[McRocket]

'WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has been arrested at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, police announced Thursday.

This is a breaking news story, more to come...'

Julian Assange has been arrested - CNN

Interesting.

 

[JWBooth]

It’s CNN, best wait on a reliable source.

 

[JWBooth]

Brit papers have pics. So it is real. Ecuador knuckled under to US pressure.

 

[Disir]

This is going to be horrific.

 

[easyt65]

Remember how someone tried to break into the Embassy to get to him, failed, and fled - we never learned who that was?!

His life is now potentially on the clock....the countdown has begun...

 

[JWBooth]

This is going to be horrific.

Truly. The man is a hero, should be proclaimed as such. That he is hated and persecuted by governments is all the evidence a right thinking person should need.

 

[easyt65]

I will not go as far as declaring him to be a Saint...Julian Assange is a criminal. What he did may have resulted in a lot of good, but he still committed crimes.

 

[tyroneweaver]

I think it's either or with this guy. Either he knows a lot or is just wind.

He betrayed the principals he claimed to represent when he allowed his site to be used by Russian intelligence, he does not have a friend left in the world except Putin and Trump. Now we get to find out what he got in return for letting himself be used by authoritarians.

He has been after Democrats for a long time, and its about time.

Good, I hope the piece of shit gets put in solitary and never gets to touch a piece of technology again.

Julian Assange is a criminal.

What law did he violate?

No he hasn't. His inexplicable posting of Russian hacked emails to influence the election for Trump flies in the face of his stated goals and betrayed the only people in America who would have gone to bat for him. It makes no sense for a man supposedly devoted to press freedom to help Putin and Trump.

Assange is no hero and no one is above the law

I like Assange.

Hatred of Assange is more like a partisan type of hate in the US.

 

[JusticeHammer]

Then he is a hero.

Julian Assange is a criminal.

What law did he violate?

He is nothing more than a fence. He dealt in stolen merchandise.

He didn't betray his principals. You may feel he betrayed your principals.

That is a good point. One cannot betray that which they do not possess.

Were you still at the kid table when the Afghan War Diary was released? Or were you just giddy that it nailed your opposition?
