I get the impression that here "classified" means "embarrassing".

All he had to say was that Russia wasn’t behind the Hillary email hack.

I doubt they’ll refuse, they don’t want to go down that route.

Sounds ominous. What insider information do you have about Donny’s possible reaction to a refusal that the rest of us don’t? Where’s you get that information?

So Trump supporters, is this guy, a partner and friend of Roger Stone, a hero or America-hating scum?

Once again, the Trump supporters run away from answering a simple question...

What's so hard? Is this guy a hero or scum?

Coming up on 12 hours and not one single Trump supporter reply...

Well, if he was scum I guess we would have heard before now, so that just leaves us with Trump supporters thinking a guy that colluded with Chelsea Manning, Roger Stone, and the Russian FSB is a hero....

Figures...

Assange has been indicted in the U.S. on 18 charges over the publication of classified documents. Prosecutors say he conspired with U.S. army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning to hack into a Pentagon computer and release hundreds of thousands of secret diplomatic cables and military files on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. U.S. authorities say WikiLeaks’ activities put American lives in danger.

The U.S. government has no case against Assange. It should be spending its time indicting Bush, Obama, Trump, Cheney, etc for war crimes cause there really is a case in that!

He did put lives at risk, it is true. He absolutely would not listen to urgent and genuine pleas from around the world not to reveal local names in places of conflict like Afghanistan.

"As you make your bed, so must you lie in it", my mother used to say.

I do not envy Julian's life, or the poor people caught in the complicated web he has somehow woven.

Should be refused since America refused to extradite the CIA agent who killed the teenager in the UK.

I doubt they’ll refuse, they don’t want to go down that route.
