That's pretty arguable. Assange is in chat logs with Manning who then passed Assange a password hash and with Assange saying he will attempt to get it cracked.

That's pretty arguable.
Assange is in chat logs with Manning who then passed Assange a password hash and with Assange saying he will attempt to get it cracked. The password would have given Manning admin privileges on SIPRNet, allowing her to pull more files to leak and better cover her tracks.
That's being pretty directly involved in leaks imo.

- jiggawatts 4y agoMeanwhile Trump had top secret documents at his house while a private citizen that he wasn’t supposed to have there even while President. What do you think his punishment will be? A decade in jail? Having to flee to another country and hide in an embassy to escape extradition and torture? No? Why not? Upsetting people in power is a “crime” in every country, with the corollary that the reverse is not true: people in power can do whatever they want to the weak without fear of consequence. If you think otherwise, come back in a few months and comment below about how many years in jail Trump got for actually doing something much worse than what Julian failed to do.
