Not a chance. They would charge him with whatever they could find - true or not. Probably in a secret court no doubt.

  Or just kill him.

    The US kills a lot of people and I'm not particularly confident that they'd refrain from killing Assange out of good will or decency or anything, but I think they'd have to do it in some fairly underhand manner that they could do just as well outside the US.

      He does have a 'chronic lung infection' similar to Hugo Chavez - apparently. http://rt.com/news/assange-chronic-lung-infection-844/ http://rt.com/news/assange-chronic-lung-infection-844/ http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=is-cancer-contagious http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=is-cancer-c...

      That's what the INSURANCE.AES256 file is for, right?
  • mhurron 13y ago
    Because if there is one thing the US is known for, it is waiting for legal jurisdiction to kill someone. If they were going to kill anyone ever for anything they didn't like, it would have happened already to a whole lot of people. Life is not a James Bond film.

      You mean, like it waited to kill a minor citizen that was in Yemen to visit his father accused ( but never judged ) for terrorism?
      • bausson 13y ago
        I see what you did there. I wonder what's wrong with me, it took me three times to understand what was the weird stench coming from this sentence. I then understood than 'minor citzen' thing you did. Well played, almost got me.
        • kelvin0 13y ago
          I must be slow as hell, I really can't see what you supposedly detected. Mind explaining to the rest of the class?
          • bausson 13y ago
            I may have over-read it, but I understood it as than citizen being targeted because of his presence in a third-rate country, and therefore by default a possible terrorist and an affordable loose. What is strange is the use of 'minor'. As far as I know, their is officially no caste system in the US, so no minor or major citizenship. It may also be another case of me over-reacting, 'minor' meaning in this situation 'only one'. . I suppose the referred story is there: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/18/opinion/the-drone-that-killed-my-grandson.html http://www.nytimes.com/2013/07/18/opinion/the-drone-that-kil... but I don't know if it's the only time that happened. Close enough I suppose.

              Au contraire mon ami. The entendre is there. Look at the victim's age... the victim is indeed a "minor" and a second class citizen in the US.
        • speeder 13y ago
          I said minor as in legal minor in the US... Sorry, english is not my first language, and although I tried to write in several ways, this was the best I could :( (I don't remember the exact age of the murdered, only that he was a minor)
    • kelvin0 13y ago
      That is the funniest argument I ever read. Ignorance is bliss as they say.
      • mhurron 13y ago
        Ah so you have information regarding the mass amount of people the US didn't like and has assassinated?
        • kelvin0 13y ago
          Oh my ... you have some catchin' up to do. Here's one you can start with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r42oejmpkgw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r42oejmpkgw

      Assange is holed up in a secure embassy on foreign soil. They would need to break and enter in order to kill him which would be difficult and likely to start diplomatic issues.It's harder than you give it credit to kill someone cleanly in those circumstances.
• Kiro 13y ago
  Are you supporting Julian Assange?
  • RyanZAG 13y ago
    Definitely, yes.
