Actually, the espionage was conducted by that Bradley fellah who stole the documents in the first place.Treason, no, he's not a US citizen or an immigrant here. Espionage, quite possibly.

No doubt that what assange is doing is international governmental blackmail. I think the timing of it is not coincidental with the FCCs stated intention of implementing "Net Neutrality" and the Congresses introduction of the Cyber Security Act of 2009 (S.773). If Wikileaks is threatened, a growing host of "hackivists" threaten to deploy Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks against them. They have already done this to Mastercard, Visa, Sarah Palin, the attorney for the women filing sex crimes charges in Sweden. They are working on PayPal and have threatened Twitter and FoxNews. So, the leaks will continue. Then there is the "poison pill" that was developed in the event that Assange was kidnapped or killed. Meanwhile, the government is now claiming that it NEEDS net Neutrality and Cyber Security to protect american interests. Assange is no saint of freedom of expression. He is an avowed anarchist communist. His supporters are all "social democrats" (the new term for people who believe in Marxism but don't like the baggage of the term).I don't doubt that Bradley committed espionage AND treason. While Assange cannot be considered to have committed treason, he was a partner in espionage. Heck, his threat to release secret factories and whatnot that are critical to national defense to everybody, including terrorists, sounds a lot like blackmail to me as well.
The current charges against Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is sexual assault in which he had "consensual sex where the condom broke". I never knew that was a crime. They must be desperate to silence this guy.
Its Sweden, where apparently if you are having sex with someone and the condom breaks but you continue to have sex, they can charge you with a sex crime if the other partner felt "uncomfortable" continuing sex without an intact condom. Go figure.The current charges against Wikileaks founder Julian Assange is sexual assault in which he had "consensual sex where the condom broke". I never knew that was a crime. They must be desperate to silence this guy.
Social democracy as a concept is well over a century old and was formed in explicit opposition to Marxism.Assange is no saint of freedom of expression. He is an avowed anarchist communist. His supporters are all "social democrats" (the new term for people who believe in Marxism but don't like the baggage of the term).
How could "the Progressives" possibly be on both sides of this issue?The Progressives have built a trap. Either let Assange continue leaking all this secret stuff, or, give the federal government the power to control all of the media (you know, to protect us). They are on both sides of this issue and they are trying to squeeze the middle.

I am pretty sure that Stuxnet was an Israeli product.And in all this, you don't need Net Neutrality to put a stop to it. If we can manufacture the virus that is continuing to sabotage Iran's nuclear program as we speak (I suspect it's us) then I'm sure we can hack Wikileaks and some of these associated hackers in a particularly nasty way. My bet is our countercyberterrorism unit is busting its butt as we speak.
Social democrats oppose Marxism....but want to implement Marxist ideas. Interesting.Social democracy as a concept is well over a century old and was formed in explicit opposition to Marxism.

The only person who could possibly be charged with treason in this whole affair is Bradley Manning, being a US citizen, and it's very questionable if his crime even amounts to that.I believe the electric chair is the usual punishment for treason of this magnitude.
Isn't supplying state secrets to a foreign power pretty much the text book example of treason? Think Rosenberg.The only person who could possibly be charged with treason in this whole affair is Bradley Manning, being a US citizen, and it's very questionable if his crime even amounts to that.
That's espionage, not treason. Manning didn't steal missile blueprints and gave them to Iran, he illegally acquired classified documents with the intent to publish them in the US, among other countries.Isn't supplying state secrets to a foreign power pretty much the text book example of treason? Think Rosenberg.
Terrorists? Who is talking about terrorists all of a sudden? In any case, you don't have the right to prosecute non-US citizens for treason, no.Or are you one of those who believe America has no right to prosecute terrorists who aren't American citizens?

where is the content of the material mentioned as a mitigating factor in the secrets act?That's espionage, not treason. Manning didn't steal missile blueprints and gave them to Iran, he illegally acquired classified documents with the intent to publish them in the US, among other countries.
So you're happy to watch traitors simply renounce their citizenship and get off scot free, is that it?Terrorists? Who is talking about terrorists all of a sudden? In any case, you don't have the right to prosecute non-US citizens for treason, no.
