Its weird that US is willing to prosecute Australian citizen for treason because he exposed US documents. I find it interesting that Wikileaks leaked different info for years and only now when it does not suite US or UK they make a news. Also too many funny comments form people saying he is a terrorist. It seems US definition of terrorist is changing all the time.
There is no record that anyone ever died because of what Wikileaks has done so far. He also did not steal the information it was leaked or given to him by someone else. If i was trying to prevent this from happening again i would be looking for those responsible people. Also ask yourself how can an army private gain access to all this secret info. Why is most of the hostility directed at Assange and not the government who failed to protect the classfied info. And so on...
