Julian Assange agrees to US extradition

if Chelsea Manning's sentence is commuted.

Or at least, that's what Wikileaks tweeted a week ago.

Now that Manning's sentence has been commuted, who thinks Assange will allow himself to be extradited? (Not me.)

If Obama grants Manning clemency Assange will agree to US extradition despite clear unconstitutionality of DoJ (US Department of Justice) case."

The decision was made a week after WikiLeaks said their founder would agree to return to the US after four years in the Ecuadorian embassy in London.

A tweet said he would return to face possible espionage charges should Manning be released.

It said: "If Obama grants Manning clemency Assange will agree to US extradition despite clear unconstitutionality of DoJ (US Department of Justice) case."

Julian Assange has been living in the Ecuadorian Embassy for more than four years after being granted asylum in order to avoid extradition over allegations that he raped a woman and molested another in Sweden.

1. Well why not, Trump will pardon him

2. In Trump's Washington Assange might even receive a Government position.

Rape and molestation will no longer be considered a disqualifying thing.

3. These thread titles lead to disappointment

5. Don't blame me, blame Julian Assange. His org did state that he'd

allow himself to be extradited.

We should hold him to that -- or expose him as a liar.

4. Does anyone really think that Assange's word is worth anything?
