Countries being US bitches has been true many times but it gets overused as well. ASSange will get his day in court with the best defense lawyers in the world representing him & we will see how strong the case against him is. Not to mention he never seemed to "Wikileak" anything concerning brutal regimes & dictators especially his pal Putin! Who kills journalist! His defenders don't seem to mind.

...I think a lot of folks defend Assange simply because he is at war with America & therefore nothing he does is not excusable in their worldview.

...I thought he was suppose to turn himself in if President Obama freed Chelsea Manning? Of course that was a LIE as well.
