RE: Is Julian Assange a Good or Bad Guy? I’m torn.....

in #news6 years ago

I’m am also a bit torn but unlike Manning, Assange never swore an oath to protect US secrets and had no obligations to comply with US law as he wasn’t a citizen.
The idea of the US arresting foreigners in foreign lands for breach of US laws is very disturbing.
It’s hard enough to comply with one’s own nations laws let alone those of other countries with different laws.
If other countries adopt this approach it will become impossible to behave legally anywhere.

the u.s. follows one law; keep the power, keep the military, and make other countries pay tribute to us by buying our dollars and bonds.

the only oath is justice
