I thought he was like one of the most important whistleblowers of our time exposing war crimes and shit. Some of you don’t wanna see him live another day, why is that?

    Oh, you’re right, Assange isn’t American. I keep confusing him with the other whistle blowers. It can’t be treason, though I’m sure there’s some kind of “attack by a private person against the state” law.

    I’m pretty sure the USA can ask for extradition if someone’s behaviour damaged Americans in some way. Hackers ransomwaring American companies and sometimes movie pirates get extradited to the USA, regardless of citizenship.
