Your sympathies for Assange are badly misplaced. The guy is an radical anarchist scumbag who’s would destroy counter-terrorism and military operations worldwide if he can.

I have no "misplaced sympathies" for the man. Hell, I'd put a bullet in his head myself if he were standing in front of me. What I do feel is misplaced is the focus on him, instead of those (presumably US citizens) who leaked the info to begin with. It makes absolutely no sense at all.

My main point is that Assange is right at the center of the problem — without him and his “Wikileaks” young Bradley Manning would be just another unknown, ineffective frustrated loser — Assange is the huge enabler of this treasonous behavior, not some sidelight.
