Wow. When I was in Sydney I was surprised at how many protests around there were about Julian Assange... didn't really understand why they cared about him or the US. Guess that worked?
It's pretty similar to the US claiming jurisdiction over Ukrainians running torrent websites from Ukraine. Or over random Afghanis who share their first name (something extremely unique like Omar or Abdul or Mohamed) with a supposed terrorist, enough to kidnap to torture them.
Any decent American patriot, anyone with any love for America and its people and its reputation, would want it to not be committing heinous war crimes.
The people who committed treason are the ones who dragged us into multiple illegal wars based on fabricated evidence.
Those war criminal fucks cost us trillions and trillions of dollars, and are responsible for milllions of deaths. Assange tried to prevent that, and has paid a terrible price for doing so.
