People in Europe grieve for those of us who are living inside this massive police state. Especially people in Europe who suffered under the Third Reich.
Assange is not an American citizen. He has broken no laws while being inside the USA. Anything he has done that is against our set of laws and protocols, he has done from outside the borders of this nation state. So how and why should he be arrested?
