WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange faces what could be his final court hearing in England over whether he should be extradited to the United States to face spying charges.

“Julian has been indicted for receiving, possessing and communicating information to the public of evidence of war crimes committed by the U.S. government,” his wife, Stella Assange, said. “Reporting a crime is never a crime.”

    That is an overly simplistic view. Russian government has done good things, It funds healthcare for it’s citizens.

    Now don’t get me wrong Russian government is fundamentally evil. But governments are much too complex to only do good or evil things. Every single government has done both many good and evil things.

      I was referring to broader geopolitics. Specifically leadership by US in Germany, Japan and South Korea are strong success stories. Can you provide a similar example for russia?

      What do you know about the evolution of healthcare under putin in the last 25 years? Can you make a factual statement about the evolution of russian healthcare without searching? Or is this a sophomoric attempt at rhetoric?

          Please, you live in a sheltered environment, you know very little about the world and you’re telling me to grow up?

          How many languages do you speak? How many countries have you lived in for more than 12 months? How many continents?

          The whole Assange piece is for lazy, internet edgelords. Assange is a right wing shill that collaborates with the russians; he his whole human rights thing is a ruse.
