... dead man walking, green-lit, by at least three former presidents, least 8 U.S. agencies, no matter the outcome, dearest Julian Assange is doomed. And, he knows it: Assange Wins High Court Victory In Temporary Reprieve From Extradition To US | ZeroHedge Not even Jesus Christ himself had been cross-hair'd, by the sheer number of spooks and kleptocrats targeting our boy, Julian Assange. The moment he's set foot a free man? Won't be, for long. Jesus, they ceremoniously nailed, to the cross. Licking their lips, smiling ear-to-ear, our boys at the CIA, they have something else in mind for the likes of him, entirely. Samuel, '04 Ruthiemobile
The Romans did that cross thing to a lot of people and I'm not sure how ceremonious they were about it really. However ceremonious it may have been, I don't think that contributed a lot to your experience if you were the guest of honor. We've mostly kind of decided that sort of treatment, and a lot of others similarly popular in those times, aren't really things we do now. That strikes me as a positive development.

meh. I can get through a day or two without thinking about Assange. If I see the mutt dressed in orange and being frog-marched down the ramp of a C-17 at Leeward Point Field in GTMO then I will certainly shed no tears on his behalf. OTOH I don't think he's worth the fuel to drive a Reaper drone to wherever he's located, to say nothing of the cost of a AGM-114 Hellfire ($150k and up depending on options) to assist with his elimination.
