Wasn't the arrest over a year ago? How much time is left on the sentence?
This is terrible, but 5 years is pretty tolerable. Assange is in locked up for being a journalist and faces life in tortuous conditions.
Also, write your MEP and vote pirate party.
Assange isn't merely a journalist. He collobarated with russian security services and was on their payroll during his work on their "RT" initiative.
Please stop with the C.I.A. talking points. Have some self awareness. All of this McCarthy red scare shit is embarrassing.
