Assange political extradition case in UK and US

This is the most interesting and most informative video I have seen in a long time. It’s fortunate that Alexander, speaking from personal experience as a British lawyer, could explain to us non-Brits the British system which differs from ours.

Assange is indeed a hero to many people, but he has also caused a great deal of damage to many people too. The millions of personal and private diplomatic cables leaked on his website were sent between corresponding parties who were extremely knowledgeable of any given situation. As a result, we, the self righteous public, who commit no wrong, can and often do get the wrong end of the stick. The following is an example of such an instance.
