[Editor's Note: This is how we received it. We are searching for anything else but the claim that Assange is (being) extradited is currently unsubstantiated.]
Assange is extradited to die in the US empire.
Wikileaks now puts EVERYTHING online in return.

He should have gone to Russia.
The fact that Russia is the place to go to escape U.S. tyranny makes the U.S. look bad.
The fact that Russia, and not the U.K., is the place to go to escape unjust extradition to U.S. tyranny also makes the U.K. look bad.
Russia actually looks good in all this?

Times do change. It's not happening in the near future, but China may one day be freer than the US/UK/Western world.

No, Russia doesn't look particularly good in all this. The fact that Russia will probably give you refuge if you've poked Uncle Sam in the eye with a stick (and not the Russian Bear) doesn't make it a great place. Just, sometimes, a better place than SuperMax. If Assange had also been publishing stuff re Russia, they'd have invited him to have a nice cup of tea, or maybe to enjoy the view from a 7th floor balcony.

More neutrally, Russia and China are the two main powers that resist U.S. influence. If you're going to make an escape from the grasp of the U.S., or set up your illegal piracy web site, you should probably gravitate towards their spheres of influence in Asia.
