Where is Saipan, Marianas Islands, where Assange is to appear in a US court tomorrow? & why do Americans have a court there? 12,565 km from Washington DC, almost as far as you can get away from anywhere on Earth. If that doesn't justify what Assange did, then what else would?

If that doesn't justify what Assange did, then what else would? #politics#Assange
